Machine learning facilitates “turbulence tracking” in fusion reactors

A team of researchers has demonstrated the use of computer vision models to monitor turbulent structures, known as "blobs," that appear on the edge of the super-hot fuel used in controlled-nuclear-fusion research. The super-hot fuel, or plasma, is held inside a tokamak device (right photo). On the left, a "blob" highlighted in yellow is shown in a synthetic image.
