U Researchers Join New NSF-Simons CosmicAI Institute

Jeff Phillips, director of the Utah Center for Data Science, and his colleagues there will develop new ways of training AI systems to recognize salient features of these image cubes, greatly accelerating the preparatory steps that must be conducted before downstream scientific  analysis can begin. 

Other collaborators at the U include Penny Atkins, Research and Science Director of its Scientific Computing Institute, Ziad Al-Halal and El Kindi Rezig of the Kahlert School of Computing, and Joel Brownstein and Gail Zasowski of the College of Science’s Department of Physics And Astronomy.

The researchers will also be supported by the One Utah Data Science Hub, where Phillips and Atkins serve as academic leaders.
