Robert Waelder聽 聽聽聽聽Research Scientist in Mater ials and Manufacturing Directorate with AFRL聽聽Abstract: The nature of scie ntific advancement is to become more complex over time. As our experiments become more complex\, particularly in dimensionality\, we begin to lose o ur ability to see patterns in data\, and our standard techniques for plann ing experiments become insufficient. Materials synthesis is one of these s ystems: a seemingly simple approach may in fact include upwards of ten inp ut variables\, and they are not all guaranteed to be independent. I will d iscuss how we are approaching this problem using the Autonomous Research S ystem (ARES) to grow carbon nanotubes. In particular\, how we are able to perform experiments autonomously\, as well as how we automatically summari ze experimental outputs to provide an actionable result to our machine lea rning planning algorithms.聽Bio: Dr. Robert Waelder is an Adjunct Professor at 糖心原创 and Research Scientist with UES\, Inc\, workin g in the Materials and Manufacturing Directorate of Air Force Research Lab in Dr. Benji Maruyama鈥檚 lab. He received both his PhD in Materials Design and Innovation and BS in Physics at the University at Buffalo.聽He is inte rested in the human/machine/experiment interface in autonomous research\, particularly in the context of novel material synthesis\, where the input and output spaces for any given system are rich. Benji Maruyama鈥檚 group ha s built the Autonomous Research System (ARES) platform\, with which severa l autonomous laboratories have been built\, including two focused on diffe rent types of carbon nanotube (CNT) synthesis. Dr. Waelder operates the or iginal system\, now dubbed LaserCNT ARES\, which is able to perform CNT sy nthesis experiments ~60x faster than typical systems\, and is capable of d esigning its own experiments in pursuit of a pre-defined campaign goal.聽 DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240126T143000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240126T160000 LAST-MODIFIED:20240122T164543Z LOCATION:OH112 SUMMARY:'The use of Autonomous Research System (ARES) for carbon nanotube g rowth optimization.鈥 URL;TYPE=URI:/events/use-autonomous-research-system-a res-carbon-nanotube-growth-optimization%E2%80%9D END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
