Systems Research Towards Solving Societal Problems February 27, 2023 Abstract: Much of systems and networking research focusses on improving performance, often defined in terms of throughput, latency, and robustness. Our lab have been focusing on systems research that also has societal impact. I will describe two such research threads: one on sustainable NLP and the […]
MaRz: Machine Learning on the Fly January 9, 2023 Abstract: This research concerns machine learning on the fly, for problems where learning data changes continually, or where waiting for the system to learn is impractical. The principle behind MaRz (Machine Learning in Real Time by Fuzzification) is a fuzzy interpretation of data. This is […]
