Priority Action Artificial Intelligence (AI) Priority Action Artificial Intelligence (AI) 2. Why is it important? searching for patterns in data discovering regularities in data Make more accurate and faster analysis, use for experiment planning, data analysis and instrument control More efficient use of resources (time, training, resources) 3. EU funding opportunities AI-related areas: robotics, big data, health, transport, future and emerging technologies Robotics Digital skills
Machine Learning for Data Analysis Machine Learning for Data Analysis searching for patterns in data discovering regularities in data classifying into different categories use for data analysis and instrument control supervised learning classification unsupervised learning no categories known, clustering training datasets need to be preprocesses, sufficiently large and complex to provide testing ground for ML algorithms, software environments, hardware training of neural networks is computing intensive (e.g. NVIDIA DGX-2 for GPU computing at RAL) need for high level support teams
Priority Action: Artificial Intelligence Technologies Priority Action: Artificial Intelligence Technologies AI in explorative phase, but certain cases already clear: Case I: (GI)SANS neural network data analysis, much faster than 2D-fit Case II: Reflectometry model selection for data analysis, much faster than fit (runs on smartphone) Case III: Instrument Control suggest best instrument setup for particular experiment, pro-active failure detection Case IV: Noisy Data feature recognition, optimize experiment time
Priority Action: Artificial Intelligence Technologies Priority Action: Artificial Intelligence Technologies Actions: Coordinate Case-activities between facilities Share tasks, exchange ideas Share computing resources (particularly for training phase) Good collaboration opportunities with LEAPS ILL/ESRF/ISIS/DIAMOND-Meeting on AI November 12-14, 2019 (P. Mutti co-organizer) EU Horizon Europe common proposal with LEAPS in 2020-call
Actions Actions - - Open Data & Data DOIs Open Data & Data DOIs Disseminate facilities and EU-consortia (PANOSC, EXPANDS) data policies open data, data formats, data catalogues, data DOIs Proposal in Germany (DAPHNE) Establish common standards for data formats (NEXUS, MANTID) and DOI-schemes Common communication plans, material and data management Concrete action: provide recommendation for data format
Actions Actions - - Computing Data Processing & Analysis Computing Data Processing & Analysis Continue the SINE2020 WP10 workshops on data treatment software on an annual basis Continue to maintain and develop Mantid, SasView, BornAgain, QENS library, and MuhRec/KipTool Develop roadmap for the diffraction domain with a view on the SINE2020 Standards & Guidelines Concrete action: provide recommendation reduction and analysis tools Promote container solutions for software
Actions Actions - - Automation & Robotics Automation & Robotics Robots for automated sample changing and holding high-throughput SANS, stress diffractometer, cryogenic sample changing; also detector/camera holding Automated experiments robot connection & instrument control & data reduction for optimized experiments; also automated QR-code based sample recognition Link to WG3, Sample Environment Initiative to organize a workshop to collect ideas and needs participants from WG4, WG3 for sample environment and also scientists Connection with LEAPS
