The TWIML AI Podcast (formerly This Week in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence) - A podcast by Sam Charrington - Luni
Categories:
Today we’re joined by Yunfan Gerry Zhang, a PhD student at UC Berkely, and an affiliate of Berkeley’s SETI research center. In our conversation, we discuss: • Gerry's research on applying machine learning techniques to astrophysics and astronomy. • His paper “Fast Radio Burst 121102 Pulse Detection and Periodicity: A Machine Learning Approach”. • We explore the types of data sources used for this project, challenges Gerry encountered along the way, the role of GANs and much more.
