This talk by Zhengming Ding, a graduate student at Northeastern University, outlines a proposal to build a large-scale face recognizer capable of fighting off the data imbalance difficulty that existing machine learning approaches experience in mimicking human visual intelligence. To seek a more effective general classifier, we develop a novel generative model attempting to synthesize meaningful data for one-shot classes by adapting the data variances from other normal classes.
The Hariri Institute is excited to host student poster sessions and presentations for five courses this semester: Data Mechanics, Mobile App Development, Machine Learning, Data Science and Spark! Ventures.

Ayse Coskun, an Associate Professor in the College of Engineering and former Hariri Institute Junior Faculty Fellow, was awarded with the 2017 Ernest S. Kuh Early Career Award by the Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
This talk by Andrei Barbu, a research scientist at MIT, will discuss a program to unify research around a number of vision-language problems into a single mathematical framework culminating in a robotic platform that is able to follow natural language commands, store knowledge, and answer questions.
This talk by Guorong Li, an associate professor at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, will outline recent research in media analysis including learning label-specific features for multi-label classification, learning common space for cross-modal retrieval and car tracking in UAV video.
Hariri Institute Faculty Fellows Jacob Groshek, Dino Christenson and Neha Gondal lead panel on establishing an online presence as a scholar and researcher to increase the visibility of research and publications.
Jacob Bor, Junior Faculty Fellow at the Hariri Institute and Hariri Research Award recipient, shows how voting patterns correlated with the nation’s growing geographic health divides in his recent publication in the American Journal of Public Health.
12:45 pm to 2:00 pm on Monday, October 2, 2017 765 Commonwealth Avenue, Room 410 This talk, a continuation of one held in July and part of an ongoing collaboration with the Hariri Institute of Computing, is aimed at a non-technological academic audience that is interested in understanding the concept of data encryption, with its […]
The Boston University Institute for Health System Innovation & Policy (IHSIP) and the Questrom School of Business present a day of discussion on the future of health and health care with support from IBM Watson Health. The Hariri Institute is excited to support the fall conference through the join initiative with IHSIP, the Digital Health Initiative.
