Prof. Jean Anne Incorvia of Texas ECE along with Prof. Supriyo Bandyopadhyay of Virginia Commonwealth University have received a National Science Foundation (NSF) Grant to study and demonstrate a system that will greatly reduce the hardware burden associated with generating correlations between two or more p-bit streams.

To better understand the company and the problems they are addressing, VMblog reached out to Mohit Tiwari, CEO at Symmetry Systems, to learn more. 

Prof. Andrea Thomaz is developing robots to take on tasks in hospitals to reduce exposure risk for frontline health care workers, including operating ventilators, taking inventory and delivering PPE.

Texas ECE chair Dr. Diana Marculescu sat down with TWIML to discuss her work on hardware-aware machine learning.

“With a second wave of the coronavirus likely to appear right as we get into flu season, there’s an urgent need for diagnostics that can differentiate between COVID-19 and influenza,” said Deji Akinwande, a professor in the Cockrell School of Engineering’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

The team’s findings were published in May in Nature Photonics. The team includes UT’s Seth R. Bank, a professor in the Cockrell School’s Department of Electrical and Computing Engineering, UT electrical and computer engineering Ph.D. student Stephen March, and, from UVA, Campbell and postdoc Andrew Jones.

Prof Alan Bovik, Prof. Sriram Vishwanath and their students have been awarded 2020 EURASIP Best Paper Awards.

Prof. Deji Akinwande and his research team published their findings today in the journal Nature Electronics.

The discovery is part of a larger $6.5 million project sponsored by the U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research and led by electrical and computer engineering professors Ray Chen and David Z. Pan.

Texas ECE held a Virtual Honors event on Wednesday, May 20 to honor students and faculty for their successes and contributions during the 2019-2020 academic year.
