The concept of computational materials design envisions the identification of new synthetically-accessible structures with desirable properties and the optimization of known systems using first-principles calculations. While significant steps towards realizing […]
Abstract Across the globe, physicists in academia and industry alike are competing to be the first to build a scalable universal quantum computer. Amongst the multitudes of quantum computing architectures, […]
Abstract: In recent years, machine learning has seen rapid advances with increasingly large scale and complex data modalities, including processing images, natural language and more. As a result, applications of […]
Abstract: Until now, the natural world has supplied us with antibiotics. Bacteria, however, are increasingly resistant to these drugs. The next generation of antibiotics will likely come not from nature […]
Recent advances in experimental measurements and numerical simulations has allowed us to discover new phenomena in multiphase turbulence (a flow regime characterized by chaotic and irregular motion in the presence […]
Abstract In this talk I will present my current and future work towards enabling safe real-world autonomy. My core focus is to enable efficient and safe decision-making in complex autonomous […]
Abstract Today’s computer systems and their owners fail to protect data. Exacerbating this are new threats stemming from the rise of cloud computing. The consequences are dire: sensitive information like […]
Abstract Millimeter-wave and terahertz bands are emerging as the most promising spectrum to meet the data-rate and latency demands of future wireless applications, including virtual reality and autonomous cars. Moreover, […]
Synthetic biology has transformed how cells can be reprogrammed, providing a means to reliably and predictably control cell behavior with the assembly of genetic parts into more complex gene circuits. […]
