Success Stories: Machine Learning Leadership

Machine learning and AI (artificial intelligence) are transforming research across many fields, from energy to healthcare. One of the latest milestones is the formation of the LEADS (LEarning-Accelerated Domain Science) Institute, which is a collaborative effort to make scientific machine learning more accessible and impactful for researchers working with complex data.

As one example, Yulia Gel, a professor in the Dept. of Statistics at Virginia Tech, has been named a key contributor to the LEADS Institute, which is supported by the U.S. Dept. of Energy to advance scientific AI and data science. The institute brings together researchers from 14 universities and national labs to develop next-generation algorithms and tools for scientific discovery.

Here is how this can help:

• Accelerate innovation in scientific discovery by creating advanced machine learning methods.
• Enhance interdisciplinary collaboration across institutions and fields.
• Empower institutions and national labs to tackle complex data challenges.
