Abstract Brain health is one of the key societal challenges for the 21st century, and much progress has been made in understanding and treating brain health conditions, aided by growing use of neuroimaging. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) technologies have revolutionised many domains, including healthcare. However, there is still a translational gap between […]

Abstract In this talk, we will introduce SubLoRA, a rank determination method for Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) based on submodular function maximisation. In contrast to prior approaches, such as AdaLoRA, that rely on first-order (linearised) approximations of the loss function, SubLoRA utilises second-order information to capture the potentially complex loss landscape by incorporating the Hessian matrix. […]

Abstract Colloidal semiconductor quantum dot nanocrystals (QD NCs) have been shown to be promising materials for electronic and optoelectronic device applications because of their unique size dependent properties and solution processability. We develop a systematic methods to engineer the surface chemistry of quantum dot nanocrystals to control the charge carrier statistics as well as optical […]

*After the seminar, you are also welcome to attend in-person discussions with the speakers from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm in Room 601J. Abstract Solid-state lasers mean laser systems using solid-state materials as the gain medium, primarily including rod, slab, disc, fiber, and semiconductor lasers. These methods offer advantages such as high output power, excellent […]

Abstract Due to the evident climate change and environmental pressures the future power/energy systems will have to operate, sooner rather than later, in a net-zero environment. This will manifest in a mix of wide range of electricity generation, storage and demand technologies (increasingly power electronics interfaced); blurred boundaries between transmission and distribution system; significantly higher […]

Abstract The ongoing energy transition is challenging centralised power system paradigms by rapidly integrating distributed energy resources (DERs), which introduce significant supply-demand variability. This variability complicates grid management and necessitates enhanced coordination among operators. Centralised data aggregation further exacerbates privacy risks and strains the communication infrastructure as the proliferation of controllable devices increases. To address […]

Abstract As quantum technologies redefine the landscape of modern electronics and communication networks, the efficient characterisation and monitoring of complex quantum systems have become essential. In this talk, I will present AI-driven methods to address the challenges in quantum state learning and property characterisation. First, I will introduce the Generative Query Network for Quantum (GQNQ), […]
