SUMMARY:Kraw Lecture: Sensing the Unseen: How Drones and Ground Sensors Reveal the Hidden Air Quality Impact
DESCRIPTION:How can flying robots help us track the air we breathe and the pollutants we can’t see? In this talk\, Assistant Professor Javier González-Rocha  will share how his team uses drones to measure wind patterns and detect airborne pollutants in hard-to-reach places.. \nThese systems help us understand how toxic pollutants and climate emissions move through the atmosphere and affect human health and the environment. From wildfire smoke to methane leaks from dairy farms and oil fields\, these emissions are often poorly monitored—especially in rural or overburdened communities. \nLow-cost\, adaptable drone and ground sensor systems fill this gap. By combining real-time flight data\, environmental measurements\, and advanced modeling\, González-Rocha and his team generate targeted observations that inform air quality assessments and improve emissions tracking. \nThis work sits at the intersection of engineering\, environmental science\, and community collaboration—building tools that empower people and support climate resilience from the ground up. \nIn-Person Reception: 5:30 p.m.\nLecture: 6–7 p.m.\n\nRegister Now

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:CSE Colloquium - Constraining Chaos: Toward Faithful and Semantic Decoding in Language Models
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Loris D’Antoni\, UC San Diego \nAbstract:\nLanguage models excel at producing fluent text\, but in domains like code and math\, fluency isn’t enough — outputs must obey strict syntactic and semantic rules. A new wave of research is rethinking decoding itself: not as a process of sampling words\, but as a negotiation between probability\, structure\, and meaning. In this talk\, I’ll explore how grammar and semantics can be embedded into the decoding loop\, how we can sample from the true model conditional distribution under constraints\, and how programmable abstractions make it possible to enforce properties like type safety or program invariants. The result is a vision of decoding that is faithful to the model yet governed by rules\, pointing toward a future where LLMs generate not just plausible text\, but reliably correct output. \nBio:\nLoris D’Antoni is a Jacobs Faculty Scholar and Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of California San Diego. His research helps people build trustworthy software. His work has introduced new frameworks for verifying and synthesizing programs—ranging from resilient network configurations to robust decision-making systems—and\, more recently\, methods for aligning language models with user intent. \nHe is the recipient of an NSF CAREER Award and a Microsoft Research Faculty Fellowship\, and was selected as a Vilas Associate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He has also received Google\, Amazon\, and Meta Faculty Awards\, and the Morris and Dorothy Rubinoff Dissertation Award. His papers have earned several best paper awards and nominations\, including at TACAS\, ESOP\, ICDCN\, and SBES. \nLoris received his B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Torino\, and his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Pennsylvania. Before joining UC San Diego\, he was a faculty member at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. \nHosted by: Professor Nikos Tziavelis \nLocation: Engineering 2\, Room E2-180 \n*Light refreshments such as coffee\, pastries\, and fruit will be available. \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93445911992?pwd=YkJ2TQtF79h0PcNXbEcpZLbpK0coiY.1&jst=3

Examples of learning objective topics include developing students’ competencies in biological soil fertility and pest management\, tillage and cultivation\, crop care\, and analysis of diversified farming systems. The course frames these more technical production competencies within learning objectives related to agriculture literacies\, analyzing broader societal aspects of food sovereignty\, and the development of equitable and ecologically sustainable food systems. By broadening student perspectives and understandings of our diverse global community\, students will strengthen their ability to think critically about solutions. Studying and working in an unfamiliar place will support students gaining a clearer sense of who they are as learners\, so that they leave the program empowered to tackle the challenges – both academic and non-academic – that inevitably lie ahead. \nCheck out this student-produced video from a previous program!

SUMMARY:Behavioral\, Econometrics and Theory Seminar Series Presents: Roberto Corrao
DESCRIPTION:Economics Behavioral\, Econometrics\, & Theory Seminar\nDate: Tuesday\, January 20\, 2026\nTime: 1:40-3:00 p.m.\nLocation: E2-499\n\n \n\nSpeaker: Roberto Corrao\nTitle:  Assistant Professor of Economics \nAffiliation:  Stanford University\nHost: Gerelt Tserenjigmid\n \nSeminar title: Contractibility Design\n \nABSTRACT: \nWe introduce a model of incentive contracting in which the principal\, in addition to\nwriting contracts\, must engage in contractibility design: creating an evidence structure\nthat allows them to prove when the agent has breached the contract. Designing an\nevidence structure entails both (i) front-end costs borne ex ante\, such as those of\ndrafting contracts\, and (ii) back-end costs borne ex post\, such as those of generating\nevidence. We find that\, under even small front-end costs\, optimal contracts are coarse\,\nspecifying finitely many contingencies out of a continuum of possibilities. In contrast\,\nunder even large back-end costs\, optimal contracts are complete. Applied to the design\nof procurement contracts\, our results rationalize: (i) the discreteness of contracts\, (ii)\nthe presence of similarly vague contracts in low-stakes and high-stakes settings\, and\n(iii) the discontinuous adjustment of contracts to changes in the economic environment.

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.
