PhD Dissertation Defense: Explainable Efficient Models for Computer Vision Applications Wenqian Liu Location: Zoom Link Abstract: State of the art deep learning based models, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and generative models, achieve impressive results, but with their great performance comes great complexity and opacity, huge parametric spaces and little explainability. The criticality of […]
The GEM Annual Conference will take place from September 9-11 in Houston Texas. During this event, GEM University and Employer Representatives will exhibit to promote their graduate and undergraduate (REU) research programs.
PhD Dissertation Defense: Near-Zero Power Microelectromechanical Sensors for Large-Scale IoT Sensor Networks Vageeswar Rajaram Location: ISEC 432 Abstract: The Internet-of-things revolution has ushered the development of sensing technologies aimed towards establishing large-scale remote sensor networks to monitor the environment continuously and with high spatial resolution. However, with existing sensor technologies this goal has so far […]
