March 1, 2022 -CIS Seminar: “Neural Representation and Rendering of 3D Real-world Scenes”
MEAM Seminar: “Unknown Unknowns in Designing Porous Intercalation Electrodes for Batteries”
Many batteries, including the state-of-the-art Lithium-ion technology, use porous intercalation electrodes. In such electrodes, energy is stored in the form of ions intercalating in particles. The conventional approach to designing such electrodes relies on using the porous electrode theory to upscale particle-scale behavior to the electrode-scale response. In this talk, I will discuss unusual material […]
ESE Spring Colloquium – “Bridging Safety and Learning in Human-Robot Interaction”
From autonomous cars in cities to mobile manipulators at home, robots must interact with people. What makes this hard is that human behavior—especially when interacting with other agents—is vastly complex, varying between individuals, environments, and over time. Thus, robots rely on data and machine learning throughout the design process and during deployment to build and […]

March 2, 2022CIS Seminar: “Theoretical Foundations of Pre-trained Models”
Spring 2022 GRASP SFI: Ted Xiao, Robotics at Google, “A Panorama of End-to-end Robot Learning”
In recent years, a variety of approaches to robotic control have gained popularity as robots play an increasingly larger role in our everyday lives. In this talk I will give an introduction to modern-day robot learning, covering engineering and research challenges. After establishing the foundations of popular methods, I will present why I believe that end-to-end […]
CBE Seminar: “Spying on Sugar Transporters: Kinetic Studies of Biomolecular Sensors”
Abstract The allocation of sugars from photosynthetic leaves to storage tissues in seeds, fruits, and tubers is an essential determinant of crop yields. In plants, transporters play critical roles in allocating carbon to different organs. Transgenic modifications of plant membrane transporters have been shown to enhance crop yield and increase plants' resistance to biotic and […]

March 3, 2022 -CIS Seminar:”Privacy and Scalability for Decentralized Cryptographic Systems”
ESE Spring Seminar – “Learning to Interact With the World: When Generality Meets Precision”
Robotics stands as one of the most impactful and promising endeavors of our times. Learning to interact with the world is fundamental for solving some of our most pressing societal challenges: from taking care of our aging population and aiding with labor-intensive jobs to assisting in climate-related disasters and rescue emergencies. In this talk, I […]

March 4, 2022 -PICS Colloquium: “Mechanics of Polymeric Gels”
GRASP on Robotics: Shai Revzen, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, “Multi-legged slipping is simpler than you think”
Multi-contact sliding mechanics in general and multilegged slipping in particular have long been considered difficult to model. As a consequence roboticists have avoided building multilegged systems and designing motion plans which include intentional slipping. I present a series of experiments and mathematical advances that demonstrate how these problems become easier with more contacts. These advances […]
PICS Colloquium: “Mechanics of Polymeric Gels”
This talk discusses recent and ongoing research on the multiphysics response of polymeric gels. A polymeric gel is a polymeric material swollen by a fluid, and the intake or out-flow causes large deformations. Also, many gels respond to environmental stimuli such as temperature, electric and magnetic fields, pH, and more. The responsiveness of polymeric gels […]
