You're invited to come to our next event, Data Science in 3D Printing and Manufacturing! https://lnkd.in/e9XBWDDp Date and time Wednesday, June 5 · 6 - 8pm EDT Data Science in 3D Printing and Manufacturing Hosted by Canisius University and sponsored by Buffalo Manufacturing Works - EWI, join us to learn about data science in 3D printing and manufacturing from Dr. Luke Mohr. According to Dr. Mohr, "The opportunity for data scientists to work on interesting manufacturing problems has grown as the industry becomes increasingly digital." Dr. Mohr will discuss approaches he and his team use to predict part quality and performance in real-time as the 3D parts are built and how they use machine learning to optimize manufacturing processes. Applications he and his team work on include 3D printing, electric vehicles, and jet engines. Dr. Mohr will explain how they leverage physics-based models and Bayesian techniques to address key data challenges in the industry, including the need for uncertainty quantification, model explainability, and cost restrictions to produce new data. Don't miss out on this opportunity to expand your knowledge and connect with like-minded individuals! Food will be provided!
