P.E.S.T.L.E. Orientation – January 20

MEAM Seminar: “Toward Physics-informed Machine Intelligence via Graph Discovery”
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Advances in machine learning and reduced-order modeling are rendering construction of digital twins for complex systems possible. We are using these tools to perform scientific discovery, design optimization, and data-informed […]

ESE Spring Seminar – “3D Functional Mesostructures: From Neural Interfaces to Environmental Monitors”
/
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Complex, three dimensional (3D) micro/nanostructures in biology provide sophisticated, essential functions in even the most basic forms of life. Compelling opportunities exist for analogous 3D structures in man-made devices, but […]

ASSET Seminar: What makes learning to control easy or hard?, Nikolai Matni (University of Pennsylvania)
/
Levine 307
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Presentation Abstract: Designing autonomous systems that are simultaneously high-performing, adaptive, and provably safe remains an open problem. In this talk, we will argue that in order to meet this goal, […]
