Devarajan, K. (ECE) – Towards Multimodal Detection of Neuronal Signaling using Graphene Heterostructures
Understanding neuronal function requires measurements that capture both the rapid dynamics and spatial organization of neural activity. Conventional neural interfaces often prioritize either high temporal resolution through electrophysiological recording or […]
-
Chen, Y. (STAT) – Flexible Bayesian Models for High-Dimensional and Longitudinal Discrete Data in Microbiome Studies
Virtual EventMultivariate dependent discrete data routinely arise in microbiome studies. Analyzing these data presents interesting statistical challenges, such as high dimensionality, excess zeros, large heterogeneity across samples, and temporal dependence in […]
-
Abdulaziz, A. (ECE) – Learning-Based Channel Estimation for Next-Generation Wireless Communications
Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CAHybrid EventCoherent wireless reception depends on accurate channel state information (CSI), yet acquiring CSI through pilot transmission consumes time–frequency resources that could otherwise carry data. This tradeoff becomes more pronounced in […]

Valderrama, S. (CSE) – Closing Data Gaps for Cybersecurity AI Training and Evaluation
Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CAHybrid EventArtificial intelligence and machine learning models depend on large and diverse datasets to learn patterns across different situations and generalize to cases they have not seen before. In cybersecurity, suitable data is difficult to find for two main reasons: first, sensitive information limits what organizations can share; second, public datasets often lack the coverage or […]

Mirzanezhad, H. (EE) – Van der Waals materials-based memory devices for neuromorphic computing
Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CAThe separation of memory and processing in conventional computer architectures leads to significant energy consumption associated with data transfer, known as the von Neumann bottleneck. Two-dimensional (2D) materials provide a promising platform for developing nanoscale memory devices for in-memory and neuromorphic computing because of their atomic-scale thickness, lack of dangling bonds, and ability to form […]
