TUT14: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Batteries
THURSDAY, JULY 30 | 2:00 - 3:30 PM
ABOUT THIS TUTORIAL:
Machine learning (ML) promises to compress the time needed to characterize battery performance, lifetime and safety. By coupling ML with physical models and metrics, that learning can bridge across materials, chemistries and cell designs. This tutorial
will discuss the most popular ML techniques and resources and review recent work in the electrochemical literature. Applications include materials discovery, image recognition for quantitative microscopy analysis, fast charge algorithm development
and life prediction.
