In this workshop, we will explore the application of AI to electron, neutron, and x-ray scattering. Topics of exploration will include deep learning, automation, and research data infrastructure. The output of this workshop is expected to be a white paper
on the status of AI for the scattering communities and present opportunities and challenges.
