Location: 532 ISEC "Wake-up Radio-enabled Wireless Networking: Measurements and Evaluation of Data Collection Techniques in Static and Mobile Scenarios" Abstract: Multi-hop wireless networks such as Wireless Sensor Networks and in general, networks without the support of a fixed infrastructure, which enable most applications of the Internet of Things, are comprised of wirelessly communicating nodes that are […]

"Towards Robust and Secure Deep Learning Models and Beyond" Abstract: Modern science and technology witness the breakthroughs of deep learning during the past decades. Fueled by the rapid improvements of computational resources, learning algorithms, and massive amounts of data, deep neural networks (DNNs) have played a dominant role in many real world applications. Nonetheless, there […]

"Permutation Invariant Graph Learning" Abstract: Graphs are widely used in many areas such as biology, engineering, and social sciences to model sets of objects and their interactions and relationships. Tasks addressed by applying machine learning to graphs, known as graph learning, include node and graph classification, edge prediction, transfer learning, and generative modeling/distribution sampling, to […]

"Robust Sparsified Deep Learning" Abstract: This dissertation studies robustness issues around DNN deployments on resource constrained systems, under both environmental and adversarial input adaptation. We propose a means of compressing a Radio Frequency deep neural network architecture through weight pruning, and provide a systems-level analysis of the implementation of such a pruned architecture at resource-constrained […]

"Model-based decision making in life sciences" Abstract: Mathematical models are key tools in rational decision-making processes. A ``good" model is expected to reproduce experimental observations, which enables predictions outside the previous experimental settings. The accuracy of predictions depends on the assumptions used to model the system. The objective of this study is to explore possible […]
