AI³-2024
Symposium on Materials Theory, driven by Aphrodite, ab initio Computations, and Artificial Intelligence

Paphos, Cyprus, November 5 – 9, 2024 

 

 

Scope of the Symposium

The AI³-2024 symposium covers recent advancements in ab initio theories for condensed matter science and materials research. A focus lies on the marriage of these theories with novel symbolic and statistical artificial intelligence approaches.

The Symposium is aimed at graduate students and postdocs working in the wider field of our NOMAD activities.
