PhD Proposal Review: Robust Observer Structures and Control Design for Linear and Nonlinear Dynamical Systems with Applications Anahita Moradmand Location: Zoom Link Abstract: This thesis focuses on special class of observers and controllers for different and seperable nonlinear systems. In the first step, a robust fault detection approach using observers for linear systems is proposed […]
PhD Dissertation Defense: Plasmonically Enhanced Infrared Sensing Microsystems Sungho Kang Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Infrared (IR) spectroscopic sensing has become a key technique in multidisciplinary environments such as military applications, industrial safety control, and smart homes, by providing an accurate and non-disruptive analysis of the target objects. Recently the demand for high performance and compact […]
PhD Dissertation Defense: Automated Bayesian Network Exploration for Nuisance-Robust Inference Andac Demir Location: Zoom Link Abstract: A fundamental challenge in the analysis of physiological signals is learning useful features that are robust to nuisance factors e.g., inter-subject \& inter-session variability, and achieve the highest nuisance-invariant classification performance. Towards resolving this problem, we introduce 3 frameworks: […]

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dorsa Parviz, Ph.D. Department of Chemical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Abstract: Population growth and climate change necessitate a paradigm shift from current chemical and materials production methods to more sustainable approaches with a negative carbon footprint. In view of this, I will introduce carbon fixing materials (CFM) as a new […]
