    • Spring 2022 GRASP SFI: Shuran Song, Columbia University, “The Reasonable Effectiveness of Dynamic Manipulation for Deformable Objects”

    /
    Levine 512

    *This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Levine 512 and Virtual attendance via Zoom From unfurling a blanket to swinging a rope; high-velocity dynamic actions play a crucial role in how people interact with deformable objects. In this talk, I will discuss how we can get robots to learn to dynamically manipulate deformable objects, where we embrace high-velocity dynamics rather […]

    ESE Spring Seminar – “Surpassing Fundamental Limits through Time Varying Electromagnetics”

    /
    Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Surpassing the fundamental limits that govern all electromagnetic structures, such as reciprocity and the delay-bandwidth-size limit, will have a transformative impact on all applications based on electromagnetic circuits and systems. For instance, violating principles of reciprocity enables non-reciprocal components such as isolators and circulators, which find application in full-duplex wireless radios, radar, bio-medical imaging, and […]

    GRASP on Robotics: Gregory Hager, Johns Hopkins University, “Observing, Learning and Executing Fine-Grained Manipulation Activities”

    /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    This seminar will be held in person in Wu and Chen Auditorium as well as virtually via Zoom. In the domain of image and video analysis, much of the deep learning revolution has been focused on narrow, high-level classification tasks that are defined through carefully curated, retrospective data sets. However, most real-world applications – particularly those […]

    PICS Colloquium: “Computational Image Analysis For Individualized Surgical Treatment Planning of Bicuspid Aortic Valves”

    /
    PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Abstract: The bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a congenital heart defect in which the aortic valve has two cusps rather than three. Moderate to severe aortic regurgitation is the most common complication in young adult BAV patients and requires major, and often repeated, surgical intervention. BAV repair is an evolving surgical treatment for aortic regurgitation […]

    ESE Seminar – “Computing Using Time”

    /
    Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    The development of computing systems able to address our ever-increasing needs, especially as we reach the end of CMOS transistor scaling, requires truly novel methods of computing. My research draws inspiration from biology, rethinks the digital/analog boundary, and challenges conventional wisdom, which typically guides how we perform computation, by reimagining the role of time. In […]

    CIS Seminar: “Fast and Effective Analytics for Big Multi-Dimensional Data”

    /
    Zoom - Email CIS for link cherylh@cis.upenn.edu

    Today, automated processes, Internet‑of‑Things deployments, and Web and mobile applications generate an overwhelming amount of high‑dimensional data. Meanwhile, computational resources remain limited, and advances in machine learning (ML) create a pressing need to support increasingly expensive and complex analytical tasks. Unfortunately, traditional data management techniques offer limited support for high‑dimensional data, ML tasks, and adaptation […]

    MEAM Seminar: “Agile Maneuver with Under-Actuated Millirobots”

    /
    Zoom - Email MEAM for Link peterlit@seas.upenn.edu

    Decimeter-scale robots can use a wide range of techniques to maneuver in challenging environments in spite of lacking the actuated degrees of freedom typically seen in larger robots. Agile maneuver for these small robots greatly benefits from a high power-to-weight ratio and mechanical design which can exploit environment interactions, in addition to explicit control strategies. […]

    ESE Spring Seminar – “Advancing Precision Medicine and Precision Health with CMOS-enabled Continuous Monitoring of Molecules, Cells, and Beyond”

    /
    Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    “Continuous” monitoring of specific biomarkers in real-time offers longitudinal information that can enable not only rapid medical decision-making but also early disease detection. As opposed to the current end-point diagnostics approaches, such a continuous-monitoring capability introduces a new dimension in achieving precision medicine and precision health. In this talk, I will present my research contributions […]
