Welcome

Overview:

This workshop concentrates on a confluence of two research fields of machine learning technique and material science. Now, the material science has a chance to reap the benefit of recent advances of machine learning technology associated with the nature of multi-layer structures universally expected in the feedback feature of realistic systems. Machine learning has a possibility to produce novel methods for describing strong correlation in materials and molecules and computing properties to facilitate material design.

This workshop includes talks from both younger and more established researchers on the following three topics:

  1. Lectures on fundamental aspects of machine leaning, including its history, essential idea, breakthrough and problems.
  2. Lectures on global introduction of applications of machine learning in many research fields.
  3. Talks on the development of theory and method for material and chemical designs by using material informatics and machine learning.
  4. Talks on purely material sciences involved with complex quantum many body systems in physics, chemistry and biology.

We welcome you to join the workshop.
