Has anyone any knowledge of machine learning being combined with nuclear fusion data? I ask because I may be pursuing this intersection.
(Anecdotes from HNers can be more insightful than research papers).
- sanxiyn 11y agoI don't know anything about this area, sorry about that. Quick search found this: Fuzzy logic and support vector machine approaches to regime identification in Joint European Torus (JET), Plasma Science. http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TPS.2006.875825 http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TPS.2006.875825.
- Simorgh 11y agovery interesting article! It seems that machine learning could be used to stabilise a nuclear fusion reactor through a real-time control strategy, e.g. optimising the reactor's environment/conditions via micro-adjustments.
- sanxiyn 11y agoI think it would be interesting if data used in the article is posted to Kaggle as a competition.
- cocoablazing 11y agoThe article previously posted concerns design of a reactor for inherent stability. What you are thinking about is called active control. Here is a paper investigating such control of a fusion torus: http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/pop/21/8/10.1063/1.4893418 http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/pop/21/8/10.106...
