The top 10 states of nuclear
The past few years have seen a concerted effort from many U.S. states to encourage nuclear development. The momentum behind nuclear-friendly policies has grown considerably, with many states repealing moratoriums, courting nuclear developers and suppliers, and in some cases creating advisory groups and road maps to push deployment of new nuclear reactors.

In the past few years, reactor thermal-hydraulic (T-H) study has advanced with the support of machine learning (ML) in many aspects, including automated experimental data analysis, data-driven modeling, and uncertainty quantification. ML also showed promising potential to expand reactor T-H to a wider range of applications to better support advanced reactor deployment, such as digital twin. On the other hand, ML in T-H study has its unique challenges, from data availability and quality, model transparency and interpretability, to licensing readiness. In this panel session, experts from different institutes with a diverse background will share their experience and perspectives on ML for T-H study, including recent progresses, existing challenges and potential solutions, and future opportunities.
