ESE & CIS Seminar: “Toward Power-Efficient Computing with Applied Inference”
Abstract: We require computers that extract value from exponential data growth even as exponential transistor scaling falters. With limited scaling, power and thermal density threaten performance. Architects must pursue power […]
ESE PhD Thesis Defense: “Affordances and Control of a Spine Morphology for Robotic Quadrupedal Locomotion”
Abstract: How does a robot’s body affect what it can do? This talk explores this question with respect to a morphology common to biology but rare in robotics: the presence […]

Title: “Data-Driven Modeling, Analysis and Design of Networked Dynamical Systems with Applications in Neuroscience” Abstract: In this thesis, we provide contributions to the modeling, analysis and design of networked dynamical […]
ESE Seminar: “Foundations of Deep Learning and Applications in Medicine”
Abstract: Recent advances in machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing, and robotics, offer a tremendous opportunity to transform medicine, from reactive and hospital centered to proactive and patient-centered. To […]
ESE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “IMU-Based State Estimation and Control of Quadrotors Leveraging Aerodynamic Effects”
Abstract: Quadrotors and multirotors in general are common in many inspection and surveillance applications. For these applications, visual-inertial odometry is a common way to localize the vehicles and observe the […]
ESE Seminar: “Management Strategies for Hyperscale Datacenters”
Abstract: Hyperscale datacenters provide critical infrastructure for the information economy, refining data to extract value. Sharing datacenters improves energy efficiency but whether strategic users participate depends on management policies. I address […]
ESE Faculty Hosted Talk: “Deep Learned Optical Multiplexing for Microscopy”
Abstract: Fourier ptychographic microscopy is a technique that achieves a high space-bandwidth product, i.e. high resolution and high field-of-view. In Fourier ptychographic microscopy, variable illumination patterns are used to collect […]
