The TMS Machine Learning for Materials Science 2018 course provides a unique opportunity to learn from recognized experts who are on the leading edge of developing machine learning  and applying it in materials science and engineering. In just two days, attendees will gain the tools, knowledge, and contacts needed to run basic experiments and accelerate the introduction of machine learning techniques and approaches in their own work and organizations.

What You Will Learn

By the end of this course, attendees will be able to:

  • Create, critically evaluate, and interpret machine learning models for materials
  • Describe how machine learning can positively impact their work as scientists
  • Organize their data in a way that’s suitable for machine learning
  • Design an experiment that incorporates machine learning, including:
    • Create a sequential learning workflow for their experiment
    • Predict the properties of an unknown material with a machine learning model
    • Develop experimental material candidates that satisfy target conditions/properties
Learn more about this program on the Course Curriculum page.

Who Will Benefit

Professionals in materials science and engineering who want to learn how to incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in to their research and/or product development workflows will benefit from attending this course.
