in the analysis of huge volumes of spacecraft data. Data science (DS) and ML are revolutionizing the way scientific problems in the space sciences are conceptualized and addressed, and have shown to be greatly successful in modeling and data analysis. In the
wake of the immense volume of data acquired by the numerous spacecraft missions, methods such as time series analysis, segmentation, Bayesian methods, probabilistic inference and surrogate models, to mention a few, are critical for future scientific findings
and discoveries. Though ML and deep neural networks are powerful tools for data mining and pattern recognition, and to make predictions, the interpretability of the models built on these techniques have not been explored adequately until recently.</span><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Helvetica;color:#555555"><br>

range of topics including but not limited to: advanced statistical methods, deep learning and neural networks, times series analysis, Bayesian methods, feature identification and feature extraction, physics-based models combined with machine learning techniques
and surrogate models, space weather prediction and other domain topics in space sciences where statistical methods and AI are applied, model validation and uncertainty quantification, turbulence and non-linear dynamics in space plasma, physics informed neural
networks, information theory and data reconstruction and data assimilation.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
