SRP Project Title

Sequential modeling of multi-scale dynamical systems

Topical Areas

Applied Computer Science; Applied Mathematics; Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Systems; High Performance Computing

Abstract

This project develops advanced sequential models to analyze time-series data. The goal is to capture the complex, multi-scale, path-dependent relationships using historic event data. The model is expected to learn both short-term and long-term temporal patterns for an overall reliable forecast.

Desired Skills

Proficient in coding; experienced in optimizing neural networks; interested in transformers and/or high performance computing.

Lightning Talk Title

Sequential modeling of multi-scale dynamical systems

Keywords

Advanced sequential modeling; hierarchical learning; time series forecasting; dynamical systems.
