Machine Learning and Data Science in Planetary Science

Session ID#: 159461

Session Description:
Many facets of research in planetary science rely on analyzing large volumes of in-situ and spacecraft data. Traditionally, these data were collected and analyzed manually. In recent decades, developments in the field of machine learning (ML) have begun to gradually augment traditional techniques, answering the need for automatic methods that can rapidly and intelligently extract information from large datasets in a useful manner.

This session will be dedicated to data driven research that leverages ML and data science to enhance our scientific understanding and return from planetary data and missions. Topics may encompass data analysis on the ground or onboard spacecraft for existing and future missions and instruments. Submissions are welcome for applications across science and engineering, including but not limited to: spacecraft operations and mission planning; surface, atmosphere, and space environment characterization; object detection and classification; change and novelty detection; interpretable methods; and other studies that apply ML and data science methods to planetary science.
