8:00-8:30 Badging and Coffee

Chen Breezeway


8:30-9:15 Keynote: Dr. Jennifer Ngadiuba

Chen 100, overflow Chen 130

Jennifer Ngadiuba Dr. Jennifer Ngadiuba is Associate Scientist with Wilson Fellowship at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, the leading facility for particle physics research in the United States. She is specialised in the application of AI to particle physics towards more intelligent detector systems, data reduction and data analysis strategies. This ensures the efficient extraction of the most fundamental physics information from the multitude of data collected at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s highest-energy particle physics experiment located at the CERN laboratory (Switzerland-France).

9:15-10:00 Keynote: Dr. Anima Anandkumar

Chen 100, overflow Chen 130

Anima Anandkumar Dr. Anima Anandkumar is the Bren Professor of Computing and Mathematical Sciences at the California Institute of Technology, and co-founder of the AI4Science initiative at Caltech. Her research interests are in the areas of large-scale machine learning, non-convex optimization and high-dimensional statistics. In particular, she has been spearheading the development and analysis of tensor algorithms for machine learning.
