MEAM Thesis Defense: “Inkjet Printed Neuromorphic Inference Circuits with Memristor-Based Neuron Network”

Zoom - Email MEAM for Link peterlit@seas.upenn.edu

The deployment of machine learning inference algorithms on Internet of Things (IoT) devices remains challenging. Despite the low fabrication cost, flexibility, and low power consumption of the printed electronics for IoT applications, there are not many demonstrations of printed electronics solving neural network tasks, mainly due to the poor electrical performance, low device yield, and […]

ESE Seminar: “Demystifying the Efficiency of Reinforcement Learning: Two Recent Stories”

https://upenn.zoom.us/j/96715197752

Reinforcement learning (RL), which is frequently modeled as sequential learning and decision making in the face of uncertainty, is garnering growing interest in recent years due to its remarkable success in practice. In contemporary RL applications, it is increasingly more common to encounter environments with prohibitively large state and action space, thus imposing stringent requirements on the […]
