    DETAILS

    Gravitational-wave astronomy is undergoing rapid growth, with expanding observational datasets from LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA and pulsar timing arrays driving new astrophysical discoveries. Analyzing these data presents significant challenges, requiring precise modeling of gravitational-wave signals and instrumental noise, fast and accurate detection algorithms, and efficient Bayesian inference methods to extract astrophysical parameters.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, including simulation-based inference, and advanced architectures such as diffusion models and transformers, are transforming the way we analyze data in many areas of science—and gravitational waves in particular. AI-driven methods are already enhancing gravitational-wave detection sensitivity, improving parameter estimation performance, and offering sophisticated ways to manage systematic uncertainties, such as waveform modeling and detector calibration errors. However, next-generation observatories such as LISA, the Einstein Telescope, and Cosmic Explorer, will introduce new challenges, including millions of sources, overlapping events, and louder and more complex signals. Rapid inference will also be crucial in facilitating multi-messenger observations.

    This workshop aims to gather 50 leading researchers from the gravitational-wave astronomy, artificial intelligence, and astrophysical modeling communities. Participants will identify the main challenges and opportunities for AI in the next decade of gravitational waves, identifying new strategies to enhance parameter estimation and signal detection and advance waveform modeling for current and next-generation observatories. Through interdisciplinary collaboration, the workshop will establish a strategic roadmap for integrating AI into gravitational-wave astronomy, maximizing scientific returns from future observational campaigns.
