We are at a transformational junction in computing, in the midst of an explosion in capabilities of foundational AI models that may soon match or exceed typical human abilities for […]
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Raisler Lounge and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Nature presents a captivating confluence of diversity and similarity. In order to make […]
ABSTRACT: In recent years, foundation models—large pretrained models that can be adapted for a wide range of tasks—have achieved state-of-the-art performance on a variety of tasks. While the pretrained models […]
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT What kind of representation do robots need in order to be as generally capable […]
Global energy demand will continue to increase, and the ability of fossil fuels to meet these demands is limited due to the associated climate change concerns. In response to these […]
In this talk, I will describe theoretical and computational strategies based on quantum mechanical calculations, aimed at predicting material properties suitable for the development of quantum technologies. Specifically, I will […]
Formal methods can provide strong correctness guarantees for today's computing systems, but their usage is often restricted to formal methods experts. Formal verification is then bottlenecked on these experts, limiting […]
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Wu and Chen and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Nature routinely makes smart, complex, yet microscopically tiny machines. But how can humans […]
Abstract: Polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) represent a diverse class of materials where manipulating design parameters is crucial for tailoring material properties. Of utmost importance for nanocomposites is nanoparticle dispersion, which is […]
*This seminar will be held in-person in Levine 512 with virtual attendance via Zoom. The seminar will NOT be recorded. ABSTRACT In this talk, I will discuss about building computer […]
Miniature implanted and injected technologies capable of manipulating and recording biological signals promise to improve the way we study biology and the way we diagnose and treat disease; however, to […]
Abstract coming soon. The lecture and Q&A will be followed by a light reception in Levine Lobby. The Herman P. Schwan Distinguished Lecture is in honor of one of the […]
