There can be no vague cases of consciousness. This makes trouble for many of the leading theories of consciousness. In this talk, I ...
Neural networks have revolutionize many tasks in computer vision and interpretation, and will have significant rolein earth science tasks such as inversion, geological interpretation, prediction of earth parameters and water discovery.The talk will be divided into two parts. In the first part we will show that deep neural networks can be interpreted ...
Quantum devices and materials have exceptional promise for energy, computation, communication, and sensing. To realize this potential, scientists and engineers must find the right physical systems. Emergent phenomena in quantum systems often exhibit magnetic signatures. Superconducting QUantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) can map superfluid density and quantum vortices to reveal unconventional ...
We know that planets are born in the protoplanetary disks that surround stars when they are young. How these disks evolve into planetary systems is a fundamental question in Astronomy. Observations have revealed remarkable structures in disks that may indicate the presence of newly born planets. This talk will review ...
