PRECISE Seminar: Investigate and Mitigate the Attacks Caused by Out-of-Band Signals

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

Abstract Sensing and actuation systems are entrusted with increasing intelligence to perceive the environment and react to it. Their reliability often relies on the trustworthiness of sensors. As process automation and robotics keep evolving, sensing methods such as pressure/temperature/motion sensing are extensively used in conventional systems and rapidly emerging applications. This talk aims to investigate […]

MEAM Seminar: “Manipulation of Micro/Nano Particles Using Acoustic Waves”

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Manipulation of particles in micro and nano scale has been invaluable in a variety of scenarios in applied physics, chemistry and biomedicine. Acoustic microfluidics has emerged as a powerful and novel platform for micro/nano manipulation in many applications recently due to its advantages in versatility, low cost, easy to integrate and manufacture, miniaturization, energy efficiency, […]

Penn Engineering 2021-22 Heilmeier Award Lecture: Ritesh Agarwal

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

"Utilizing Quantum Geometry and Topology for Enabling Integrated Chiral Photonics" Classical and quantum computing devices need to ferry vast amounts of data, and optical interconnects provide a promising approach allowing faster speeds and larger bandwidths. Critical interconnect components are light sources, waveguides and detectors. Currently, the information is encoded in intensity and frequency but other […]

ASSET Seminar: Learning with Small Data, Pratik Chaudhari (University of Pennsylvania)

Levine 307 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract: The relevant limit for machine learning is not N → infinity but instead N → 0. The human visual system is proof that it is possible to learn categories with extremely few samples. This talk will discuss steps towards building such systems and it is structured in three parts. The first part will discuss […]

Fall 2022 GRASP SFI: Ross Hatton, Oregon State University, “Snakes & Spiders, Robots & Geometry”

Room 307, Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and Virtual attendance via Zoom here… ABSTRACT Locomotion and perception are a common thread between robotics and biology. Understanding these phenomena at a mechanical level involves nonlinear dynamics and the coordination of many degrees of freedom. In this talk, I will discuss geometric approaches […]
