Mon, Feb 17, 2020, 4:30 pm to 5:30 pmAbstract:
By enabling optical microsystems with new functionalities, improved system performance, and reduced size, weight, and power, integrated photonics is positioned to enable next-generation optical technologies that facilitate revolutionary advances for numerous fields spanning science and engineering, including computing, sensing, communications, displays, quantum, and biology.
The Privacy Loss Distribution and its Privacy Loss Class: The Central Limit Theorem in Differential Privacy and Other Insights
Mon, Feb 3, 2020, 4:30 pm to 5:30 pmAbstract: Quantifying the privacy loss of a privacy-preserving mechanism on potentially sensitive data is a complex and well-researched topic; the de-facto standard for privacy measures are ε-differential privacy (DP) and its versatile relaxation (ε,δ)-approximate differential privacy (ADP). Recently, novel variants of (A)DP emerged and focused on giving tighter privacy bounds under continual observation.
Wearable Brain-Machine Interface Architectures for Neurocognitive Stress

Practical Oblivious Computation
Tue, Feb 4, 2020, 4:30 pm to 5:30 pmAbstract:
Oblivious computation refers to the ability to compute on "encrypted" data, such that neither intermediate results nor the program's runtime behavior reveal anything about secret inputs. Oblivious computation can enable privacy-preserving data mining for sensitive data (e.g., genomic or financial data), and allow businesses and individuals to monetize their data without compromising their privacy.
Distributed Compression, the Information Bottleneck and Cloud Radio Access Networks: A Unified Information Theoretic View
Tue, Feb 11, 2020, 4:30 pm to 5:30 pmAbstract: This talk focuses on connections between relatively recent notions and variants of the Information Bottleneck and classical information theoretic frameworks such as: Remote Source-Coding; Information Combining; Common Reconstruction; The Wyner-Ahlswede-Korner Problem; The Efficiency of Investment Information; CEO Source Coding under Log-Loss and others. We overview the upink Cloud Radio Access Networks (CRAN) with oblivious processing, which is an attractive model for future wireless systems
Passivating contacts for silicon and perovskite solar cells
Fri, Dec 6, 2019, 11:30 am to 12:30 pmAbstract:
Controlling Dynamical Systems Using a Deep Reservoir Computer
Mon, Dec 9, 2019, 4:30 pm to 5:30 pmAbstract:
