LIV.INNO congratulates the winners of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics
LIV.INNO would like to congratulate the winners of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics, John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.” The laureates developed methods which are fundamental to Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. These tools have applications in many areas of science and are widely used by students who are studying as part of the LIV.INNO CDT.
LIV.INNO has one of its work packages dedicated to Artificial intelligence and Machine Learning. Around half of the CDTs students are studying PhDs which come under this work package with subjects of study ranging from astrophysics and particle physics to nuclear physics and projects with medical applications. Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence are of ever increasing importance to the LIV.INNO CDT.
LIV.INNO director Prof Carsten Welsch said "The contributions of Hopfield and Hinton have reshaped the scientific landscape, enabling new ways to explore complex phenomena through AI. At LIV.INNO, we are harnessing these breakthroughs to push the boundaries of discovery, from unlocking the secrets of the universe to advancing medical technologies."
Congratulations!
