SUMMARY:ECE PhD Proposal Review: Bin Sun
DESCRIPTION:PhD Proposal Review: Lightweight Neural Networks via Factorization \nBin Sun \nLocation: Zoom Link \nAbstract: Deep learning has become popular in recent years primarily due to powerful computing devices such as GPUs. However\, many applications such as face alignment\, image classification\, and gesture recognition need to be deployed to multimedia devices\, smartphones\, or embedded systems with limited resources. Thus\, there is an urgent need for high-performance but memory-efficient deep learning models. For this\, we design several lightweight deep learning models for different tasks with factorization strategies. \nSpecifically\, we constructed a lightweight face alignment model by proposing a factorization-based deep convolution module named Depthwise Separable Block (DSB) and a light but practical module based on the spatial configuration of the faces. Experiments on four popular datasets verify that Block Mobilenet has better overall performance with less than 1MB storage size. Besides the face analysis application\, we also explored a general\, lightweight deep learning module for image classification with low-rank pointwise residual (LRPR) convolution\, called LRPRNet. Essentially\, LRPR aims at using a low-rank approximation to factorize the pointwise convolution while keeping depthwise convolutions as the residual module to rectify the LRPR module. Moreover\, our LRPR is quite general and can be directly applied to many existing network architectures.\nDue to the success of the factorization strategy on image-based data\, we extended factorization on time sequence data for Sign Language Recognition (SLR). We achieved the first rank in the challenge of SLR with the help of our proposed novel Separable Spatial-Temporal Convolution Network (SSTCN)\, which divides a 3D convolution on joint features into several stages \, which help the SSTCN achieve higher accuracy with fewer parameters.

SUMMARY:BioE Seminar: The Case for Diversity and Inclusion\, From An Engineer’s Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Department of Bioengineering  \nSeminar Series  \nKarl W. Reid\, Ed.D.\, CDP   \nSenior Vice Provost and Chief Inclusion Officer\, Northeastern University  “The Case for Diversity and Inclusion\, From An Engineer’s Perspective”  \nBehrakis 010  \nABSTRACT:  \nThis talk makes the case for why diversity and inclusion matter and offers steps to creating more equitable and inclusive campuses and workplaces. \nBIOGRAPHY:  \nDr. Karl W. Reid was appointed Senior Vice Provost and Chief Inclusion Officer at Northeastern University on April  1\, 2021. He also holds the title of Professor of Practice in the Graduate School of Education in the College of  Professional Studies. Prior to joining Northeastern\, Dr. Reid served for seven years as the Executive Director of the  National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE)\, marking his return to the organization that gave him his first major leadership experience 32 years earlier. A certified diversity professional\, Dr. Reid has been a leading national advocate for diversity and inclusion\, and increasing college access\, opportunity\, and success for low-income and minority youth. \nDr. Reid came to NSBE from the United Negro College Fund (UNCF)\, where he oversaw new program development\, research\, and capacity building for the organization’s 37 historically black colleges and universities and held the title of Senior Vice President for Research\, Innovation\, and Member College  Engagement. Before his service at UNCF\, he worked in positions of progressive responsibility to increase diversity at his alma mater\, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)\, which he left as Associate Dean of Undergraduate Education and Director of the Office of Minority Education. While working at MIT as Director of Engineering Outreach Programs\, Dr. Reid earned his Doctor of Education degree at Harvard University. His dissertation explored the interrelationship of race\, identity\, and academic achievement for African American males in college. He is the author of “Working Smarter\, Not Just Harder: Three Sensible Strategies for  Succeeding in College…and Life.” Dr. Reid is also a founding member of the 50K Coalition\, a national effort to produce 50\,000 diverse engineering graduates annually by 2025. \nDr. Reid was born in the Bronx\, New York\, and grew up in Roosevelt\, New York\, a mostly working-class\, African-American community on Long Island. The high value his parents placed on education\, and his admission to a well-resourced\, magnet high school near Roosevelt\, put him on a track to follow his older brother to MIT\, where he earned his undergraduate and master’s degrees in Materials Science and Engineering and was a Tau Beta Pi Scholar. He credits his membership in the NSBE chapter at MIT  with giving a vital boost to his self-confidence and leadership skills. He joined the Society during his freshman year\, was elected chapter Vice President during his junior year\, and subsequently served as NSBE National  Chair. \nAfter graduating from MIT\, Dr. Reid worked in the computer industry for 12 years in product management\, marketing\, sales\, and consulting. In 1991\, five years into a successful career in sales and marketing with IBM Corporation\, Dr. Reid read Jonathan Kozol’s “Savage Inequalities\,” a seminal book about educational disparities in the U.S.\, which sparked his passion for bringing about positive change through the education of African Americans and other underserved populations. \nDr. Reid sits on the National Council for Expanding American Innovation at the US Patent and  Trademark Office; the Committee on Addressing the Underrepresentation of Women of Color in Technology at the National Academy of Engineering; the American Society for Civil Engineers Industrial Leaders Council;  the Dean’s advisory cabinets for the Harvard University School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and the University of Michigan College of Engineering. He holds memberships in the American Society for Engineering Education and the Council of Engineering and Scientific Society Executives. \nHe is a frequent contributor to the national diversity engineering dialogue and author of several commentary pieces\, and he has been quoted in numerous articles in publications such as Forbes\, The Wall Street Journal\, U.S.  News & World Report\, and The Hechinger Report.

SUMMARY:Showcase of Opportunities for Undergraduate Research and Creative Endeavor (SOURCE)
DESCRIPTION:Calling all Huskies! Learn more about what cutting-edge research and creative endeavor look like at Northeastern. This is your chance to talk one-on-one with faculty from across the colleges about their research – and how you can get involved in projects during your time at Northeastern. Not everyone will have open positions right now but you’ll get a chance to see the range of work that’s happening and begin to make connections that you can build for the rest of your time at Northeastern. \nBefore you attend\, here’s some advice to consider. \n\nTake a look and see who’ll be there. We have an online database of attendees. Go through it and learn more about the project areas and visit the researcher/creative practitioner web pages. This will help prepare you for a conversation and help you ask any questions you might have.\nGet ready for a conversation from your end. Think about goals you have \, as well as your current interests and skills and those that you want to develop. How does what you have read about the various projects align with what you know about yourself and your interests? Take a minute to practice a simple declarative sentence\, “My name is ____________. I study ____________. I think that this part of your work ____________ is interesting because of this intellectual reason/moral imperative/grand impact ____________.  I’d love to learn more about it because of this previous experience ____________ and these skills ____________ and my long-term interest in ____________.  How I can get involved?” You might not know how to fill in all of the blanks right now (that’s why you’re in school) but see how close you can get.  When you know who you are\, what you value\, and how you can contribute — and get some practice saying it out loud– being confident becomes easier.\nRemember\, not every faculty member will have open positions now — but a good impression lasts a long time. You can’t go wrong with being polite and courteous.   Address faculty members as Professor until told otherwise (better to err on the side of formality).\nKeep in mind your time! If you want to be involved in research or creative practice\, a good thing to keep in mind is that faculty members will commit a lot of time to training and mentoring their undergraduates. They’re investing time\, energy\, and expertise in their mentees and want to know that you will make time for the projects\, show up consistently\, and ideally be with them for longer than a semester if possible. The learning curve of most projects is steep and it takes some time to get to the meatiest parts of the work. Be honest with yourself about the commitment you can make\, be frank with your faculty mentors\, and stick to your word. Communication and honesty in relationships\, including the mentoring relationship\, is key.\n\nSOURCE is a collaboration between Bouvé College of Health Sciences; College of Arts\, Media and Design; College of Engineering; College of Science; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; D’Amore-McKim School of Business; and Khoury College of Computer Science. It is coordinated by Undergraduate Research and Fellowships on behalf of the Office of the Chancellor.

SUMMARY:ChE Seminar Series: Chemo-mechanics and solid-state batteries
DESCRIPTION:ChE Seminar Series Presents: \nDr. Kelsey Hatzell\, Ph.D \nAssistant Professor in the Andlinger Center for Energy and Environment \nAssistant Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering \nPrinceton University \nChemo-mechanic and solid-state batteries \nAbstract: Transportation accounts for 23% of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions and electrification is a pathway toward ameliorating these growing challenges.  All solid-state batteries could potentially address the safety and driving range requirements necessary for widespread adoption of electric vehicles. However\, the power densities of all-solid-state batteries are limited because of ineffective ion transport at solid|solid interfaces. New insight into the governing physics that occur at intrinsic and extrinsic interfaces are critical for developing engineering strategies for the next generation of energy-dense batteries. However\, buried solid|solid interfaces are notoriously difficult to observe with traditional bench-top and lab-scale experiments. In this talk\, I discuss opportunities for tracking phenomena and mechanisms in all solid-state batteries in-situ using advanced synchrotron techniques. Synchrotron techniques that combine reciprocal and real space techniques are capable of tracking multi-scale structural phenomena from the nano- to meso-scale. This talk will discuss the role microstructure plays on transport and interfacial properties that govern adhesion. Quantification of salient descriptors of structure in solid-state batteries is critical for understanding the mechanochemical nature of all solid-state batteries. \nBiography: Dr. Hatzell is an assistant professor at Princeton university in the Andlinger Center for Energy and Environment and department of Mechanical and aerospace engineering.

SUMMARY:ECE PhD Proposal Review: Tirthak Patel
DESCRIPTION:PhD Proposal Review: Toward System Software Stack for NISQ–era Quantum Computers \nTirthak Patel \nLocation: Zoom Link \nAbstract: Despite rapid progress in quantum computing in the last decade\, the limited usability of quantum computers remains a major roadblock toward the wider adoption of quantum computing. Prohibitively high error rates on existing Near-term Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) computers limit their usability even for quantum-advantage-proven algorithms (that is\, algorithms that are infeasible or orders of magnitude slower on classical computers). As a result\, the executions of these algorithms on existing quantum computers are highly erroneous and produce noisy program outputs. Currently\, quantum computing programmers lack system software tools and methods to estimate the correct output from these erroneous executions. \nThis dissertation demonstrates how to extract correct program output from noisy executions on today’s erroneous quantum computers. In particular\, this dissertation describes the design and implementation of a suite of cross-layer system software for extracting meaningful output from the erroneous executions using hardware-level quantum pulse control\, noise-aware quantum compilation\, and post-execution error mitigation. The real-system prototypes and experimental evaluation on IBM quantum computers demonstrate how specific quantum mechanics properties\, hardware-level pulse control\, and post-execution statistical processing can be put together to improve the usability of today’s quantum computers transparently. This dissertation achieves this without requiring user intervention\, domain knowledge about quantum algorithms\, or additional quantum hardware support. \nThis dissertation opens up new research avenues for hybrid quantum-classical computing and lowers the barrier to entry for quantum computing research via open-sourcing multiple novel datasets and system software frameworks (independently verified and results reproduced by other researchers in the community).

SUMMARY:BioE Seminar Series Presents: Victor Baracos
DESCRIPTION:Victor Barocas\, Ph.D. \nProfessor\, Department of Biomedical Engineering\, University of Minnesota \n“Computer Modeling of Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm\, or How I Learned Accept Change\, Variability\, and Failure as a Part of Life” \nWednesday\, October 20th\, 2021 \n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EST \nABSTRACT: \nAscending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (ATAA)\, a condition in which the section of the aorta immediately adjacent to the heart becomes enlarged\, presents a major clinical challenge. The disease is largely asymptomatic and harmless unless the tissue dissects or ruptures\, in which case severe consequences almost always ensue. Repair surgery is costly and carries a 2-4% chance of patient mortality. The challenge\, then\, is to decide whether to perform the surgery when the patient might be just fine without it. Current guidelines are based primarily on aneurysm size\, but numerous other potential biomarkers exist\, including other geometric measures\, mechanical measures\, genetic factors\, and biofluidic factors; some of these are directly attainable in the clinic\, and others are attainable through patient specific computer models. Our group is exploring ATAA with a combination of computer and experimental models in hope of identifying better ways to assess patient risk. The seminar will discuss computer models at both the tissue and the structural scale\, how they relate to experimental studies\, and where I see us and the field going in the future \nBIOGRAPHY: \nVictor Barocas is a Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Minnesota\, where he has taught since 2000. His research focuses on soft-tissue biomechanics\, with applications in the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems. Experimental work focuses on novel techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties\, particularly in heterogeneous tissues\, and his computational work focuses on structural and multiscale models of tissue mechanics. He has served for the last ten years as co-Editor-in-Chief of the ASME Journal of Biomechanical Engineering. \nInterested in attending? Email Liz at e.chesley@northeastern.edu for the Zoom link.

SUMMARY:ChE Seminar Series: Towards Sustainable Energy and Materials: Carbon Capture\, Utilization and Storage
DESCRIPTION:ChE Seminar Series Presents: \nDr. A.-H. Alissa Park\, Ph.D \nLenfest Earth Institute Professor of Climate Change\nDepartment of Earth and Environmental Engineering & Department of Chemical Engineering\nDirector of the Lenfest Center for Sustainable Energy\,\nColumbia University \nTowards Sustainable Energy and Materials: Carbon Capture\, Utilization and Storage  \nAbstract: \nIn order to meet the ever-increasing global energy demands while stabilizing the atmospheric CO2 level\, the development of carbon capture\, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies is one of the critical needs. In particular\, there has been significant efforts to develop CO2 capture solvents and some (e.g.\, amine-based aqueous solvents) have shown very promising results. Unfortunately\, the energy requirement for the current aqueous solvent systems is still considered to be too high. Thus\, efforts have been focused on the development of second and third-generation CO2 capture solvents which are often water-free. Nanoparticle Organic Hybrid Materials (NOHMs) are a new class of organic-inorganic hybrids that consist of a hard nanoparticle core functionalized with a molecular organic corona that possesses a high degree of chemical and physical tunability. It has recently been discovered that NOHMs have interesting electrolyte properties which may allow the CO2 capture to be pulled by the in-situ CO2 conversion reactions. The development of these unique nanoscale hybrid materials will not only advance CO2 capture materials design but also introduce unique research opportunities in various energy and environmental fields. This seminar will discuss the challenges and opportunities of different CO2 capture and conversion pathways including Negative Emission Technologies (e.g.\, Direct Air Capture) that can allow the development of circular carbon and hydrogen economy using renewable energy. \nBio: \nAh-Hyung (Alissa) Park is the Lenfest Earth Institute Professor of Climate Change in the Departments of Earth and Environmental Engineering & Chemical Engineering at Columbia University. She is also the Director of the Lenfest Center for Sustainable Energy. Her research focuses on sustainable energy and materials conversion pathways with emphasis on integrated Carbon Capture\, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) technologies addressing climate change. Park group is also working on Direct Air Capture of CO2 and Negative Emission Technologies including BioEnergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) and sustainable construction materials with low carbon intensity. Park received a number of professional awards and honors including the U.S. C3E Research Award (2018)\, PSRI Lectureship Award in Fluidization at AIChE (2018)\, ACS Energy and Fuels Division – Emerging Researcher Award (2018)\, ACS WCC Rising Star Award (2017)\, and the National Science Foundation CAREER Award (2009). Park also led a number of global and national discussions on CCUS including the Mission Innovation Workshop on Carbon Capture\, Utilization and Storage in 2017 and the National Petroleum Council CCUS Report in 2019. She is an elected Fellow of AIChE\, AAAS\, ACS\, and RSC. \n  \nPlease contact a.ramsey@northeastern.edu for the remote seminar link.

SUMMARY:ECE PhD Proposal Review: Chengju Yu
DESCRIPTION:PhD Proposal Review: Development of Interface-Engineered Thin Films and Magnetodielectric Bulk Composites for MMIC Applications \nChengju Yu \nLocation: Zoom Link \nAbstract: Magnetodielectric materials are ubiquitous in electronic\, energy\, automotive\, communication\, and medical systems over radio frequency bands from high frequency to quasi-optical frequencies. With recent developments in modern power and communication technologies\, improvements in magnetic materials and related components have attracted a great deal of attention from academic and industrial research groups.\nIn this proposal review\, we demonstrate multiple paths to the development of next generation magnetodielectric thin films and bulk composites that offer disruptive advances to performance and size reduction\, including:\n(i) Consistent and reliable processing protocols are established using interface-engineered barium magnetoplumbite films deposited on Si-polar SiC substrates with AlN capping layers and MgO nucleation layers for microwave and millimeter-wave monolithic integrated circuits (MMICs);\n(ii) Both thin and thick yttrium iron garnet films are achieved using PLD and LPE with outstanding crystalline and magnetic properties to meet the needs of magnonics and spintronics technologies; (iii) Inductor cores are developed for power generation\, conversion\, conditioning functions for use in power electronic systems and high-power pulse generators operating at 100s kHz and 100s MHz frequencies\, respectively. Power loss and thermal management models of non-linear magnetic inductors are established and implemented with viable paths demonstrated using interface-engineered composites as a means of achieving high magnetization\, high permeability\, low core losses.\nThe common theme of all three projects is the engineering of the chemistry\, structure\, magnetic and electric properties of the interface between the principal layers\, films\, and grains that constitute the product in order to optimize performance.
