Motivation

We are pleased to announce the 3rd ICFA Beam Dynamics Mini-Workshop on Machine Learning Applications for Particle Accelerators will be held in Chicago, Il, USA. This will be the third workshop in a series that began in 2018 at SLAC, CA, USA followed by a second workshop held at Villigen PSI, Switzerland in 2019. A third workshop had been planned to be held in Seoul, Korea in 2020, but unfortunately had to be canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The goal of this third workshop is to continue to work on building a world-wide community of researchers and engineers interested in applying artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to particle accelerators.

The workshop will consist of four topics:

1. Tuning/optimization/control
2. Prognostics/alarm handling/anomaly-breakout detection
3. Data analysis
4. Simulations/modeling

Talks will be given by practitioners from various accelerator facilities around the world. The workshop aims to:

• Collect and unify the community’s understanding of the relevant state-of-the-art ML techniques.
• Provide a tutorials of machine learning for accelerator physicists and engineers.
• Seed collaborations between laboratories, academia, and industry.

Please contact the organizers if you are interested in attending.
