Seminar Title: Toward predictive simulation of human movement – for assistive devices and rehabilitation treatment Location: Zoom Link Abstract: I will present my research towards predictive simulations of human movement for assistive devices and rehabilitation treatment. First, I will talk about a neuromechanical control model based on simple reflexes. The model can generate diverse locomotion behaviors, […]
Seminar Title: Advancing Quantum Information Science With Hybrid Cavity Magnonics Location: Zoom Link Abstract: With recent demonstration of quantum computers and quantum communication, quantum technologies have started to change our world in an unprecedented way. To fully explore the power of quantum information science and technology, it is critical to further combine discrete quantum elements […]
Seminar Title: Coherent Information Processing with Onchip Hybrid Magnonics Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Hybrid dynamic systems have recently attracted great attention due to their applications in quantum computing, communications, and sensing. In particular, they provide a new paradigm for combining platforms and devices that can perform different tasks such as storing, processing, and transmitting coherent states. In […]
PhD Proposal Review: SpatioTemporal Prediction of Object Handover for Human Robot Collaboration Sadjad Asghari Esfeden Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Predicting human behaviour in video is one of the challenging problems in computer vision. In order for robots to be able to interact with humans they need to understand human intent. We study the problem of […]
Title: Provably Sound Perception for Reliable Autonomy David M. Rosen Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Machine perception -- the ability to construct accurate models of the world from raw sensor data -- is an essential capability for mobile robots, supporting such fundamental functions as planning, navigation, and control. However, the development of algorithms for robotic perception […]
NSF Predictive Intelligence for Pandemic Prevention (PIPP) Workshop – Pandemic Readiness for Emerging Pathogens (PREP) The goal is to foster scientific discussion and catalyze innovation and partnerships to significantly enhance our understanding of the challenges and potential solutions to rapid detection and assessment of emerging pathogens and infectious disease dynamics from the molecular to the ecological […]
PhD Proposal Review: Multi-area Distribution State Estimation Using a Virtual Reference Andre Langner Location: Teams Link Abstract: State Estimation (SE) is the backbone of modern Energy Management System due to its capability of processing real-time measurements and provide reliable information to system operators. Since its introduction to power systems in the ’70s, SE has been […]
PhD Dissertation Defense: Devices and Methods for Diagnosis from Exhaled Breath Shadi Emam Location: 325 DA Abstract: A novel electrochemical gas sensor was developed with a variety of applications. The sensor is composed of four layers: Silicon substrate, Chromium, Graphene-Prussian blue, and molecularly imprinting polymer (MIP). Molecular imprinting technology is a technique to polymerize around […]
