Yuxin Wang, a Hartree Postdoctoral Fellow in QuICS, is studying quantum noise with the goal of bridging abstract and idealized theoretical ideas to make quantum machines both powerful and useful.
UMIACS coordinator Elizabeth Hontz is passionate about plants. She looks to share her love of gardening with others through the University of Maryland Extension Master Gardener Program.
Researchers associated with QuICS believe their recently published work could lead to more efficient benchmarking for quantum devices, as well as more efficient ways of representing quantum states on classical hardware.
Ramani Duraiswami is part of a team receiving federal funding for equipment to decode “imagined speech”—the unspoken words and phrases we intentionally form in our minds.
In a Q&A with Roadmap magazine, he relates on why we should stop worrying about autonomous AI systems and start thinking more about building systems that help people.
The award—expected to total about $650,000 over the next five years—supports his work in “descattering,” which involves developing novel ways for computers to “see through” objects and obstructions that scatter light.
