[] On this celebratory IEEE Day, let us rejoice in the combined IEEE worldwide activities of 39 technical societies and 7 interdisciplinary councils on one side of the IEEE coin, balanced with local sections and student chapters, bringing a physical presence of IEEE to local communities. By the way, one could argue that IEEE also has a 3rd leg into humanitarian activities. These S/C span a great swathe from hardware to software, including electronic devices, solar/wind energy production, power transmission, control theory, image compression, signal processing, and computer architecture. One could say this moves from applied physics to applied math. However, this session drills down to predominantly 1 of these societies, the electron device society, where the field of semiconductor materials and devices thrives. So, with the USA's Chips and Science Act to onshore semiconductor chip manufacturing, what does this mean to you and your communities. First, the Chips portion supports semiconductor companies to build or expand domestic chip production. The Science portion aims to perform workforce development to populate those factories. Where will this new workforce come from and what do you need to do to prepare for your future? This talk aims to take a critical look at the opportunities before you in the semiconductor industry. With time permitting and audience interest, some discussion in humanitarian roles IEEE plays will also be discussed. Speaker(s): Paul Berger, PhD Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/434305

2024 Fall IEEE OKC Webinar SeriesIEEE OKC invites you to join the event below, organized by Oklahoma International Publishing, as part of its 2024 Fall OkIP Conferences on Wednesday, October 2, 2024.This virtual event is free of charge to IEEE Oklahoma City members. Please register ahead of time to receive the proper instructions for remote participation:>> Speaker:Prof. Juyang Weng, PhDIEEE Life FellowFounder & PresidentBrain-Mind Institute, Michigan, USAGENISAMA LLC, Michigan, USA>> Talk:The First Conscious Learning Algorithm Avoids “Deep Learning” Misconduct>>> Abstract:From a fruit fly to a human, with many animal species in between, do they share a set of biological mechanisms to regulate the lifelong development of the brains? We have seen very impressive advances in understanding the principles of neuroscience. However, what is still missing is a holistic algorithm that is both broad and deep. By broad, we mean it approximates such mechanisms across a range of species. By deep, we mean that it specifies sufficient details so that the algorithm can be biologically and computationally verified and possibly corrected across a deep hierarchy of scales, from neurotransmitters, to cells, to brain patterns, to behaviors, to intelligence, to consciousness across the time span of a life. This talk outlines such a conscious learning algorithm, the first in the category as far as the presenter is aware of, called Developmental Network 3 (DN-3). All its predecessors, Cresceptron, IHDR, DN-1 and DN-2 were not capable of conscious learning till DN-3. A major extension from DN-2 to DN-3 is that the model starts from a single cell inside the skull so that brain patterning is fully automatic in a coarse to fine way. This biological model has been supported by computational experiments with real sensory data for vision, audition, natural languages, and planning, to be presented during the talk. This first ever algorithm for conscious learning is free from “deep learning” misconduct, including ChatGPT.>>> About the speaker:Prof. Juyang Weng received the BS degree from Fudan University, in 1982, M. Sc. and PhD degrees from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, in 1985 and 1989, respectively, all in computer science.

Topic Join our IEEE Lafayette Section for a tour of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) in Livingston, LA! The U.S. National Science Foundation Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (NSF LIGO), was designed to open the field of gravitational-wave astrophysics through the direct detection of gravitational waves predicted by Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity. NSF LIGO's multi-kilometer-scale gravitational wave detectors use laser interferometry to measure the minute ripples in space-time caused by passing gravitational waves from cataclysmic cosmic events such as colliding neutron stars or black holes, or by supernovae. NSF LIGO comprises two widely-separated interferometers within the United States—one in Hanford, Washington and the other in Livingston, Louisiana—operated in unison to detect gravitational waves. LIGO made its first detection of gravitational waves, generated by a pair of colliding black holes some 1.3 billion light years away. Since that historic day, LIGO's engineers have continued to improve the detectors' sensitivities. The success of these improvements is evidenced by the many more gravitational wave detections that have since been made. Ultimately, with continued refinement and upgrading, LIGO's detectors will achieve a sensitivity 10 times greater than Initial LIGO, bringing 1000 times more galaxies into our observational range. Agenda Tour will take place at LIGO in Livingston, LA on Saturday, October 5th. LIGO is located at 19100 Ligo Rd, Livingston, LA 70754 - searching "LIGO Livingston" in Google Maps will direct you to the parking lot area. We will meet in the parking lot as a group for 10:05 AM and the tour will start at 10:15 AM and will last 1.5 to 2 hours. Please make sure you are there on time so we do not leave you behind! Register by Wednesday, October 2nd, 2024 at 2:00 pm to let us know you will be attending so we can let LIGO know a head count. [] LIGO, LIGO Road, Livingston, Louisiana, United States, 70754

Speaker Bio: Ethan Rodriguez is a student at St. Mary’s University, pursuing both undergraduate and master’s courses in software engineering, along with a minor in physics. Now entering his third year of undergraduate studies, Ethan recently completed a summer internship at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where he worked in the Computational Research Division. During this internship, he contributed to a project focused on enhancing the fusion ignition process through machine learning techniques. This experience not only aligned with Ethan’s interest in physics but also deepened his understanding of machine learning. Abstract: To enhance the efficiency of fusion ignition processes by maximizing proton production, a neural network (NN) has been trained on experimental data from the BELLA iP2 laser facility. The NN parameters have been optimized to fit this data. The next step involves training the NN using both experimental and simulation data, while maintaining their correlation, to eliminate the need for a time-consuming experimental campaign across all input parameters. This NN will help identify the optimal operating parameters to maximize proton output within a specified energy range.

This dynamic session uses case studies drawn from the IEEE community to help you dramatically improve your ability to use hybrid work as an instrument to improve retention and productivity while cutting costs. Many leaders rely on traditional office-centric collaboration and leadership styles in managing hybrid teams. Yet research conclusively demonstrates that, instead of incrementally improving on the old-school office-centric approach, the best outcomes in managing hybrid teams come from adopting a flexible hybrid-first work model. Doing so results in much higher retention and productivity, reduces costs, and boosts engagement, innovation, collaboration, and risk mitigation. Through adopting hybrid work best practices based on this training, you will empower yourself and your team to maximize retention, productivity, and cost savings in our increasingly-disrupted future of work.All attendees will have an opportunity to receive a complimentary copy of the speaker's best-selling book on which this talk is based, called Returning to the Office and Leading Hybrid and Remote Teams.Speaker(s): Dr. Gleb TsipurskyAgenda: IEEE-USA's free webinars/events are designed to help you find your next job, maintain your career, negotiate an appropriate salary, understand ethical considerations in the workplace and learn about other career-building strategies and public policy developments that affect your profession.For information regarding upcoming webinars or to visit our vast webinar archive, please visit: (https://ieeeusa.org/careers/webinars/)(https://newsletter.smartbrief.com/rest/sign-up/2479DAB0-4089-43E7-925D-86AE0C1E6244?campaign=e0d52cef)Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/427447

IEEE Distinguished Lecture The slowing down of Moore’s Law growth has coincided with escalating computational demands from machine learning and artificial intelligence. An emerging trend in computing involves building physics-inspired computers that leverage the intrinsic properties of physical systems for specific domains of applications. Probabilistic computing with probabilistic bits (p-bits) has emerged as a promising candidate in this area, offering an energy-efficient approach to probabilistic algorithms and applications -. Several implementations of p-bits, ranging from standard complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology to nanodevices, have been demonstrated. Among these, the most promising p-bits appear to be based on stochastic magnetic tunnel junctions (sMTJs) . Such sMTJs harness the natural randomness in low-barrier nanomagnets to create energy-efficient and fast fluctuations, up to gigahertz frequencies . In this talk, I will discuss how magnetic p-bits can be combined with conventional CMOS to create hybrid probabilistic-classical computers for various applications. I will provide recent examples of how p-bits are naturally applicable to combinatorial optimization, such as solving the Boolean satisfiability problem , energy-based generative machine learning models like deep Boltzmann machines, and quantum simulation for investigating many-body quantum systems. Through experimentally informed projections for scaled p-bit computers using sMTJs, I will demonstrate how physics-inspired probabilistic computing can lead to graphics-processing-unit-like success stories for a sustainable future in computing.

This webinar is a collaboration between IEEE-USA Career & Member Services and IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE). Trying to re-enter the workforce after an extended absence presents challenges, and can be a daunting task. Changes have happened in the workplace and in technologies used. The atmosphere and expectations may have changed (for example, the impacts COVID had on remote work for many jobs!) You have changed… and self-doubt may have crept in after being away! However, preparing in advance is the key to easing the challenges. In this talk, you will hear about my own return to work after 12 years of minimal part-time employment in my field, and also information from my own research into what experts recommend. You will learn: - What is an extended absence (and the impact of how long “extended” is!) - Why it is important to prepare for returning - When to start preparing - How to prepare - Who to seek out for support / assistance - Where to look for opportunities Speaker(s): Jill Gostin Agenda: IEEE-USA's free webinars/events are designed to help you find your next job, maintain your career, negotiate an appropriate salary, understand ethical considerations in the workplace and learn about other career-building strategies and public policy developments that affect your profession.

Calling all makers, hobbyists, etc.! The Lone Star Chapter of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society is holding a “maker fest,” and we’re looking for people to show off their home and hobby projects. This meeting will be a good chance to show off the project you’ve been working on for your house, back yard, etc. The project does not need to be complete – in fact, this can be a good opportunity to get advice on how to get it finished! If you have a project that is too big to bring in, we can provide screens to show off images and videos of your work. The meeting will be at Trinity University, in CSI-282 (Center for Sciences and Innovation, ground floor) and students are especially invited to attend. If you’re interested in bringing a project to share, please contact [email protected] so we can make sure we have a space for you! Free parking is available – we recommend you park in Lot C or Lot B.
