  • Tang, M. (STAT) – Bayesian Modeling and Scalable Inference for Count Time Series in Infectious Disease Surveillance

    Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA
    Hybrid Event

    Real-time monitoring of infectious disease outbreaks calls for statistical models that recover interpretable quantities such as the time-varying reproduction number from noisy count data, track posterior uncertainty, and run on time scales compatible with daily updates. Existing methods address these aims through separate model classes. Discretized Hawkes processes, Poisson autoregressions, and distributed lag models each […]

  • Carrión, H. (CSE) – Deep Learning Algorithms for Medical Image Representation Learning and Understanding

    Virtual Event

    AI-assisted clinical decisions in medicine, and particularly in dermatology, demand fine-grained understanding across diverse skin tones, body sites, and disease types, yet expert-annotated datasets are scarce, demographically imbalanced, and almost devoid of rare presentations. This dissertation develops four deep learning systems for this low-label, low-coverage regime. We introduce HealNet, which learns wound healing stages from […]

  • Wang, Z. (CSE) – From Static Alignment to Adaptive Safety: Toward Reliable and Capable AI Systems

    Virtual Event

    Modern AI systems are rapidly moving beyond static text generation toward capable models and agents that reason, use tools, store memories, and update persistent state, yet safety methods still often assume a fixed model whose behavior can be controlled by output-level refusal. This leaves critical gaps in understanding why aligned models fail under adversarial pressure, […]
