    Formula Slug Open House

    Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA

    We’re excited to announce our Formula Slug Open House at Baskin Engineering on Saturday, February 28th. Last season we placed 18th out of 120 teams representing UC Santa Cruz at the national FSAE competition, the result of a year spent designing, manufacturing, and testing our electric race car. The open house is an opportunity to see the work and decisions […]

  • Singh, A. (ECE) – Quantum Key Distribution Using Entangled Pairs with Random Grouping

    Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA
    Hybrid Event

    Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) provides information-theoretic security for cryptographic key establishment, but existing protocols exhibit limited noise tolerance, restricting their applicability in practical quantum channels with finite resources. This work introduces a QKD protocol based on entanglement swapping that significantly enhances error tolerance and key generation rates. The protocol encodes six-bit classical symbols into six-qubit […]

  • de Priester, J. (ECE) – Hybrid Reinforcement Learning

    Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA
    Hybrid Event

    Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a machine learning paradigm that trains a decision maker, or policy, by learning from interaction with an environment. The power of RL lies in its ability to learn complex strategies without explicit human instruction, which can lead to better solutions that human designers overlook in domains ranging from robotics to scientific […]

  • AM Seminar: Structure-Preserving Discretizations and their Applications

    Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA

    Presenter: Andy Wan, Assistant Professor, University of California, Merced   Description: Many models from science and engineering possess fundamental structures which are important to preserve in order for accurate and stable long-term predictions. For instance, preserving conserved quantities, such as energy, mass and momentum, are fundamental in many physical systems. Moreover, preserving dissipative quantities, such as entropy […]

  • AM Seminar: Sampling-Based Adaptive Rank Integrators for Multi-scale Kinetic Models.

    Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA

    Presenter: Professor Jingmei Qiu, University of Delaware   Description: In this talk, we introduce a sampling-based semi-Lagrangian adaptive rank (SLAR) method, which leverages a cross approximation strategy—also known as CUR or pseudo-skeleton decomposition—to efficiently represent low-rank structures in kinetic solutions. The method dynamically adapts the rank of the solution while ensuring numerical stability through singular value truncation […]

  • AM Seminar: Applications of the Flow-Density Relationship in Traffic Modeling

    Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA

    Presenter: Dr. Martha Shott, Department of Mathematics & Statistics, Sonoma State University   Description: Many mathematical models of traffic are macroscopic in nature, meaning that they model the relationship between average speed, density, and flow along a road or freeway segment. One of the fundamental relationships connecting these three quantities is the flow-density relationship, for which various […]
