Future of Artificial Intelligence for Science in Japan (FAIRS Japan 2024)Workshop

3 Dec 2024, 09:00 → 5 Dec 2024, 18:00 Asia/Tokyo

ES-Hall (Nagoya University)

We invite you to the Future of Artificial Intelligence for Science in Japan (FAIRS-Japan) workshop. Our goal is to build the AI/ML research directions in each science domain for the next 5 years.

 

There have been rapid advancements in AI/ML research and their use is widely spread in science. However, the research directions and prioritization is not always clear. We believe it can immensely beneficial for the community to get together and discuss:

• Key "domain science" research challenges that are best addressed using AI/ML
• Potential/promising AI/ML techniques that can address those challenges

Logistics

• When: December 3rd to 5th (Tuesday - Thursday)
• Where: Kobayashi Masakawa Institute (KMI) at Nagoya University

Preparation

• Register (link)!
• Submit this form (link) and contribute your inputs
• Join the slack (link) workspace

Important Dates

• Selection process for the financial aid starts: Nov. 1st 2024 (no deadline for application, the selection process continues while the funding lasts)
  • Update on Oct 29: the deadline for visa and financial aid is set to Nov 8th 2024. 
• Registration of those who want to present a poster: Nov 30, 2024

Disclaimers

• Although there is no clear deadline for those who don't need a visa/financial support or present a poster, we will close the registration once the number of participants reaches 70.
• Our financial support is only for domestic travels due to the budget limitations.
