Neural networks enable real-time plasma control circuits

Researchers have developed neural network emulators to generate virtual circuits for real-time plasma shape control in tokamak devices. This approach uses a large dataset of simulated equilibria to train emulators that can rapidly derive accurate control vectors. The method aims to improve upon traditional techniques that rely on precomputed virtual circuits, which can degrade in performance as plasma configurations evolve. AI
