(Virtual Event) Fourth IAEA Technical Meeting on Fusion Data Processing, Validation and Analysis
Objectives
The objective of the meeting is to provide a platform during which a set of topics relevant to fusion data processing, validation and analysis are discussed with the view of extrapolation needs to next step fusion devices such as ITER. The validation and analysis of experimental data obtained from diagnostics used to characterize fusion plasmas are crucial for a knowledge based understanding of the physical processes governing the dynamics of these plasmas. The meeting will aim at fostering, in particular, discussions about research and development results that set out or underline trends observed in the current major fusion confinement devices. A special focus will be dedicated this edition on data analysis requirements for ITER and DEMO with a particular attention paid to Artificial Intelligence for getting automatization and confidence on the control processes.
Topics
The meeting will cover the following topics:
- Data Analysis for Fusion Reactor
- Data analysis preparation for ITER and Software Tools for ITER diagnostics
- Uncertainty Propagation of Experimental Data in Modelling Codes
- Applications of probabilistic inference and statistics
- Real time prediction of off-normal events, with particular attention to disruption and predictive
- maintenance
- Inverse Problems
- Image Processing
- Causality Detection in Time Series
- Synthetic Diagnostics, Integration, Verification and Validation
- Deep Learning
- IMAS/IDA Integration
- Big data
