Description:
From targeting of mineral deposits to connected mining environment, there is no doubt that artificial intelligence will play a key role in our industry in the near future. However, the subject can seem obscure and is often hard to grasp, which creates apprehensions from geoscientists.
This practical workshop will introduce the participants to the applications and evaluation of Machine Learning in mining geoscience. The main concepts and best practices for applied Machine Learning to exploration and mining will be reviewed. The course will be set in a practical framework, with a focus on the understanding and usage of different algorithms without detailing the mathematics behind each algorithm. Through a series of case studies, examples and hands-on exercises the attendees will learn how to best apply Machine Learning to different datasets and most importantly, evaluate the results produced by the algorithms.
Organizer:
This course is organized by Mira Geoscience
Audience:
