Announcing a Winner!

We are overjoyed to unveil the winner of the first-ever ANZIC Prize for Best Student Publication: Ratneel Deo, a PhD student from the University of Sydney.

Ratneel’s pioneering paper, ‘ReefCoreSeg: A Clustering-Based Framework for Multi-Source Data Fusion for Segmentation of Reef Drill Cores‘ harnesses machine learning to produce an annotated image of a reef core with six lithologies identified.

Ratneel’s exceptional work, coupled with his impressive outreach, put him above a competitive field, setting a wonderful precedent for this new tradition of recognising student excellence.

ANZIC is proud to offer Ratneel a funded opportunity to attend the ANZIC Forum on June 11-12, in Auckland, New Zealand, where he can present his work and receive a commemorative trophy.
