ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Machine Learning on Large-Scale Graphs”

Room 452 C, 3401 Walnut 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Graph neural networks (GNNs) are successful at learning representations from most types of network data but suffer from limitations in large graphs, which do not have the Euclidean structure that time and image signals have in the limit. Yet, large graphs can often be identified as being similar to each other in the sense that […]

MEAM Seminar: “Mixing with Activity: Transport of Swimming Microorganisms in Complex Flows”

Towne 313 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

How will swimming microorganisms affect the mixing of a diffusive contaminant in chaotic flows? Answers to this question can lead to improved understanding of the spread of pollutants (e.g. algal blooms) in oceans and lakes, as well as potentially useful applications in biofuel and vaccine productions. In this talk, I present recent experiments on the […]

MEAM Seminar: “Sedimentation of Active Suspensions: Hindrance and Phase-separation”

Towne 313 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Sedimentation of active matter is found in many natural and industrial processes. It plays an important role on the distribution of plankton in oceans, which is key part of the carbon cycle (i.e. ocean's biological pump) that transports carbon from the ocean's surface to depth. In this seminar, I will present an investigation on the […]

MEAM Seminar: “Modboats: Building an Aquatic Modular Self-Reconfigurable Robotic System out of Underactuated Modules”

Towne 313 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Modular robots offer the promise of flexibility; we will be able to deploy teams of generalist modules and reconfigure them into various specialists to perform whatever task is necessary. Surface swimming aquatic modular robots in particular are not well studied, however, because the literature assumes that the modules need to be holonomic, which makes them […]
