Blueprinting AI for Science for Exascale (BASE-II) Showcase
Start Time: 10:00 End Time: 17:00On behalf of STFC and the Blueprinting for AI for Science at Excascale (BASE-II) project team, we invite the community to attend the BASE-II wrap-up event where we will showcase the AI/ML benchmarks which have been developed as part of this EPSRC ExCALIBUR funded programme.
The aim of this project was to develop a software suite and relevant software designs to serve as blueprints for using AI for scientific discoveries at Exascale. It was a continuation of the previous good work carried out as part of a Phase I project and an important aspect of this new project. This is the final event for this particular funded project and we will not only show you first hand the benchmarks which have been developed but provide you with know-how and access to the benchmark suite so you can apply these within your field of research.
