Location: ISEC 138 Title: Learning Low-complexity Models from the Data – Geometry, Optimization, and Applications Abstract: Today we are collecting a massive amount of data in forms of images and videos, that we want to learn from the data themselves to extract useful information and to make predictions. The data are high-dimensional, but often possess […]
ISEC 138 Coded Computing for Next-Generation Information Processing Systems Abstract: Modern networks are designed to facilitate information processing in large-scale, highly distributed environments that connect humans with smart machines. Information collected in such networks is often privacy-sensitive, such as healthcare records, financial transactions, or geolocation data. Moreover, these networks often need to operate in unknown […]

Consequently, the immediate response of the wireless world is […]
Dr. Xin Zhang, Professor, Boston University Location: 138 ISEC Metamaterials have been intensively studied and applied to a broad range of practical applications ranging from wireless communications to magnetic resonance imaging. Photonic metamaterials consisting of subwavelength “meta-atoms” have received enormous interest due to their extraordinary and unprecedented optical properties. Specifically, the effective permittivity and permeability […]
Location: ISEC 138 Causality: From Learning to Generative Models Abstract: Causal inference is fundamental for multiple disciplines ranging from medical research to engineering, statistics, and economics. It is also central in machine learning and is now becoming a core component of artificial intelligence research. Although causal inference has been studied for a long time in […]
Location: ISEC 138 Multidimensional Signal Processing Circuits for Low-SWaP Multi-Beam Arrays Abstract: In this talk, array processing circuits that exploit the computing paradigm of approximate computing are explored. Low-size, -weight, and -power consumption (SWaP) algorithms and circuits are proposed to achieve thousands of fully-digital beams for emerging applications. The proposed low-SWaP multibeam digital beamformers use […]
