On June 2, their 1/10th vehicles will go head to head against one another, running time trials on 3 tracks that will be set up inside of ESB 1001 in our first annual UCSB RoboRacer Competition. They ...

Combinatorial Optimization Problems (COPs) are prevalent in our daily lives, from route searching to optimal placement or optimization of scheduling. Solving these problems effectively can lead to ...

As interest in communication and imaging at millimeter-wave (mm-wave) frequencies grows, the demand for high-performance transistor technologies becomes increasingly critical. Nitrogen-polar gallium ...

Silicon nitride has become a widely used material platform for photonic integrated circuits (PICs), due to its broad optical transparency window (400 nm – 2.5 μm), relatively high refractive index, ...

This talk explores the properties of overparameterized deep neural networks, with a particular focus on training with imbalanced data. We propose a theoretically grounded loss function tailored for ...
