UA’s Alicante Town University Venue (c/San Fernando, 40) is hosting an event today Wednesday at 19:00. uniting science and cinemaedited by, Luz del Mar Cinema Association.

The day begins with a short explanation. G2net COST Transaction, about how the female scientist is presented in the cinema by examining some films. After the speech, short film Patterns – Signals from the Universe (Patterns – Signals from the Universe).

This short film was funded by COST G2net Action, produced by the Luz del Mar Film Association, and was created by the Virgo Collaboration (European collaboration mainly for the direct detection of gravitational waves) and University of Valencia.

The language of the short film Englishbecause the purpose is to make this material available to members. 28 European countries and the 2 associated non-European countries that are part of the COST G2net Action and all interested persons. For the show in Alicante Spanish subtitles.

The purpose of the short film is to disseminate the scientific content of COST G2net Action through a different audio-visual format; here these contents are part of a story that is shown throughout the entire program. 20 minute short film. Probably not all the details will be clear at first glance and a study will be done in the coming months. don’t do that The event will end with an open speech where both the technical and scientific team of the short film will be present and answer the questions of the participants.

Information about the G2net project

The European project G2net is a COST Action. combines geophysics, gravitational waves and Machine Learning techniques. It started in October 2018 and will end in April 2023. There are 28 European countries and two non-European partner countries (Australia and the United States) participating.

HE revolutionary discovery gravitational waves directly in September 2015 became possible thanks to the synergy of fields such as physics, mathematics, information science and computers. Currently, there is a growing interest in Machine Learning techniques, Deep Learning, classification problems, mining and data visualization, and in general, the development of new algorithms and techniques to efficiently process complex data and a wide range of big Big Data. various disciplines, from the social sciences to the natural sciences, according to the association.

rapid increase computing power of computers The development of innovative techniques for rapid data analysis will be vital in the exciting path of gravitational wave astronomy, particularly in matters such as control systems. next generation detectors, noise removal, data analysis and data management tools. The performance of ground-based gravitational wave detectors at low frequencies is greatly affected by their ability to eliminate seismic and environmental noise.

This COST G2net action aims to build a broad network of scientists working in the fields of gravitational wave physics, geophysics, computer science and robotics, with the shared goal of addressing the challenges in data analysis and characterization of noise from gravitational wave detectors.
