Computing actively participates in the Fermilab Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD) program. LDRD is a national program sponsored by the Department of Energy that allows national laboratories to internally fund R&D projects that are novel and explorative of new ideas or concepts.
Current projects
- Accelerator Control with Artificial Intelligence
- Graph Neural Networks for Accelerating Calorimetry and Event Reconstruction
- Increasing the photon detector light efficiency in a liquid argon detector by an order of magnitude
- Modeling physical systems with deep learning algorithms
