Physics Informed Neural Networks – Exploring the Future of Computational Electromagnetics

Computational electromagnetics (CEM) is a field of research devoted to simulating the complicated electromagnetic systems foundational in our technology, security, and exploration. Historically, problems have been solved by breaking them into many small pieces that can be solved by a computer; an approach that makes it difficult to solve very complicated problems. Today, a new […]

Benchmarking ML based navigation systems in video games

This project develops and benchmarks novel offline training algorithms for AI navigation in gaming environments. As such, it is intended to be a self-contained project. Traditional video game navigation heavily relies on navigation meshes (navmeshes) for pathfinding. Navmeshes offer a simplified representation of complex environments but face limitations in portraying nuanced navigation abilities, such as […]

The effect of a 16-week intervention of increased Greek yogurt consumption on circulating markers of bone metabolism and inflammation in youth and young adult athletes

Physical activity and dairy intake during growth and development are each known to improve peak bone mass. Peak bone mass, the maximum amount of bone a person will have in their lifetime, is typically reached in the early 20’s in females and late 20’s in males. However, evidence suggests that young people do not consume […]
