while simultaneously an associate professor of machine learning at the computer science and engineering department of the university of washington and a terraswarm pi carlos guestrin addressed attendees at the 2017 nips conference as apple s director of machine learning prof guestrin spoke about the powerful computer systems and large datasets available to machine learning engineers who join apple winning applause from his audience he also announced that apple is open sourcing software to help application developers use machine learning first developed in his own startup turu which was acquired by apple last summer to see more go to patently apple as well as an article about apple s revelation of more of its self driving technology at the same conference that appears in wired

pi rahul mangharam and team are working on it much attention in the area of autonomous cars is focused in pittsburgh pennsylvania where carnegie mellon university has positioned itself as a leader in this field the university of pennsylvania along with cmu is a key player in mobility21 a five year federally funded 14 million program to investigate transportation technology including autonomous vehicles colleagues at at cmu are experimenting with their own autonomous car while scientists at penn work in a lab driving cars virtually in all types of weather and lighting to test how well the software adapts to the changes it would face in the real world rahul mangharam associate professor of electrical and systems engineering at the university of pennsylvania is leading a team of six researchers in pursuit of what they describe as a driver s license test for self driving cars the test involves a rigorous use of mathematical diagnostics and simulated reality to determine the safety of autonomous vehicles before they ever hit the road all in service of rating robot drivers white boards covered in complex equations shelves full of makeshift toy cars and computer screens displaying video games comprise the environment of the penn lab penn scientists run the autonomous driving software called computer aided design for safe autonomous vehicles through both mathematical diagnostics and the virtual reality test drives on grand theft auto to see when the system fails you can never have 100 percent safety mangharam said you can design a system that would not be at fault intentionally as much as he believes in autonomous technology mangharam is concerned about our society s tendency to neglect regulatory oversight as we embrace a new toy see article at the inquirer

academy announced the participation of the college of engineering at carnegie mellon university in the lorawan academy curriculum yesterday where cmu had developed its own network openchirp an lpwan network connecting sensors is often the most expensive and challenging part of a deployment especially when they are located in remote areas where data needs to travel long distances by implementing battery operated low powered lorawan based devices and the lorawan protocol openchirp demonstrates that it is feasible to scale low powered sensing devices for use across large areas like campuses manufacturing plants or even cities said anthony rowe an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering who leads the openchirp project at cmu at carnegie mellon students are using openchirp to develop iot applications including smart grid demand response air quality sensing and a campus asset tracking system carnegie mellon s work is a prime example of the lorawan based projects that students can develop with lora technology and the lorawan open protocol see market insider posted by terraswarm at 1 30 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook

working on adaptive learning through demonstration initially with the famous towel folding performed by a robot and the robotic knot tying from 2013 this week abbeel and several colleagues announced a new startup with us 7 million in seed funding called embodied intelligence which will enable industrial robot arms to perceive and act like humans instead of just strictly following pre programmed trajectories the new project draws on the groundwork laid by brett a robot that represented a deep reinforcement learning breakthrough for uc berkeley in 2015 the acronym believe it or not stands for berkeley robot for the elimination of tedious tasks right now if you want to set up a robot you program that robot to do what you want it to do which takes a lot of time and a lot of expertise said abeel with our advances in machine learning we can write a piece of software once machine learning code that enables the robot to learn and then when the robot needs to be equipped with a new skill we simply provide new data the new start up plans to make robots more skillful and quicker to learn which could have an enormous impact on manufacturing the goal is to bring the cutting edge research to robotics and manufacturing abbeel says he says the techniques his company is developing will enable robots to do a range of things that are currently too time consuming to be programmed in see

tuesday october 24 2017 caltech professor and terraswarm pi recipient of nih brains grant pasadena now reports on nih grants awarded to 5 caltech faculty for 3 projects aimed at identifying all cell types in the mouse brain understanding how the brain heals itself after disease or injury and understanding the neural circuits of behavior as one of the 5 caltech researchers to receive grants from the national institutes of health s brains research through advancing innovative neurotechnologies brain initiative professor richard murray along with professor michael dickinson will concentrate their research on the nih project a brain circuit program for understanding the sensorimotor basis of behavior professor murray a co principal investigator has collaborated extensively with dickinson on modeling and analyzing the biological systems of insect flight control the collective expertise of these research teams spans the entire nervous system from the sensory periphery to the motor periphery and it includes experts in every experimental technique we require molecular genetics electrophysiology optical imaging biomechanics quantitative behavioral analysis control theory and dynamic network theory says murray we will exploit mathematical approaches control theory and dynamic network theory in particular that are well suited to model feedback and the flow of information

director of dcist at university of pennsylvania and terraswarm pi vijay kumar receives 27m grant from army to develop robot teams the united states army research laboratory arl has awarded penn engineering a five year 27 million grant to develop new methods of creating autonomous intelligent and resilient teams of robots the teams comprised of multiple types of robots and sensors with varying abilities are designed to assist humans in a broad range of operations in dynamically changing harsh and challenging environments these would include search and rescue of hostages information gathering after terrorist attacks or natural disasters as well as humanitarian missions we want to have teams of robots that know how to work together but can figure out how to keep working even if some of their teammates crash or fail if gps signal is unavailable or if cloud services are disrupted said vijay kumar director of the dcist program this means designing networks with loose flexible connections that can change on the fly that way a single event can t bring down the entire network more importantly we want them to learn to perform tasks they may have never performed and work alongside humans that they may never have worked with the award is part of arl s distributed and collaborative intelligent systems and technology dcist collaborative research alliance which penn engineering will lead the technology we re working will better allow humans to respond by projecting their intelligence without directly coming in harm s way kumar said see electronics 360 and georgia
