2nd Annual NSF Simons AI Institute for Cosmic Origins Science Conference
The recent revolution in AI is fundamentally changing how astronomers observe, explore, analyze, and model astronomical data. The Cosmic Horizons Conference aims to bring together researchers who are actively developing and applying AI/ML methods in astronomy. The conference will focus on:
Recent advances at the intersection of AI and Astronomy and AI-powered progress towards understanding our cosmic origins, from cosmology to habitability.
Methodologies to increase the trustworthiness, robustness, interpretability, and efficiency of AI applications in astronomy.
Preparation for the big-data challenges posed by next-generation observing facilities and approaches for analyzing high-dimensional data.
Building on the success of last year's Cosmic Horizons Conference, which brought together more than 40 presentations and fostered interdisciplinary dialogue across artificial intelligence, machine learning, and astronomy, the upcoming conference will continue to center the needs and ideas of the scientific community as well as provide updates on the Institute's progress and the opportunity to discuss how CosmicAI may best serve the community.
