C2SM AI/ML Planning Workshop
21 November, 9 am - 12 pm, ETH HG E42
Target audience: C2SM members (professors, head of groups), C2SM Ex. Office
With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) / machine learning (ML) in the weather and climate sciences, C2SM is now planning to offer services and support in this field. With this workshop, we intend to provide an overview on ongoing activities in large-scale research projects such as the Swiss AI initiative and ECMWF's WeatherGenerator, as well as to gain a perspective on which AI/ML activities are already going on in the community. We are then going to explore C2SM’s potential contributions to this area and how we are going to set this new activity up within the framework of the working groups.
Please find the agenda, registration form, and input form below.
Please register (and potentially send us your input concerning potential C2SM AI/ML services) until Friday 15 November 2024.
