Talk: "Igneous crusts on the Moon and Mars from gravity and topography"
Volcanic and other igneous rocks provide a window into a planet’s thermal history. Here, I will discuss how orbital geophysical measurements taken from NASA spacecraft give us insight into igneous crusts and the early geophysical history of the Moon and Mars. At the Moon, the extreme precision of gravity and...

Intermediate Spatial Data Science and GeoAI with Dr. Caglar Koylu
This workshop introduces concepts and methods in spatial statistics and GeoAI for analyzing such patterns and relationships. Participants will learn about spatial dependence, where nearby observations tend to be related, and spatial heterogeneity and non-stationarity, where relationships between variables vary across space. Through a hands-on case study, participants will use mapping and spatial statistical methods to identify these patterns.
The workshop will also introduce XGBoost as a machine-learning approach for modeling complex and nonlinear relationships and use SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations) to interpret how different variables contribute to model predictions in the social, environmental, and health sciences.
Analyses will be conducted in Python using Google Colab. Some familiarity with quantitative data analysis and spatial data science is encouraged. Prior experience with machine learning or programming is not required.
