Abstract: I will present the phase separation behavior of different sequences of a coarse-grained model for sequence defined macromolecules. They exhibit a surprisingly rich phase behavior, and not only conventional […]
Dense photonic integration requires miniaturization of materials, devices, circuits and systems, including passive components (e.g., engineered composite metamaterials, filters, etc.), active components (e.g., modulators and nonlinear wave mixers) and integrated […]
Zoom link: https://upenn.zoom.us/j/98220304722 Abstract: This talk considers the problem of resilient distributed multi-agent optimization for cyberphysical systems in the presence of malicious or non-cooperative agents. It is assumed that […]
Software engineers never start from a blank page, but rather from an extant and usually long-running project in need of modification (for repair, extension, update, etc.). One way to view […]
Neural compression, which pertains to compression schemes that are learned from data using neural networks, has emerged as a powerful approach for compressing real-world data. Neural compressors often outperform classical […]
The three-dimensional organization of chromatin within the cell nucleus plays a critical role in regulating gene expression, maintaining genome stability, and guiding cellular responses to environmental cues. Despite advances in […]
Directly training deep learning models for applications in large-scale cyber-physical systems can be intractable due to the large number of components and decision variables. Instead, we focus on exploiting spatial […]
RSVP at https://bit.ly/3RzmdVH Learn what confirmation bias is, how to identify it in your own research, and acquire the skills to mitigate it. Yes, it turns out, we’re all biased […]
In this guest lecture, we will cover two recent research thrusts from the RobotiXX lab in taking RoboRacer off-road: high-speed off-road navigation and wheeled mobility on vertically challenging terrain. For […]
The inverse design paradigm has emerged as a transformative approach for the synthesis of nanophotonic structures, offering a powerful alternative to conventional intuition-driven design. By approaching photonic device design as […]
Abstract: Burgeoning energy and water scarcity challenges motivate the development of new membrane materials for charge transport as well as chemical and water separations. This in turn requires an improved […]
