Speaker: Ila Fiete Date & Time: Mon Dec 8th, 2:00pm NEW LOCATION: Jacobs Hall, Qualcomm Conference Center B, 1st Floor Abstract: Modular and hierarchical structures are ubiquitous in the brain, and the decomposition of tasks into invariant subfactors of variation are arguably the basis for robust, efficient learning, compositional generalization, and lack of forgetting. In this talk, I […]
Title: A geometric model for anatomic objects targeted for statistical analysis Speaker: Stephen Pizer, Kenan Professor of Computer Science, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Abstract: A novel representation called the evolutionary s-rep represents anatomic objects by encompassing an unusually rich collection of geometric features, image intensity based features, genetic features, etc. It can […]
Speaker: Xiuyuan Cheng Date & Time: Monday February 9th, 2:00pm Location: HDSI Multipurpose Room 123 Talk Title: Wasserstein-regularized learning via neural transport maps: from gradient flow to minimax Abstract: Wasserstein regularization has become a common tool in learning problems over distributions, while its practical computation remains challenging, especially in high dimensions. This talk presents a framework for Wasserstein-regularized learning […]

Speaker: Zhijian Liu Date & Time: Wednesday February 25th, 2:00pm Location: HDSI Multipurpose Room 123 Talk Title: Efficient AI in the Era of Large Models Abstract: Large foundation models now deliver remarkable capabilities in understanding, reasoning, and acting across digital and physical domains. Yet their computational cost has become the primary bottleneck to scaling and […]
Speaker: Emily Aiken Date & Time: Monday March 2nd, 2:00pm Location: HDSI Multipurpose Room 123 Talk Title: Empirically understanding the relative value of prediction in allocation Abstract: Public institutions increasingly use prediction to allocate scarce resources. From a design perspective, better predictions compete with other investments, such as expanding capacity or improving treatment quality. Here, the big question […]
Speaker: Jessilyn Dunn Date & Time: Monday March 2nd, 2:00pm Location: HDSI Multipurpose Room 123 Zoom Link: http://bit.ly/HDSI-Seminars Title: The Digital Physiome: Wearables for Disease Detection and Monitoring Abstract: Digital health is rapidly expanding due to surging healthcare costs, deteriorating health outcomes, and the growing prevalence and accessibility of mobile health and wearable technologies. Recent technological advancements make it possible to closely and […]
Speaker:Eddy Keming Chen Date & Time: Wednesday March 4nd, 2:00pm Location: HDSI Multipurpose Room 123 Title: AI Meets Philosophy of Science: Towards a Foundation of AI Abstract: Why do simple learning rules yield AI systems that generalize far beyond their training data? I argue that this reflects an abundance of learnable structure in nature, and that […]
Speaker: Ofir Lindenbaum Time/Date; Tuesday Sept 8th, 11:00am Location: HDSI Multipurpose Room 123 Zoom Link: http://bit.ly/HDSI-Seminars Title: Efficient Training, Fast Inference: Reducing Memory Requirements and Inference Time of Foundation Models. Abstract: Foundation models present a paradigm shift in machine learning, where it often appears that “scale is all you need” to achieve strong performance across tasks. However, […]
