Low-rank matrix completion is a well-studied problem, for which a rich theory exists, mainly from the optimization and statistical points of view. However, the majority of the theoretical analysis in […]
Silicon's advanced fabrication processes have enabled the miniaturization of complex electronic systems, enhancing performance and efficiency. Recent technological developments have further expanded silicon's utility to integrate photonic systems, merging electronic […]
Contact interactions, including adhesion and friction, are critical to the design of many engineered systems. Currently, most systems rely on materials with static mechanical properties, requiring careful selection of materials […]
Given the widespread use of deep learning models in safety-critical applications, ensuring that the decisions of such models are robust against adversarial exploitation is of fundamental importance. In this thesis, […]
*This seminar will be held in-person in Levine 307 as well as virtually via Zoom. ABSTRACT To make a future where robots are helpful and commonplace, robots must physically interact […]
If learning from data is valuable, can learning from big data be very valuable? It has been, so far, in vision and language, for which foundation models can be trained […]
Cyber-physical systems often include communication networks that ensure data transmission between different components of the system (sensors, actuators, processing units, etc). The presence of such networks renders the whole system […]
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Dani Smith Bassett are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Shubhankar Patankar. Title: Goal-Directed Dynamics of Network […]
In this talk, I will focus on two challenging imaging systems: snapshot compressive imaging and coherent imaging under speckle noise interference. I will begin by reviewing the core mathematical modeling […]
You’ve probably seen reports about reproducibility issues and science gone wrong due to lack of rigor. But what does it mean to do rigorous scientific research? If the word conjures […]
*This seminar will be held in-person in Levine 307 as well as virtually via Zoom. ABSTRACT In this keynote, I will talk about our latest research on creating photo-realistic AI […]
