This project is part of the 8th edition of the Graduate-Level Research in Industrial Projects for Students (G-RIPS) summer program at the Zuse Institute Berlin (ZIB).
In the G-RIPS program, twelve outstanding international students from the USA and Europe collaborate with ZIB researchers in an intensive eight-week research experience. Organized in collaboration with the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM) at UCLA, G-RIPS continues to bridge the gap between academia and industry by offering projects that combine academic rigor with practical industrial applications.
The NanoLab project, associated with the Computational Nano Optics Group at ZIB, machine learning methods are utilized to optimize numerical settings for finite-element based optics simulations. The graduate students in this project are Katherine Henneberger (University of Kentucky), Matthew McCarver (University of Kentucky), Bowen Tian (Cambridge University), and Ying-Hsuan Chiang (RWTH Aachen).
