Motivation and Goals of the Project

  • we are seeing an explosion of the amount of data in all accelerator based research fields
    • this is true for all large scale research infrastructures in the research field of Mater:
    • LHC, Belle-2 and future accelerators, EU-XFEL, PETRA-III/IV, BESSY, KARA,....
  • Machine Learning (ML) promises a possible quantum leap in scientific computing and big data analysis
    • enormous compute power through dedicated hardware (GPUs, FPGAs,...)
    • high performance und flexibility in the analysis of complex data

Goals:

  • systematic evaluation and application of ML methods to Particle Physics, Accelerator research and photon science
    • explore possibilities and limits
  • development of a solid hardware and software infrastructure in the centres
  • exploit synergies for establishing cross disciplinary competences in the application of AI/ML methods in the the physics research
