About Me

My research lies in both theory and application of artificial intelligence (computer vision and machine learning). My work in these areas develops fundamental mathematical methods at the intersection of optimization, geometry, partial differential equations, and statistics.

Recent News

  • Won an ARPA-E GOPHURRS contract as Co-I to develop 3D neural representations to reconstruct 3D from radar signals, specifically signals from quantum sensors. Excited to collaborate with quantum sensors researchers to co-develop artificial intelligence!

  • New paper on a PDE-based explanation of the Edge of Stability in training deep networks accepted to Journal of Machine Learning Research!

  • Organized a workshop at Raytheon Technolgies on Event-Based Sensing, Algorithms, and Processing Hardware across industry (e.g., Raytheon, Intel, Brainchip), governement (e.g., DARPA, AirForce, SpaceForce) and academia (e.g., Georgia Tech, Purdue, UPenn, UIUC, U. Maryland). Excited for the future of neuromorphic computing in advancing AI!

  • New paper on instabilities in training 3D neural models, and how to address them from a PDE perspective. Accepted to NeurIPS 2023! Code is available.

  • Won an IARPA WRIVA contract. Excited to be leading the Raytheon Technologies team as PI across universities (UT Austin, Georgia Tech, UPenn, Stevens) and industry (Unity, BBN, Adaptive Immersion)! This research seeks to advance 3D vision / generative AI using ground level, aerial, and satellite imagery.
