Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies have fueled many burgeoning applications from on-device learning to self-driving cars and collaborative robots. Despite these unprecedented advancements, the holy grail of enabling fully autonomous machine intelligence remains far from our grasp. One key challenge is the lack of performant and efficient hardware implementation, especially in the case of embedded/edge devices with rich sensory inputs yet stringent resource constraints. In this talk, I will present our work to tackle this challenge from a unique angle that leverages information processing ability innate in the analog/mixed-signal (AMS) domain by embedding AI computation directly inside the pixel circuits, delivering much-improved performance and efficiency. I will first introduce our design of in-sensor learned compressive acquisition (LeCA) and then talk about a novel in-sensor architecture that supports real-time gaze tracking, a key primitive in AR/VR applications. Finally, I will present CamJ, a first-of-its-kind energy modeling framework that empowers designers to navigate the large algorithm-hardware co-design space of computational image sensors.

Dr. Xiaonan Lu, an Associate Professor from Purdue University, West Lafayette, will give us a presentation on the latest modeling techniques and applications of power electronics in power systems. Free food and beverage will be provided to the in-person attendees, along with 1 PDH for those who needs continuing education hours. Abstract: Modern power electronic systems with enhanced observability and controllability serve as the backbone for bridging bulk power systems and individual customers. As reported by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), approximately 80% of the electricity used in the U.S. is expected to flow through power electronic equipment by 2030, which depicts the trend and the future of energy evolution driven by advanced power electronics. It is noteworthy that power electronics as versatile techniques provide solutions in various areas and applications, ranging from power generation and distribution in modern smart grids to intelligent electronics for end-users. This presentation will focus on the modeling, control, and real-world applications of grid-interactive power electronic inverters and how emerging modeling and control technologies could be utilized to advance the state-of-the-art of power electronics intensive power systems, emphasizing resiliency, stability, and sustainability enhancement in the areas of reconfigurable energy systems with dynamic microgrids, renewable energy integration through resilient power electronic interfaces, among others.
