UCSB Mathematician Studies Machine Learning for Science

As reported by Harrison Tasoff, for the Santa Barbara Noozhawk:

The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded a collaborative grant to a group of researchers, including UCSB mathematician Paul Atzberger, to establish a new data science research center. The Physics-Informed Learning Machines for Multiscale and Multiphysics Problems (also known as the PhILMs MMICCs center) will innovate on existing machine learning techniques and develop new ones that are better adapted to problems in the sciences and engineering. The grant will provide $600,000 over four years to support Atzberger’s research group at UCSB.

PhiILMs will be a collaboration between Atzberger and colleagues at Stanford University, Brown University, and MIT.
