A recent report by the US Department of Energy defines the area of scientific machine learning as “a core component of artificial intelligence (AI) and a computational technology that can be trained, with scientific data, to augment or automate human skills”, which has “the potential to transform science and energy research”. We explore the potential... Read more →

This is a weekly session of the CIT Summer Series, with Dr. Rami Abielmona presenting Distilling AI: The Hitchhiker's Guide : In this talk, I will present real-world AI/ML Big Data solutions involving unique learning algorithms that allow one to process vast amounts of critical information combined with knowledge acquired from specific domains. These unique... Read more →

Microwave photonics (MWP) is a typical optical signal processing application for optical communications, antenna systems, and 5G/6G networks. At the same time, optical frequency combs (OFC) and programmable optical filters enable this system to be reconfigurable. There are several approaches to creating OFC lines, such as the micro-ring resonator, cascaded electro-optic modulator, and mode-locked laser... Read more →

This is a weekly session of the CIT Summer Series, with Nael Abu-Ghazaleh presenting Security challenges and opportunities at the Intersection of Architecture and ML/AI : Machine learning is an increasingly important computational workload as data-driven deep learning models are becoming increasingly important in a wide range of application spaces. Computer systems, from the architecture... Read more →

Abstract: Renewable energy systems are gaining increasing importance throughout the world. Proliferation of renewable energy sources in power systems has led to new opportunities and challenges in control, stability, protection, power quality and operation of power systems. Power electronics is an enabling technology for effective integration of renewables into the electrical grid. The aim of... Read more →

Title: Optical Wireless Communications for Low Power Internet of Things Context: Optical wireless communication (OWC) is touted as a complementary technology to mitigate the scarcity issue of the RF spectrum. OWC relies on massively deployed low power consumption light emitted diodes (LED) to realise secure wireless communications in the optical domain. However, to implement low... Read more →

This is a weekly session of the CIT Summer Series, with David A. Bader presenting Solving Global Grand Challenges with High Performance Data Analytics : Data science aims to solve grand global challenges such as: detecting and preventing disease in human populations; revealing community structure in large social networks; protecting our elections from cyber-threats, and...
