  • Johnstone, J. (AM) – The Effects of Asymmetry on Overshooting and Magnetic Pumping from Compressible Convection Zones

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

    We present a comprehensive numerical investigation examining how vertical asymmetry in compressible convection affects overshooting and the transport of large-scale magnetic fields from convective to stably stratified regions. Using three-dimensional direct numerical simulations, we systematically vary the superadiabaticity and stratification of a convective layer to control the vertical asymmetry of the flow and analyze its […]

  • Yang, J. (CSE) – Towards Controllable and Compositional Generative Vision

    Virtual Event

    Diffusion-based text-to-image models can generate impressive images, but they largely treat an image as a single, flat output, which makes precise editing of individual elements difficult. This proposal studies layered generative representations that align with professional editing workflows, enabling users to manipulate foreground objects while preserving the rest of the scene. A central focus is […]

    CM Seminar – “The ‘Social’ Side of Social Virtual Reality”

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

    Presented by: Bree McEwan Description: One of the potential use cases of virtual reality is to create spaces where humans can interact with each other or virtual agents across distances. However, despite many of the technological challenges of social VR being solved, social VR does not see poised for widespread adoption. Multi-user social VR needs to […]

  • Li, X. (CSE) – Compute-Efficient Scaling of Fully-Open Visual Encoders

    Virtual Event

    Vision encoders have demonstrated significant performance gains in visual generation and multimodal reasoning. These improvements are primarily attributed to the scaling of data, model capacity, and compute. However, this progress is becoming less accessible due to a lack of transparency in data curation and training recipes. In combination with the high compute requirements of foundation-scale […]

  • AM Seminar: Data Driven Modeling for Scientific Discovery and Digital Twins
