DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Rudy Morel (Simons Foundation)\n\nAbstract\n\nIn thi
 s lecture\, we will examine the emerging paradigm of foundation models for
  physics.\nRapid advances on scientific problems such as jet tagging in pa
 rticle physics\, gravitational-wave detection in astrophysics\, or weather
  prediction in meteorology suggest that the next breakthroughs in the phys
 ical sciences will be driven by machine learning. Recent work has increasi
 ngly adopted the foundation model paradigm for science\, in which models a
 re trained on broad and heterogeneous datasets spanning multiple physical 
 regimes\, and later adapted to a wide range of downstream tasks\, includin
 g prediction\, parameter inference\, and other inverse problems. We will s
 how how fundamental concepts such as multiscale dynamics\, partial observa
 bility\, and generalization\, guide the design of these foundation models\
 , through examples and hands-on exercises in fluid dynamics and solar phys
 ics.\n\n \nLink to google colab: \nhttps://colab.research.google.com/dri
