CornCon Cybersecurity Conference - CornCon 11 "Comic Corn" October 10-11, 2025 @ RiverCenter, Davenport, IA Visit https://corncon.net to learn more! This year we are expecting 400+ cyber professionals in Davenport for the 11th annual CornCon Cybersecurity Conference. There will be workshops, contests, a Partner & Vendor Expo, and 70+ expert speakers. This conference is aimed at everyone from college students to senior cyber professionals. We have attendees from all sizes and industries, and our content is timely and we ensure you will gain take aways to apply at work. We keep our ticket prices low, and offer scholarships to anyone who needs one. Attendees will receive a conference t-shirt, food & beverages, and 8 CPE credits per day they attend! There is a special event for cybersecurity leaders (must be CISO or a top cyber leader at your organization), the CornCon CISO Executive Summit. This is held on Thursday (10/9/25) at EICC Urban Campus in Davenport, from 9 AM to 5 PM, followed by a happy hour and CISO dinner. The Summit has a special agenda that will be relevant to cyber leaders, such as working with your Board, cyberinsurance, leadership, nation state attacks, resilience, and a seasoned CISO panel discussing the latest cyber risks. Attendees must purchase a VIP ticket and apply on the website. Approval is based on your role and tenure in the security industry. Use the code 'CC11-IEEE' for 30% off tickets (both CornCon and our Kids' Hacker Camp (STEM)! CornCon is looking for volunteers! As a volunteer, you get a free conference pass, a t-shirt, food and drinks and a great sense of accomplishment. Volunteers are needed for all of the above activities!

Neural networks can also produce human-interpretable results that de-mystify the algorithm design process, allowing us to rigorously determine hyperparameters such as training lengths. I will introduce two recent works where this methodology is used to tackle open problems in remote sensing and navigation. In underwater environment estimation, I will present a U-Net method for the acoustic mapping of reflective boundaries such as the sea surface and seafloor, with state-of-the-art performance and the new capability of jointly estimating the number of boundaries in the environment. In the field of robotic path planning, I will present a recurrent convolutional neural network (RCNN) method for solving a sub-class of Obstacle Avoiding Rectilinear Steiner Minimum Tree (OARSMT) problems. By learning an algorithm via reinforcement learning, whose intermediate stages are visible to the user, we devise augmentations that yield strong accuracy and runtime performances, which can lead to lower power consumption. Beyond their immediate applications, these new methods point to a general strategy of solving a broad class of joint parameter estimation problems via deep learning. Bio: Toros Arikan was born in Mount Kisco, NY, USA, in 1993. He obtained his B.S. and M.S. degrees from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, with a focus on digital communications and signal processing; and his Ph.D. degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2023, specializing in localization, tracking, and remote sensing. In 2023-25 he was a postdoctoral researcher at Rice University, where he researched deep learning methods for environment estimation, and robotic path planning algorithms for cluttered environments. He is currently a new assistant professor in EE at the University of Notre Dame, where he teaches Array Signal Processing and is actively recruiting graduate students and postdoctoral candidates.
