Optimization algorithms lie at the heart of modern engineering, enabling robust solutions across structures, energy systems, transportation networks and automated design. By framing engineering design ...

Building a chemical plant. Developing an airline route. Modeling the shapes of proteins. Each of these actions requires optimization algorithms – the combination of math and theory translated into ...

Much of our reams of data sit in large databases of unstructured text. Finding insights among emails, text documents, and websites is extremely difficult unless we can search, characterize, and ...

Most computer algorithms today are developed in high-level languages on general-purpose computers. But someday they may be deployed in embedded systems where the development, verification, and ...

Let’s say you have a research topic, and maybe even an angle. You dive in by reading the canonical classics, all of which seem to cite one other, and maybe some of the most recent debates. Now what?

Every time you hit play on a video, chances are you have Al Bovik to thank for its visual quality. Bovik, professor and Provost’s Chair in Engineering in the Department of Electrical, Computer and ...
