Our 30th workshop features a conversation with Tianyi Wang on “McCarthyism, Media, and Political Repression: Evidence from Hollywood” on January 29, 2025, from 9:30AM – 11:00AM PT. The Hoover Institution Workshop on Using Text as Data in Policy Analysis showcases applications of natural language processing, structured human readings, and machine learning methods to analyze text […]

Synopsis: If not solved, AI models' power and water consumption threaten human society and ecology. AI is expected to consume 4% of the world's electricity by 2026. Water requirements are even more alarming as water is a shared, non-renewable resource. This talk will discuss some ways, such as data center redesign that industry and academia […]

Abstract: Portable electronic devices are ubiquitously rising, but are predominantly powered by batteries that require recharge/replacement to extend operation lifetime. Future devices, especially for energy-constrained applications like continuous biosensing or remote environmental monitoring, require energy-autonomy for seamless long-term operation. Ambient energy harvesting can be a sustainable way of powering these devices, but integrated circuits (IC) […]

This is the annual IEEE SFBA Consumer Technology Society (CTSoc) event providing a summary of the latest and unique tech innovations from the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. This event has proven to be very popular as many people working in related industries do not get to attend CES. CES's focus has […]

Humans make decisions and solve problems using heuristics (“thinking fast”) or abstract approaches such as modeling (“thinking slow”). Artificial intelligence approaches can similarly use either heuristics that are related to correlation and categorization, or use models that are related to causation. Predictive Engineering, which melds engineering modeling with probabilistic thinking, aligns closely with causation and […]

A half-day intensive workshop led by the California Allegory Project to share their design-research methodology advancing Environmental Justice through art. Brought to you by the EJ Working Group, Earthtones, and the Beehive Design Collective.

Nicholas R. Jones (Assistant Professor, Department of Spanish and Portuguese, Yale University) This presentation delves into the depths of Miguel de Cervantes’s portrayal of black Africans and sub-Saharan Africa in Nicholas R. Jones’s latest scholarly work, Cervantine Blackness (Penn State UP, 2024). With Cervantine Blackness, Jones challenges entrenched paradigms and invites a reevaluation of the […]

Synopsis: Multimodal information processing involves utilizing data from diverse sources such as images, videos, and text to improve real-world applications. This presentation will explore how extracting insights from multiple modalities can enhance tasks like summarization, hate speech detection, complaint mining, and medical question summarization. Combining data from videos, images, and texts can create more comprehensive […]

Next Gen Nanomaterial-based Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Shields Abstract: Electromagnetic interference is now a routine concern, as emitted radiation from a device can interfere with the function of nearby systems. The radiation can also be harmful to human health. Thus, shielding regulations exist in industrialized nations for all electronic products. Most shields today are metal-based, and […]
