| Apr 20, 2023 | MS Teams | TACym Tunnelling 101 Webinar: Machine Learning in Tunnelling – Not If, but When! Abstract: Machine Learning (ML) is playing an increasingly role in our personal and professional lives. But what does it mean, exactly? Is it the same as or different from Artificial Intelligence? Can I use it in tunnelling? Will it take my job?! This presentation will introduce how various ML algorithms work, discuss how you could use it in your tunnelling projects, and present some cutting-edge examples of ML in tunnelling projects around the world. Speaker Bio: Josephine Morgenroth, P.Eng., Ph.D. Josephine is the Technical Services Manager at RockMass Technologies in Toronto, Canada. She has 9 years experience in consulting for mining and tunnelling projects, most recently working on the Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant Outfall project in Toronto. In 2022 she completed a PhD on the topic of practical applications of machine learning to underground rock engineering. Josephine combines her industry experience and research expertise at RockMass to develop new digital mapping technologies, and strongly believes in leveraging digital tools to improve engineering decision making. She is passionate about EDI initiatives and empowering underrepresented groups in STEM through intentional action. When: Thursday, April 20th, 2023 at 3pm (EST) / 12pm (PST) Outlook link/Google Calendar link Where: Please follow the Teams Link to join or contact info@tunnelcanada.ca for the Teams link. | Contact TAC-YM@tunnelcanada.ca https://teams.m... |
