We proudly present an IEEE foundation video documentary entitled: “The Bit Player“. One of Michigan’s famous sons, however not many Michiganians know about him – Indeed few know that Claude E. Shannon is also credited as the father of "Information Theory". You will learn more about him and at the same time get a refresher on the mankind changing impact Claude Elmwood Shannon made on the world today. This documentary was made in 2018 and brought to you by the (https://www.ieeefoundation.org/) who partially funded this along with the (https://www.itsoc.org/) The trailer for this 90-minute video is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3OldEtfBrE&authuser=0 AFTER the movie - we can have a brief discussion session.

With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), this dream has seemingly become reality with driverless commercial operations already taking place in a handful of cities around the world. However, the recent tragic accident involving a pedestrian and a Cruise self-driving car, as well as a number of high-profile Tesla crashes, raise the possibility that suchsystems may not actually be as capable as envisioned, and questions have arisen about their safety both nationally and internationally. Given these concerns, it is important to step back and analyze both the actual safety records of these vehicles and just why AI is struggling to operate safely under all conditions in autonomous vehicles.This lecture will highlight the strengths and weaknesses of AI in self-driving cars, as well as in all safety-critical applications, and lay out a roadmap for safe integration of these technologies on public roadways.Speaker(s): Prof Missy Cummings, Agenda: 18:00 (UTC+1) Welcome and Introduction to Guest Speaker18:05 Lecture18:45 Questions and DiscussionsVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/406173

Maryam Mirzakhani (12 May 1977 – 14 July 2017) was an Iranian mathematician and a professor of mathematics at Stanford University. Her research topics included Teichmüller theory, hyperbolic geometry, ergodic theory, and symplectic geometry. On 13 August 2014, Mirzakhani was honored with the Fields Medal, the most prestigious award in mathematics, becoming the first woman to win the prize, as well as the first Iranian.

Guest Lecture Focus Innovations in robotics are now present in many aspects of human endeavour, from robotic vacuum cleaners to autonomous battlefield drone swarms. Alongside the intended effects of these innovations are some emerging, unintended adverse consequences. Legal and political processes exist in part to prevent and mitigate such harms. This presentation offers a systematic analysis of the emerging routes by which applications of embodied artificial intelligence—robotics—elicit public policy responses. It develops a typology that classifies robotics applications according to how they interact with individual humans, large-scale human populations, and specific physical settings; and whether the robots operate alone, in swarms, or in integrated cyberenvironments. Each case interacts with public policymaking processes in different ways, spanning tort liability law, regulatory codes and standards, and policies for assessing and managing risk. Clear roles emerge for voluntary standards, international collaboration among governance bodies, professionals cross-trained in robotics and public policy, and institutions that effectively anticipate emerging problems.

More than 40% of patients with cancer develop brain metastases, and Whole-Brain Radiation Therapy (WBRT) treatment is a well-established treatment for patients with brain metastases by radiologically controlling both visible tumors and invisible micro-metastases. However, conventional WBRT treatment planning is time-consuming. In addition, institutions vary in their clinical approaches to WBRT treatment planning. Furthermore, limited resources in low-to-middle-income countries can lead to delays, especially with regard to human resources. In this work, we developed, evaluated, and deployed a fully automated, muti-approaches, AI-based treatment planning solution for whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT).

[] Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimizing (QUBO) is a combinatorial optimization problem that has become essential to machine learning, economics, and healthcare applications. Therefore, QUBO solvers have seen a significant boost in their demand. These problems are computationally expensive, complex to parallelize, and require MIMD approaches. Ising machines such as D-wave have proposed a quantum solution for solving these NP-hard optimization problems. Several data-dominant application spaces, namely protein folding problems in Computational Biology, genome sequencing for COVID-19 and other pandemic diseases, and traffic patterns in social media, have benefitted from this problem mapping and one-shot solution. Although they can solve QUBO problems, the exceptionally high operating cost due to the cryo-cooling for quantum Ising machines might not justify the accuracy they achieve. In this talk, we will explore a magnetic QUBO-solver, which could solve the problems more quickly and cost-effectively at room temperature. Because the Hamiltonian of a system of coupled nanomagnets is quadratic, a wide class of quadratic energy minimization can be solved much more quickly by the relaxation of a grid of nanomagnets than by a conventional Boolean processor. Our research shows that magnet-based solutions are independent of problem size as the ground state of the magnets yield the optimization solution in parallel. This co-processor consists of a programmable grid of magnetic cells that can generate any magnetic layout in a 2D plane and will be integrated with peripheral control similar to STT-MRAM memory. This talk will focus on state-variable design, problem mapping and reconfigurability. Co-sponsored by: Gordon Burkhead Speaker(s): Sanjukta Bhanja, Agenda: 6:00 PM - Start of online/virtual event.

Please join us for a presentation at Basin Electric Cooperative (1717 E Interstate Ave, Bismarck, ND 58503) HDQ East 4 Wyoming D; CONF: HDQ East 4 Wyoming E. Visitors will park in the upper-level parking lot by Door 1 – main entrance. Everyone will need to check in with reception prior to entering the meeting, please bring a picture ID. Refreshments will be provided. Dr. Brij Singh from John Deere will be presenting remotely on Improved Control Algorithms for Power Quality Controlled Converters. Abstract: This presentation covers control algorithms for active filter (AF). A three-phase insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) based current controlled voltage source inverter (CC-VSI) with a DC bus capacitor can be used as an AF. There are many control algorithms for the AF such as reactive power control, active power control, power-balance control, direct and quadrature (d-q) model-based control systems, etc. It is noted that most existing feedforward control methods of the AF system result in switching notches (sharp-rising ripples) in the supply current during transitions of the stepped waveshape nonlinear load current. Through laboratory experimentation, it is demonstrated that the direct current control method, which works on the principle of feedback, eliminates switching notches in supply currents and locks sinusoidally shaped three-phase supply currents in-phase with the supply voltages. Use of wide bandgap (WBG) devices will also be discussed as WBG devices offer significant potential to miniaturize AF hardware. There will be cookies and coffee provided. Please RSVP so we can get a headcount for refreshments.

Rachel Louise Carson (May 27, 1907 – April 14, 1964) was an American marine biologist, writer, and conservationist whose sea trilogy (1941–1955) and book Silent Spring (1962) are credited with advancing marine conservation and the global environmental movement. Late in the 1950s, Carson turned her attention to conservation, especially some problems she believed were caused by synthetic pesticides. The result was the book Silent Spring (1962), which brought environmental concerns to an unprecedented share of the American people. Although Silent Spring was met with fierce opposition by chemical companies, it spurred a reversal in national pesticide policy, which led to a nationwide ban on DDT and other pesticides. It also inspired a grassroots environmental movement that led to the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Carson was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Jimmy Carter. AFTER the documentary - we can have a brief discussion session.

Cubic boron arsenide (c-BAs) is an indirect bandgap (1.82 eV) semiconductor, it has a similar band structure as silicon, but its thermal conductivity is 10 times higher and its carrier mobility is three times larger at room temperature. This suitable bandgap, simultaneous high thermal conductivity and high carrier mobility have made c-BAs a promising material for next generation electronics, especially after recent experimental verifications of these excellent thermal and electronic properties. However, many challenges still remain in order for c-BAs to realize its many promises. Besides the challenge of synthesis of uniform large size c-BAs crystals, techniques that can rapidly characterize and screen high quality c-BAs are still lacking. In this talk, I will first give a brief introduction to the history and basic properties of c-BAs, I will then explain its next-only-to-diamond high thermal conductivity. After that, I will show optical techniques that have been developed to measure thermal conductivity and carrier mobility. Finally I will show photoluminescence and Raman spectra of c-BAs, and discuss the challenges of using them to identify and characterize high quality c-BAs.
