Research projects

The Centre is focussed on addressing the data challenges presented by research in astronomy, nuclear, theoretical and particle physics, accelerator science, mathematical and computer science.

Managing, analysing and interpreting large, complex datasets and high rates of data flow is a growing challenge for many areas of science and industry. Recent years have witnessed a dramatic increase of data in many fields of science and engineering, due to the advancement of sensors, mobile devices, biotechnology, digital communication, and internet applications.

LIV.INNO provides a comprehensive training programme to three cohorts of students in data intensive science to address this problem. The focus of the centre will be on addressing the data challenges presented by research in astronomy, nuclear, theoretical, particle and accelerator physics.

Research and development (R&D) is structured across three main Work Packages (WP):

  1. Monte Carlo and high performance computing (WP1) 
  2. Artificial intelligence and machine learning (WP2) 
  3. Data analysis (WP3) 

This framework will be an ideal basis for driving science and innovation, as well as boosting the employability of our students.
