Samet Oymak, Assistant Professor of electrical and computer engineering, and Fabio Pasqualetti, Professor of mechanical engineering, received a $3.75 million Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) research grant from the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command’s Army Research Laboratory, to study brain dynamics and reinforcement learning. Oymak and Pasqualetti will serve as co-PI's in the collaborative...
Professors Konstantinos Karydis, Salman Asif, Elena Kokkoni, Will Grover, and Philip Brisk received a $1.5 million National Robotics Initiative (NRI) grant from National Science Foundation (NSF) on soft wearable assistive robotics for pediatric rehabilitation.
Professor Salman Asif has received a $300,000, three-year grant from the Air Force Office of Scientific Research, or AFOSR, to develop an integrated sensing and learning framework using distributed and multi-modal sensors. In this project, he will develop a new framework to co-design sensing and learning algorithms to capture and efficiently process only the most...
Padmaja Jonnalagedda ( VISLab), PhD student of Distinguished Professor Bir Bhanu in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), won the Best Presentation Award at the First Artificial Intelligence for Space (AI4Space) workshop held in conjunction with the Premier IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) in June 2021. The paper is based on a...
It is critical to performance engineering that we can investigate the efficiency of applications in utilizing hardware components. As new hardware technologies, including hardware accelerators and fast, non-volatile memory technologies emerge and be integrated into systems, it is essential that profiling tools must allow performance engineers to re-examine the interactions between applications and emerging hardware...
Hung-Wei Tseng, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at UC Riverside, and his former undergraduate student researchers. Alec Rohloff, Zackary Allen, Joshua Okrend and Chengyi Nie as well as a high-school student intern, Kung-Min Lin, received the outstanding paper award in the 27th IEEE Real-Time and Embedded Technology and Applications Symposium (RTAS 2021)...
High thermal conductivity mediated by spin excitations has been recently observed in several quantum materials with unique low-dimensional crystal structures. However, the thermal transport mechanisms of spin excitations are not well understood. ECE Professor Xi Chen and his team have reported the synthesis and thermal transport measurements of spin ladder Sr 14Cu 24O 41 microstructures...
