MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Neural Operator Design From A Test-Time Learning Perspective”
August 21, 2026
Neural operator models offer a path toward modeling physical systems at low computational cost by learning mappings between function spaces. However, as mesh sizes and model parameter counts scale up, […]

August 26, 2026
As AI systems increasingly mediate access to information, we need better ways to understand how they behave in practice. In this talk, I use election-related information as my main case […]

ASSET Seminar: “Learning Reliable and Robust Generative Intelligence”
Abstract: Robust simulation and precise modeling of physical dynamics are essential for advancing perception, planning, and control in the development of generalist physical agents. In this talk, I will present […]
ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Training Adaptive and Sample-Efficient Autonomous Agents”
AI agents, both in the physical and digital worlds, should generalize from their training data to three increasingly difficult levels of deployment: training tasks and environments, training tasks and environments […]
Spring 2025 GRASP SFI: Anastasia Bizyaeva, Cornell University, “Nonlinear dynamics of social decision-making and belief formation”
This will be a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Motivated by the study of complex social behavior and by the bottom-up […]
CBE Seminar: “Computational Design and Simulations of Soft Matter: From Molecular Insights to Functional Materials” (Antonia Statt, UIUC)
Abstract: I will present the phase separation behavior of different sequences of a coarse-grained model for sequence defined macromolecules. They exhibit a surprisingly rich phase behavior, and not only conventional […]
