The applications of machine learning in today’s world encompass all fields of life and physical sciences. In this paper, we implement a machine learning based algorithm in the context of laser physics and particle accelerators. Specifically, a neural network-based optimisation algorithm has been developed that offers enhanced control over an ultrafast femtosecond laser in comparison to the traditional Proportional Integral and derivative (PID) controls. This research opens a new potential of utilising machine learning and even deep learning techniques to improve the performance of several different lasers and accelerators systems.
