DSI kicks off 'bull sessions' for data science enthusiasts
Oct. 18, 2018 -
In upholding its mission of centralizing data science activity at LLNL, the DSI launched an informal event series on July 25, 2018. The new “bull sessions” are intended to facilitate networking, brainstorming, and problem-solving among data scientists and engineers across the Lab.
Dan Faissol, a member of DSI’s Data Science Council, states, “We hope these bull sessions will also serve as a...
Machine learning points toward new laser target designs
Oct. 8, 2018 -
When the Trinity supercomputer at Los Alamos National Laboratory was first coming online, calls went out for research projects that would test—and potentially break—the new system. LLNL researchers answered the call, and their work with Trinity and machine learning could disrupt 40 years of assumptions about inertial confinement fusion (ICF). The project essentially turned Trinity—then a 8.1...
