Machine Learning in Space

Dear ML-Enthusiasts,

please find the agenda for the FRA: Machine Learning meetup on Thursday, May 19th below:

Agenda

1. Deep dive into ESA's Mars Express Power Challenge

ESA has launched a Machine Learning Challenge regarding the thermal subsystem of the Mars Express Orbiter in order to help it provide more science. You can find details at https://kelvins.esa.int/mars-express-power-challenge/

Redouane Boumghar, Research Fellow in Data Intelligence & Robotics at European Space Agency(ESA), and members of the Mars Express Flight Control Team will give us:

• a deep dive into the Challenge motivation,

• give insight into the mission control and platform data provided,

• and will present the current leaderboard

2. Discussion, Brainstorming (& optionally team formation)

We would like to give the opportunity to discuss approaches to the problem and directly ask your questions to the Mars Express mission control members.

If you have participated in the Challenge so far, you are invited to bring your insights and get feedback from the audience regarding possible improvements. For people who would like to participate in a team - here is the forum to meet the right people for your team...

Looking forward to seeing you,
Sebastian
