SUMMARY:Harrison\, D. (CS) - Multi-Level Control in Neural Dialogue Generation: Style\, Semantics\, and Selection through Over-Generation and Ranking
DESCRIPTION:End-to-end neural generation models have largely displaced the modular architectures that once gave dialogue system designers explicit control over what is said and how it is said. While these models produce fluent text\, they collapse content planning\, sentence planning\, and surface realization into a single undifferentiated decoding step\, sacrificing the controllable structure that earlier systems provided. This dissertation investigates how that structure can be recovered through the over-generate-and-rank (OGR) paradigm: generating multiple candidate outputs and selecting among them using learned or prompt-based ranking functions that jointly optimize semantic fidelity\, stylistic appropriateness\, and conversational coherence. We instantiate OGR at three levels of natural language generation for dialogue: utterance-level stylistic control\, cross-domain semantic evaluation\, and dialogue-level response selection. \nFirst\, we show that explicit conditioning mechanisms\, specifically decoder-level side constraints for personality variation and discourse contrast\, re-introduce stylistic control into neural sequence-to-sequence models without compromising semantic accuracy. Second\, we demonstrate that prompt-based learning with structured linguistic profiles achieves near-perfect personality accuracy and effectively zero slot error rate when combined with ranking\, establishing that LLM prompting with explicit pragmatic specifications can match or exceed fine-tuning for personality-conditioned generation. Third\, we develop a cross-domain semantic error rate evaluation framework that frames slot error computation as an extraction task\, using a LoRA-adapted language model to extract meaning representations from generated text and a trained ranker to select among candidate extractions\, achieving reliable evaluation across 23 topic domains without domain-specific rules. Fourth\, we build and evaluate a speaker-aware transformer response ranker for Athena\, our Alexa Prize socialbot\, demonstrating that learned ranking over heterogeneous generator pools produces significantly longer conversations and higher user ratings than heuristic rule-based selection in a live A/B study with over 6\,000 conversations. \nA unifying finding emerges across all four contributions: the pragmatic features that control personality style in generation—acknowledgements\, engagement questions\, hedges\, exclamations—are the same features that distinguish high-quality from mediocre responses in open-domain dialogue. This parallel reveals that stylistic control and response ranking are complementary mechanisms for achieving the same goal: making dialogue systems sound more natural and engaging. Together\, these results support the dissertation’s central hypothesis that over-generate-and-rank provides a general\, extensible mechanism for controllable neural language generation\, restoring explicit decision points where competing communicative objectives can be weighed. The ranking function serves a role analogous to the sentence planner in classical NLG architectures\, but operates on the outputs of modern neural and LLM-based generators. \n  \nEvent Host: Davan Harrison\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Computer Science \nAdvisor: Marilyn Walker \n

SUMMARY:ECE 290 Seminar: Dynamical Signatures: Harnessing the Hidden Language of In-Space Electric Propulsion
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Christine Greve\, Research Engineer\,  Edwards AFB \nDescription: Low-thrust space electric propulsion systems offer long propulsion system lifetimes for satellite maintenance maneuvers. These thrusters operate by generating and accelerating plasmas\, making the thrusters throttleable\, propellant-efficient\, and scalable from low-to-high power operations. This talk will focus on efforts to leverage the underlying time-dependent dynamics of plasma to investigate and influence thruster research and development. Prior years of study have developed techniques to uniquely represent the dynamics of such systems that have since been used to open a new way to test and operate plasma systems. Additional work has investigated the correlations between time-dependent measurements of these dynamics to develop digital twins\, automate test processes with machine learning\, inform design of experiments\, and develop on-orbit system diagnostics. The talk will conclude with a look to the future as these tools are further applied both within the lab and potentially transitioned to on-orbit applications. \nBio: Dr. Christine Greve is a research engineer for the Air Force Research Laboratory at Edwards AFB. She received her Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from Texas A&M University under an NDSEG fellowship for her work in data-driven modeling of plasma-based systems. She now serves as the Electric Propulsion group lead with interests in high-power electric propulsion\, machine learning\, data-driven modeling\, and novel plasma diagnostic techniques. \nHosted by: Professor Soumya Bose\, ECE Department \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/97975378707?pwd=ljcgaCfhMmhZ88Vt5dqQUBVQRjehOx.1

SUMMARY:Robbins\, A. (ECE) - How to train your organoid: goal-directed learning in biological neural networks
DESCRIPTION:Artificial neural networks can now learn to play games\, control robots\, generate language\, and solve complicated reasoning tasks\, yet we still lack a clear understanding of how to directly guide learning in biological neural networks. We show that brain organoids can learn to solve a fundamental control task\, balancing an inverted pendulum\, through closed-loop electrophysiology. Cortical organoids interfaced with high-density microelectrode arrays received sensory input about the pole’s angle and produced motor output through their neural activity. Training signals selected by a reinforcement learning algorithm significantly outperformed random stimulation and no-stimulation controls. Blocking glutamatergic transmission abolished the learning and washout restored it\, confirming the adaptation depends on synaptic plasticity. To support this work and future experiments\, we developed BrainDance\, an open-source framework for running reproducible biological learning experiments\, and contributed to RT-Sort\, a real-time spike sorting algorithm. This dissertation presents the tools\, experiments\, and findings from pursuing goal-directed learning in biological neural networks. BrainDance makes these experiments easy-to-create\, reproducible and shareable\, letting any lab with compatible hardware start training their own organoids. \nEvent Host: Ash Robbins\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Electrical and Computer Engineering  \nAdvisor: Mircea Teodorescu \nZoom- https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/95839863615?pwd=EmqTWPN9RRBYZRW7rcpoaT9kqacfRP.1 \nPasscode- 069118

SUMMARY:Statistics Seminar: Evaluating Predictive Algorithms Under Missing Data
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Amanda Coston\, Assistant Professor\, University of California Berkeley \nDescription: Performance evaluation plays a central role in decisions about whether and how predictive algorithms should be deployed in high-stakes settings. Yet\, in many real-world domains\, evaluation is fundamentally difficult: the data available for assessment are often biased\, incomplete\, or noisy\, and the act of deploying a model can itself alter which outcomes are observed. As a result\, standard evaluation practices may substantially misrepresent both overall model performance and disparities across groups. In this talk\, we examine several common threats to valid evaluation—including measurement error\, selection bias\, and distribution shift—and present principled evaluation methods that enable valid performance assessment under these challenges when appropriate conditions are met. \nBio: From UC Berkeley website: Amanda Coston is an assistant professor of statistics at UC Berkeley. Her research addresses real-world data problems that challenge the validity\, reliability\, and equity of algorithmic decision support systems and data-driven policy-making. Her work draws on techniques from causal inference\, machine learning\, and nonparametric statistics. She earned her PhD in machine learning and public policy at Carnegie Mellon University and subsequently completed a postdoc at Microsoft Research on the Machine Learning and Statistics Team. She also holds a Bachelor of Science in Engineering from Princeton in computer science and a certificate in the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs. \nHosted by: Statistics Department

SUMMARY:Hendawy\, M. (CM) - Autonoming Child Online Safety in the Age of AI: From Control to Digital Co-Agency Across Cultures
DESCRIPTION:Children’s lives are now inextricably linked with AI-driven digital systems that shape learning\, social interaction\, and development. This has elevated child online safety to a central concern for families\, policymakers\, and educators. This makes Child online safety a wicked socio-technical problem\, emerging from the complex interplay of social norms\, platform incentives\, cultural expectations\, and rapidly evolving technologies. Dominant control-based paradigms—monitoring\, blocking\, and surveillance—undermine children’s developmental capacity\, erode family trust\, and foreclose the iterative cycles of self regulated learning necessary for digital resilience. This proposal advances digital co-agency as a new paradigm for child online safety. It reframes safety from an outcome of unilateral control to a shared\, relational practice distributed across children\, caregivers\, technologies\, and governance structures. To be effective\, digital co-agency must be grounded in a clear normative standard. I define this standard as ethical safety: protection is legitimate only when it is rights-respecting and developmentally supportive. Within this boundary\, the dissertation proposes autonoming as a design stance for AI-mediated safety systems. Autonoming systems act as developmental mentors that support children’s judgment over time through explanation\, negotiation\, and graduated support that can fade as competence grows. Autonoming is grounded in Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) as the developmental mechanism for durable safety capacity. SRL models learning as cyclical forethought (planning)\, performance (in-the-moment regulation)\, and reflection (evaluating outcomes). The dissertation adopts a socio-technical interpretivist stance and a Design Science Research orientation to produce actionable artifacts that are theoretically grounded and evaluable.. Its core methodological contribution is localization-first comparative design across Cairo and Berlin. This comparative structure helps distinguish between: localized variables (culturally specific norms regarding authority\, privacy\, risk\, norms\, expectations\, and legitimacy conditions that must be adapted to) from ethical invariants (accountability\, contestability\, proportionality that should hold across contexts). \nEvent Host: Mennatullah Hendawy\, Ph.D. Student\, Computational Media  \nAdvisor: Magy Seif El-Nasr \nZoom- https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93831600031?pwd=hsnX574bcXVQRZa16sKbX0u7OuaMlu.1 \nPasscode-459844

SUMMARY:"The Cigarette Surfboard" screening with filmmaker Ben Judkins (Kresge '17)
DESCRIPTION:Join Banana Slug alumni filmmaker Ben Judkins (Kresge ’17\, film and digital media) and “ciggy board” creator Taylor Lane for a screening of their award-winning documentary\, The Cigarette Surfboard (presented by the California Coastal Commission‘s Whale Tail Grant). \n5:00-6:00 PM | alumni meet & greet with light refreshments\n6:00-7:35 PM | film screening\n7:35-8:30 PM | filmmaker discussion\n8:30-9:00 PM | mingle \nREGISTER\nABOUT THE FILM\nAfter a young designer realizes that a surfboard – which he crafted from thousands of littered cigarette butts picked up off California beaches – could captivate the eyes of millions across the globe\, he decides to use it as the impetus to do something more. The Cigarette Surfboards become a platform to spark ocean stewardship and the symbol of a campaign to hold Big Tobacco accountable for their toxic\, plastic waste. Surfing is the medium\, but the message is universal. \nSmall decisions and actions\, like littering a cigarette butt\, cumulatively can have a large impact\, for better or for worse. This immersive documentary provides viewers an up close experience of the ocean through surfers’ eyes\, to amplify a message of urgency and possibility regarding the ocean’s wellbeing. As our ocean faces mounting threats\, and surfing continues to grow\, we as surfers have a responsibility to protect it. \nABOUT THE FILMMAKER\nRaised in Northern California\, at age eight\, Ben Judkins found an old camcorder and discovered the medium to explore and create. After years of videotaping friends skateboarding and surfing\, Ben landed at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\, majoring in Film & Digital Media. His senior film “Marshall” earned the Dean’s Award\, and also won “Best Locally-Produced Work” at the 2017 Santa Cruz Film Festival. Ben is an avid surfer who believes in the power of visual storytelling to move people to action. The Cigarette Surfboard documentary is an opportunity to inspire a generation of surfers to be stewards of the sea.

SUMMARY:The Trial of Spock—An Opera Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The creators of The Trial of Spock—An Opera In Three Acts present concert performances of five scenes from an opera-in-progress at the UC Santa Cruz Music Center Recital Hall.  \nCaptain Christopher Pike is gravely injured. Lieutenant Spock is behaving strangely. Charged with protecting Pike in his state of extreme need\,Vulcan Commodore T’or suspects that Lieutenant Spock—once Captain Pike’s science officer—is up to no good. Spock’s Captain\, James T. Kirk\, doesn’t see the trouble until far too late\, and soon Spock holds all of them prisoner aboard a ship destined for the “forbidden planet” Talos IV. He refuses to say a word about their fate—not until his superiors agree to give him his trial. Under oath\, and with strange evidence\, Spock tells the story of Captain Pike’s first visit to Talos IV\, where illusion and artificial experiences plunge Pike and fellow captive Vina into uncharted dimensions of their memories\, and their concepts of self. \nJoin sopranos Nicole Koh\, Sheila Willey\, and Emily Sinclair; tenors Alex Boyer and Nicolas Vasquez-Gerst\, baritones Joseph Calzada and Michael Kuo\, and the Del Sol Quartet\, as they distort the myth of Orpheus\, in order to re-think our presumed relationships to freedom and reality\, and its augmentations. \nMusic by Ben Leeds Carson; libretto by Perre DiCarlo & Ben Leeds Carson and Lincoln & Lee Taiz; with contributions from John de Lancie\, based on teleplays by Gene Roddenberry. \n—\nADMISSION\n– FREE and open to the public\n– Tickets required and available online through Eventbrite\n– Follow the Music Dept on Eventbrite for notices and updates.\n– Doors are scheduled to open 30 minutes prior to event start time.\n– Ticket holders not seated at least 5 minutes before the advertised start time may forfeit their ticket/seat and no refund will be issued.\n—\nPARKING\n– Parking by permit\, ParkMobile\, or $11 cash/credit via the on-site parking attendant\n– Arts Lot #126 is the closest parking lot to the event\n– Visitors with DMV placards or plates may park for free in DMV spaces\, Medical spaces\, or ParkMobile spaces without additional payment\, or in timed zones for longer than the posted time.\n– UCSC affiliates must purchase their permits before arriving at the event in order to receive their discounted UCSC rate.

SUMMARY:Jewels in the garden: A Darwinian natural history of humming birds with UCSC Professor Emeritus Bruce Lyon
DESCRIPTION:This presentation promises to be a super fun exploration of hummingbird natural history\, evolution\, and social behavior\, full of fascinating scientific information and colorful images of local and exotic hummingbirds from here and abroad. Though now officially a Professor Emeritus of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at UC Santa Cruz\, we are lucky that Dr. Bruce Lyon has little inclination to stop studying bird ecology and evolution in ‘retirement’! During his rich career teaching and conducting research\, Bruce’s work continues to include the Lyon Lab’s 18+ year-long project studying golden-crowned sparrows at the Arboretum. \nBruce will give his entertaining presentation and slideshow in the Arboretum’s Hort 2 Meeting Hall and then take interested folks outside to one of the Arboretum’s “hummingbird hotspots” for an informal (humming)-birdwatching session and Q&A.

SUMMARY:Ecology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World
DESCRIPTION:Norris Center Art + Science Graduate Fellowship Exhibition \nEcology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World brings together the work of ten graduate students supported by the Kenneth S. Norris Center for Natural History Art + Science Fellowship\, a program dedicated to creative research connecting art with the natural world. Across media – including sound\, moving image\, music\, performance\, installation\, comics\, social practice\, photography\, and storytelling – the artists in Ecology of Presence emphasize relationality and careful attention to place as essential to building relationships with environs. As accelerating environmental change and technological dependency threaten ways of belonging\, the works in this exhibition maintain a steadfast commitment to interdisciplinary approaches that propose kinship with the natural world. By coming together\, Art + Science Fellows artworks and social practices suggest ways of imagining human life in relation to the more-than-human world.

SUMMARY:Ecology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World
DESCRIPTION:Norris Center Art + Science Graduate Fellowship Exhibition \nEcology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World brings together the work of ten graduate students supported by the Kenneth S. Norris Center for Natural History Art + Science Fellowship\, a program dedicated to creative research connecting art with the natural world. Across media – including sound\, moving image\, music\, performance\, installation\, comics\, social practice\, photography\, and storytelling – the artists in Ecology of Presence emphasize relationality and careful attention to place as essential to building relationships with environs. As accelerating environmental change and technological dependency threaten ways of belonging\, the works in this exhibition maintain a steadfast commitment to interdisciplinary approaches that propose kinship with the natural world. By coming together\, Art + Science Fellows artworks and social practices suggest ways of imagining human life in relation to the more-than-human world.

SUMMARY:First Saturday Tour at the Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:First Saturday Tours are a wonderful way to introduce yourself to the Arboretum or to deepen your knowledge of the Arboretum’s plant collections. Each tour is a little different depending on the time of year\, the interests of the tour guide\, and the people who join in. For example\, you might learn about the birds and mammals that make this land their home or about the amazing physical adaptations that plants have evolved to better deal with our extreme weather and climate conditions. Tours are free with paid admission.

SUMMARY:Science in the Neighborhood: Transforming Pacific salmon recovery\, from genes to ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:Science In the Neighborhood\nA public lecture series hosted quarterly by the UC Santa Cruz Science Division \nTransforming Pacific salmon recovery\, from genes to ecosystems\nPresentation by Eric Palkovacs\, Professor\, UC Santa Cruz\nQ&A with Bryan Gaensler\, Dean of Science\, UC Santa Cruz \nRegister here. \nAn endangered Central California Coast coho salmon from the Scott Creek recovery program that UCSC operates in collaboration with NOAA. Photo credit: Joel Sartore / National Geographic Photo Ark.\nFor millennia\, Pacific salmon have been integral to the health of coastal ecosystems and human communities from California to Alaska. Salmon are ecological and cultural keystone species\, connecting marine and freshwater food webs and supporting thriving fisheries. Yet\, wild salmon have declined precipitously due to a combination of factors including dams\, harvest\, hatcheries\, water use—and now\, climate change. \nProfessor Palkovacs\, who leads UC Santa Cruz’s Institute of Marine Sciences and Fisheries Collaborative Program\, will describe transformative approaches to recover wild salmon populations by connecting novel insights from the level of genes to ecosystems. Learn how this integrative research program can provide insights to transform the future for wild Pacific salmon and the ecosystems and fisheries they support. \nThe event is in-person only. Register here. \nMarch 6\, 2026 | 6:00–7:30 p.m.\nCoastal Biology Building.
