Abstract: Robust simulation and precise modeling of physical dynamics are essential for advancing perception, planning, and control in the development of generalist physical agents. In this talk, I will present […]
AI agents, both in the physical and digital worlds, should generalize from their training data to three increasingly difficult levels of deployment: training tasks and environments, training tasks and environments […]
This will be a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Motivated by the study of complex social behavior and by the bottom-up […]
Abstract: I will present the phase separation behavior of different sequences of a coarse-grained model for sequence defined macromolecules. They exhibit a surprisingly rich phase behavior, and not only conventional […]
Dense photonic integration requires miniaturization of materials, devices, circuits and systems, including passive components (e.g., engineered composite metamaterials, filters, etc.), active components (e.g., modulators and nonlinear wave mixers) and integrated […]
Zoom link: https://upenn.zoom.us/j/98220304722 Abstract: This talk considers the problem of resilient distributed multi-agent optimization for cyberphysical systems in the presence of malicious or non-cooperative agents. It is assumed that […]
Software engineers never start from a blank page, but rather from an extant and usually long-running project in need of modification (for repair, extension, update, etc.). One way to view […]
Neural compression, which pertains to compression schemes that are learned from data using neural networks, has emerged as a powerful approach for compressing real-world data. Neural compressors often outperform classical […]
The three-dimensional organization of chromatin within the cell nucleus plays a critical role in regulating gene expression, maintaining genome stability, and guiding cellular responses to environmental cues. Despite advances in […]
