While the primary emphasis is on heliophysics and space weather, contributions addressing applications of Machine Learning in Astrophysics and Earth Sciences are also strongly encouraged. Particular attention will be given to enabling technologies that underpin next-generation observational capabilities, including advanced instrumentation, high-performance computing, data assimilation frameworks, photonics and optical systems, remote sensing platforms, and autonomous space-based systems. Contributions involving large-scale data analysis, modeling, predictive methodologies, and sensor development are especially welcome.
The event is organized by the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), the University of Vale do Paraíba (UNIVAP), and Mackenzie Presbyterian University, with the support of the Brazilian Society of Space Geophysics and Aeronomy (SBGEA).
