On 13 December 2023, at 4:00 PM, the Association of Young Scientists and Specialists at JINR invites everyone interested to the next seminar that will take place in the Big Hall of the JINR Scientists’ Club (6, Joliot-Curie street, left side).

An FLNP junior researcher Bulat Bakirov will deliver his lecture “Convolutional neural networks for neutron tomography tasks.” The speaker will talk about the problems of neutron tomography and their optimal solutions.

Computer tomography methods have become widespread and continue to gain popularity in fields related to physics, such as medicine, materials science, geology, archeology, etc. Neutron tomography stands out from the rest of the methods due to the properties of the interaction of neutrons with matter. Still, there is a number of unsolved problems concerning this method. They are related to the duration of the experiment, image quality, and computational resource intensity. The development of neutron tomography requires the use of new mathematical algorithms for data processing and reconstruction. The most promising algorithms in this area are those based on ultra-precise neural networks.

There will be a small coffee break at 4:00 PM, which precedes the seminar. The report will start at 4:15 PM.
