Algorithms are increasingly integrated into various societal applications, often directly interacting with people and communities. This highlights the importance of understanding the interplay between algorithmic decisions and economic incentives when […]
Deep learning's success stems from the ability of neural networks to automatically discover meaningful representations from raw data. In this talk, I will describe some recent insights into how optimization […]
To meet net-zero carbon emissions targets by mid-century, up to a -fold increase in wind power capacity is required. Acceleration to this rate requires urgent improvements to efficiency and reliability […]
Conventional approaches to scientific discovery often prioritize building larger sensors, gathering more data, and scaling up computational power. In this talk, I will present a complementary perspective: extracting insights hidden […]
Arrays of coupled superconducting qubits are a compelling platform for analog quantum simulations of solid-state matter and many-body physics. These devices natively emulate the Bose-Hubbard model while offering a high […]
As learning algorithms become increasingly capable of acting autonomously, it is important to better understand the behavior that results from their interactions. For example, a pervasive challenge in multi-agent learning […]
Understanding the dynamic behavior of complex biomolecules requires simplified models that not only make computations feasible but also reveal fundamental mechanisms. Coarse-graining (CG) achieves this by grouping atoms into beads, […]
Modern computing and communication technologies, such as supercomputers and the internet, are based on optically-linked networks of information processors operating at microwave frequencies. An analogous architecture has been proposed for […]
