Arctic researchers dive into AI and ML for transformative science in the first Cyber2A workshop
Last week, 20 Arctic researchers gathered in Santa Barbara, CA for the first NSF Cyber2A workshop to learn more about incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques into their research. Topics covered in this workshop included AI fundamentals and tools, AI-ready data, data annotation, neural networks and deep learning, AI ethics, reproducibility, and more. Participant’s research and experiences varied widely. While some researchers are focusing on sea ice and ice-sheet dynamics, others are studying similarities between the Arctic and otherworldly bodies such as Europa. All participants had one thing in common- their interest in using machine learning and artificial intelligence to further their research.
