This Friday, November 6th, Mahesh Karra, Assistant Professor of Global Development Policy at the Frederick S. Pardee School and Hariri Institute Junior Faculty Fellow, will be presenting on managing bibliography data and research materials with Zotero in Hariri Institute’s new series, “Did You Know You Could…?” To learn more about the series and this event, […]
A Meet and Learn Series led by the Graduate Student Fellows The “Did you know you could…?” series provides a venue in which people can quickly get exposed to practical topics either enabling or enabled by computing and data science. Topics they might not even have realized they wanted to know! And they can meet other similarly […]

On September 30th, Boston University’s Office of Research hosted an event spotlighting the Hariri Institute for Computing and Researchers focusing on Cloud computing, secure and private computation, and artificial intelligence (AI) that are shaping the landscape around computational and data-driven research. The Come Together, Right Now: Convergence & Collaboration Around Cloud Computing, Data Security, and AI event, gave the Boston […]
Red Hat Research Days US 2020 are a series of virtual conversations about research and innovations in open source. An initiative organized by Red Hat, and open to researchers, developers, students, and others (with no-cost registration), Research Days provide researchers, technologists, and students an opportunity to collectively discuss research developments that have the potential to […]
BU Security Group Speaker: Shlomi Hod, PhD Student, Computer Science, Boston University When: Wednesday, July 1, 2020 Time: 11:00am-12:00pm ZOOM Info: https://bostonu.zoom.us/j/222968851?pwd=RTBhSnVnbDhqbnFrMWRSeVU1alYyUT09 Abstract: The learned weights of a neural network are often considered devoid of scrutable internal structure. To discern structure in these weights, we introduce a measurable notion of modularity for multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs), and investigate the […]
This past March, the Honda Research Institute led an information session covering their special track offered as part of the Hariri Institute’s Research Incubation Awards. The talk was given to a full seminar room at the Hariri Institute for Computing as BU faculty members were given some insights into their proposal ideas. Explicitly, in their […]
