SUMMARY:ESE Seminar: "Towards a Seamless Integration of Drones in Smart Cities: Communications and Security"
DESCRIPTION:The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)\, popularly known as drones\, will be an integral component of emerging smart city applications ranging from delivery of goods to flying taxis. However\, a seamless deployment of such drone-based applications requires addressing technical challenges across communications\, security\, autonomy\, and control. In this talk\, we focus on the wireless communications and security challenges of drone-based systems. From a communications perspective\, UAVs can assume two roles: aerial base stations that enhance the coverage and capacity of wireless networks and flying users that require wireless cellular connectivity for enabling applications such as real-time streaming and item delivery. With this in mind\, we introduce a foundational framework for designing three-dimensional (3D) wireless cellular networks that incorporate both drone base stations and cellular-connected drone users. For this novel 3D model\, we study a number of key problems including drone deployment\, network planning\, and cell association. Then\, we turn our attention to the cyber-physical security challenges brought forward by the deployment of drones. In this area\, we present a holistic framework\, with foundations in behavioral game theory\, for addressing fundamental cyber-physical security problems pertaining to drone-based systems. In particular\, we show how notions of risk\, bounded rationality\, and uncertainty can influence the security of drone-based systems and we develop new game-theoretic solutions that explicitly account for such factors in security analyses. We conclude by an overview on our ongoing research activities that cut across the areas of cyber-physical systems\, wireless networks\, game theory\, machine learning\, security\, and control.

SUMMARY:MEAM Seminar: "Stretching the Boundaries of Medical Robotics"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: My lab creates medical robots not only for minimally invasive surgery\, but also for targeted drug delivery and for tissue regeneration. This talk will describe three of our technologies. The first consists of tetherless robots that are powered\, controlled and imaged using an MRI scanner. These devices vary from patient-mounted needle-driving robots to capsules that can move inside fluid-filled body lumens. The second technology consists of a class of robot implants designed to apply traction forces over a period of weeks inside the body so as to induce the regeneration of soft tissues. Applications include lengthening the esophagus and bowel for the treatment of congenital defects and disease. The third is a type of continuum robot that is based on concentrically combining pre-curved superelastic tubes. We are using this technology to create multi-armed systems for intracranial endoscopic surgery. We are also developing endoscopically-guided catheters that can navigate autonomously inside the blood-filled beating heart.
