From its early years as a global information infrastructure, the Internet, originally designed by and for the US Department of Defense, has been efficiently and effectively misused by various hate groups who often consider the US government their worst enemy. For example, it turned out that WWW played a critical role in the preparation of the 9/11 attacks both as a source of inspirational information and as a safe means of covert communication between the plotters. Shortly after the tragic events of 2001, our binational team of US and Israeli researchers started to explore the online activities of various hate groups. Initially, we developed a prototype of a monitoring system aimed at detecting the frequent visitors of terrorist websites, which may become influenced by terrorist propaganda and eventually develop into what we call today “the lone wolf attackers”. Shortly after, we focused on another, closely related question: what makes terrorist-generated propaganda content in various languages different from unbiased news reports discussing similar topics? Over the years, we developed prototypes of several additional text analysis tools such as text summarization algorithms, which can automatically summarize large amounts of untranslated content in any language, as well as AI tools for automated detection of metaphoric language. After presenting the motivational and ethical foundations of our research, I plan to describe some of our methods and finally, discuss past and future challenges in this important and fascinating domain.

[] Speaker: Prof. Shilong Pan, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics Topic: Microwave Photonic Radars Abstract: As the only method for all-weather and long-distance target detection and recognition, radar has been intensively studied since it was proposed, and is considered as an essential sensor for future intelligent society. In the past few decades, great efforts were devoted to improve radar’s functionality, precision, and response time, of which the key is to generate, control and process a wideband signal with a high speed. Thanks to the high frequency, large bandwidth, low loss transmission and electromagnetic immunity provided by modern photonics, implementation of the radars in the optical domain can provide better performance in terms of resolution, coverage and speed which may not be achievable using traditional, even state-of-the-art electronics. In this talk, I'll give an overview of the photonic technologies that are currently known to be attractive for radars. System architectures and their performance that may interest the radar society are emphasized. Emerging technologies in this area and possible future research directions are discussed. Speaker Bio: Shilong Pan is currently a professor of Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China. His research has focused on microwave photonics, which includes optical generation and processing of microwave signals, analog photonic links, photonic microwave measurement, and integrated microwave photonics. He has authored or co-authored over 300 papers in peer-reviewed journals. Prof. Pan is currently a deputy Editor of Chinese Optics Letters, an associate editor of IEEE/Optica Journal of Lightwave Technology and IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, and is the vice chair of IEEE MTT-22 Microwave Photonics. He has also served as a Chair of a number of international conferences, symposia, and workshops, including the TPC Chair of IEEE ICOCN 2015, the TPC chair of IEEE MWP2023, a TPC Co-chair of IEEE MWP2017, and a General Co-chair of IEEE MWP2021. Prof. Pan is a Fellow of IEEE, Optica, and SPIE. He was selected as an IEEE Photonics Society Distinguished Lecturer in 2019 and an IEEE MTT-S Distinguished Microwave Lecturer in 2022, and was a recipient of IEEE MTT-S Outstanding Young Engineer Award in 2021.

Clear and frequent communication is a foundational aspect of collaboration. Effective communication not only enables and sustains the shared situational awareness necessary for adaptation and coordination, but is often a requirement given the opaque nature of decision-making in autonomous systems. In this talk I will share my lab's recent work at the intersection of human-machine communication and human-aware optimization under partially observable conditions. Through these advances we are able to realize human-autonomy teams that are greater than the sum of their parts, enabling autonomous systems to operationalize psychological insights about human cognition for effective communication, to distill and disseminate knowledge from machine learning models for real-time multimodal decision support, and even to help humans overcome limitations induced by sensory impairment.

Engineers traditionally use deterministic modeling in their tasks, but challenges for developing and optimizing products and processes inspire us to venture beyond deterministic to probabilistic or stochastic modeling. In this continuation from the prior presentation, a case study applying predictive engineering for the optimization of 4 requirements for an integrated circuit (Integrated Alternator Regulator for automobiles) will be shared. Deterministic models were derived by using design of experiments (DOE) and response surface modeling (RSM) in concert with circuit simulations. These deterministic models were melded with probabilistic modeling using Monte Carlo Simulation and Variance Transmission. Yield Surface Modeling™ will be introduced and shared and applied for stochastic co-optimization of the four requirements of the design. Brief summaries and overviews of other applications of predictive engineering to integrated circuit design stochastic optimization will be shared.[]Co-sponsored by: Ad Astra FoundationSpeaker(s): Eric Maass, PhDVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/424630

Even if this subject existed before for decades, it is important to revisit the perspectives through all actual different viewpoints. During this presentation, the size of the object is considered, distance is encompassed and time delay subsumed. With this aim, we will approach why teleoperation/presence is part of actual sensitive domains like safe and secure communication, why some solutions can be solved through Virtual Reality, and finally what has to be taken into account for applications!Speaker(s): Jean-GuyVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/411375
