PhD Dissertation Defense: Domain Design Space Exploration: Designing a Unified Platform for a Domain of Streaming Applications Jinghan Zhang Location: ISEC 362 or Zoom Link Abstract: Many demanding streaming applications share functional and structural similarities with other applications in their respective domain, e.g., video analytics, software-defined radio, and radar. This opens the opportunity for specialization […]
Distinguished Speaker Series in Robotics Gregory S. Chirikjian: Robot Imagination: Affordance-Based Reasoning about Unknown Objects Location: ISEC Auditorium or Zoom Link Abstract: Today’s robots are very brittle in their intelligence. This follows from a legacy of industrial robotics where robots pick and place known parts repetitively. For humanoid robots to function as servants in the […]
PhD Proposal Review: Engineering Functional Nanomesh for Advanced Neuroelectronics Jaehyeon Ryu Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Transparent electronics have emerged as promising platforms for neural interfacing by enabling simultaneous electrophysiological recording and optical measurements. Also, there are high demands for stretchable devices due to their low modulus and compatible interface with irregular and soft neural tissue. […]
