Invited Papers from the 2nd International Conference on Data-Driven Plasma Science

This Special Topic collects articles presented at the 2nd International Conference on Data-Driven Plasma Science, held in Marseille, France 13-17 May, 2019. Advances in experimental and computational plasma science research are producing larger and more complex data sets. Deriving value from the increasing volume and diversity of data now available provides opportunities for greater insight into complex plasma systems and their interfaces with materials and other phases. In order to extract optimum value from data and fully exploit data interpretation, development of new techniques is required. Embracing data-driven and artificial intelligence discovery in plasma science and technology will enable a new era in this field of research and development.
