What happens when you apply machine learning to 3D printing?
Silicon Republic June 28, 2021
Researching the future of manufacturing at I-Form, Dr Vivek Mahato believes intelligent systems can help to further reduce waste and improve product quality.
After achieving a bachelor’s degree, Dr Vivek Mahato started his career as a web developer in India. But his interest in researching data science drew him to Ireland.
He completed a master’s degree in University College Dublin, followed by a PhD in machine learning in additive manufacturing (more commonly known as 3D printing) at I-Form, the Science Foundation Ireland research centre for advanced manufacturing.
While UCD is the lead institution for I-Form, its research spans other academic partners, including Dublin City University (DCU). It’s here that Mahato took up a postdoctoral position in order to extend the...
