Unleash the power of data science in the realm of self-driving laboratories. This remote, asynchronous course empowers you to apply data science concepts to materials discovery tasks. You’ll create Bayesian optimization scripts, explore advanced optimization topics, and adapt templates to create an advanced optimization setup for a materials discovery task. Topics will include multi-objective, constrained, high-dimensional, multi-fidelity, batch, asynchronous, and domain-aware Bayesian optimization. Additionally, you’ll learn to share your findings by uploading datasets to a data repository, creating benchmark models, and hosting models on data science platforms.
This course is presented in partnership with the Acceleration Consortium at the University of Toronto.
This is an online, self-directed course, and you can work through the modules at your own pace. You can expect to complete the course in a month but have up to 1 year to complete it.
