SMLIA2024

In recent years, applications of machine learning for science and technology have been growing under the name scientific machine learning (SciML). Techniques of this field are expected to accelerate essential processes in industry, such as physical simulations and the discovery of new drugs. Although more and more researchers and industrial companies are paying attention to this research area, there are still few opportunities to communicate with each other.

This workshop aims to introduce the latest results in this field and to provide opportunities to meet, interact and start collaboration. More specifically, this workshop has the following aims:

• to present the latest research in scientific machine learning to clarify the benefits of the techniques in this field to the audience.
• to provide a platform for the research groups in this area to meet, interact and start closer collaboration.
• to provide a platform particularly for young researchers to present papers, and to interact with researchers in this field.

This workshop covers research topics on machine learning and/or scientific computation and/or its industrial applications. More specifically, topics will include, but are not limited to:

• machine learning for scientific computing
• machine learning methods for physical model discovery
• physics-informed neural networks
• operator learning
• applications of the above to industrial issues, such as
  • control theory,
  • computational fluid dynamics,
  • computational electromagnetics,
  • drug discovery

Call for papers and submission guidelines

We welcome paper submissions from all related areas with the above topics. This conference will be organized in a similar format to workshops of the major AI conferences, that is,

• Submitted papers will be reviewed by the Program Committee, and the accepted papers will be made available on the website. However, authors retain the right to publish elsewhere.
• Submission of papers that are under review or have been recently published in a conference or a journal is allowed.
• Each accepted presentation will be assigned to either an oral presentation or a poster presentation, according to the review reports.

Submission options:

• Abstract submission: If you opt for a poster presentation, you should just submit a title and an abstract with no more than 200 words.
• Paper submission: If you want your paper to be a candidate for an oral presentation, a paper submission is required.
• Each accepted paper will be assigned to either an oral presentation or a poster presentation, according to the review reports.
• A paper should not exceed 2 pages, excluding references and supplementary materials.
• All submissions must be in the pdf format based on the SMLIA style file. Please see template.pdf in the SMLIA style file for other details.

How to submit a paper
