CIS Seminar: “IDEs for Ideas”
Spring 2021 GRASP SFI: “Model-Based Deep RL for Robotics”
/
Abstract: Deep learning has shown promising results in robotics, but we are still far from having intelligent systems that can operate in the unstructured settings of the real world, where […]
ODEI Spotlight: The Masc We Live In – Cultural Implications of Masculinity
/
Join us as we host an open discussion on masculinity in different cultural contexts and the intersections of race, religion and other factors which influence how we view, interpret, and […]
ESE PhD Dissertation Defense: “Enhanced Nonlinearity Enabled via Doped ENZ Metastructures: Theory & Potential Applications”
/
Zoom - Email nahvi@seas.upenn.edu for link
Synthetic composite structures, known as metamaterials, have been increasingly applied in the past two decades in numerous applications for obtaining electromagnetic characteristics far beyond naturally occurring materials. In particular, epsilon-near-zero […]
BE Seminar: “Engineering Synthetic Biomaterials for Islet Transplantation” (María M. Coronel)
/
This event will be held virtually via Zoom (check email or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu). Two major challenges to the translation of cellular-based tissue-engineered therapies are the lack of adequate oxygen support […]
CIS Seminar: “Enabling Hyperscale Web Services”
/
Zoom - Email CIS for link
cherylh@cis.upenn.edu
Abstracts: Current hardware and software systems were conceived at a time when we had scarce compute and memory resources, limited quantity of data and users, and easy hardware performance scaling […]
GRASP On Robotics: “Trajectory Planning Using Dynamic and Power Models: a Heuristics-Based Approach”
/
https://upenn.zoom.us/j/96715197752
Abstract: Robot planning is needed for robots to perform purposeful missions in their environments. In realistic situations, planning does not simply involve getting to a desired destination without collisions, but […]
ESE Seminar: “(Re)building Human Dexterity: Inferring Musculoskeletal Dynamics for Next-Generation Assistive Devices & Diagnostics”
/
Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu
While there exist a number of mechanically sophisticated exoskeletons, prostheses, and assistive robots, with articulations similar to those of the intact human arm and hand, these devices remain limited in […]
ODEI Spotlight: A Conversation with Stacey Abrams
/
Please join us on February 19th at noon EST for a conversation with Stacey Abrams, moderated by Benjamin Todd Jealous and with remarks from President Amy Gutmann. The event is […]
PICS Colloquia: “Recent Advances in Modeling Subduction and Viscoelastic Flow in Geodynamic Computations”
/
Zoom - email kathom@seas.upenn.edu
Abstract: We will describe two separate but related methodologies that have been implemented in the open source, finite element code ASPECT, which computational geophysicists use to model a wide variety […]
