Machine learning for robust and reliable measurements

In this project, we will employ deep learning techniques to enhance the accuracy, interpretability, and robustness of indirect measurements. Particularly, we focus on problems of i) interpretation and analysis of metagenomic data obtained from agricultural soil samples, characterized by high-dimensional feature spaces with a relatively small number of soil samples (for an overview, see [1]-[4]), […]

Create Your Self: A Study of Avatars in Virtual Reality

This project aims to simplify the creation of avatars for use in research, with a focus on self, identity, and facial recognition. Avatars, or digital selves, can be challenging to make and limited by software, and this is made worse when participants’ avatars look different from themselves in real life. The goal of this research […]

Stretchable Electronics for 6G Anomalous Reflectors

6G is the next generation of wireless network technologies. 6G signals are millimeter-waves, which are highly prone to blockage from obstacles such as trees or buildings. Due to this, behavior of the wireless environment is highly probabilistic and coverage holes can appear. This project aims to develop a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) which has the […]
