Abstract:
Across the DOE, the wealth of data, robust automation, and stringent requirements for control, simulation, and data acquisition, make 鈥淏ig Science鈥 experiments 鈥 particle accelerators, photon sources, telescopes, etc. 鈥 ideal targets for AI/ML. At SLAC, the Machine Learning Initiative was created to address these challenges throughout the lab鈥檚 science mission. In this talk, I will present several AI applications from the accelerator domain, including autonomous optimization and anomaly detection. I will also talk about extensions to other large-scale experiments, principally observation of gravitational waves.
