Abstract
As US Nuclear Regulatory Committee (NRC) recently announced machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) will be the main research topics in the nuclear industry. One of the applications is the development of new nuclear fuels using digital twin technology, in which machine learning-based data analysis methods will significantly contribute to accelerate developments. This chapter introduces the ML-based uncertainty quantification and sensitivity analysis methods and shows its actual application to nuclear fuel development codes: a finite element-based nuclear fuel performance code BISON.
