SUMMARY:CHE 598 Seminar: AI To Accelerate Engineering Design and Scientific Discovery
LOCATION:Center for Undergraduate Education (CUE), NE Troy Lane, Pullman, WA 99164
DESCRIPTION:SPEAKER: Dr. Jana Doppa, Professor, WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\n\nBIOGRAPHY:\n\nJana Doppa is the Huie-Rogers Endowed Chair Professor of Computer Science and Berry Distinguished Professor in Engineering at Washington State University. He was elected as an AAAI Senior Member (2023)and was selected for an Early  Career Award in AI by the IJCAI Conference (2021). He received an NSF CAREER Award (2019), a Google Faculty Research Award (2015), and the Outstanding PhD Dissertation Award from Oregon State University (2015). He and his collaborators won five Best Paper Awards from top-tier venues in AI and electronic design automation. He received the WSU Faculty Mid-Career Award (2024); Voiland College of Engineering Anjan Bose Outstanding Researcher Award (2024), Outstanding Junior Faculty in Research Award (2020), and Reid-Miller Teaching Excellence Award (2018).\n\n \n\nABSTRACT:\n\nWe are at the cusp of an AI-driven revolution in engineering and natural sciences to enable many sustainability applications. Some examples include design of high performance and energy-efficient hardware to overcome Moore's law; discovery of high-performing nanoporous materials for absorbing carbon dioxide from air and storing hydrogen gas for fuel; accelerate the design of effective and safe drugs/vaccines at low cost; and cost-effective geologic carbon sequestration to mitigate global warming and climate change. In this talk, I will present research on AI-driven adaptive experimental design algorithms to solve such problems and my outlook on this exciting research agenda.\n\n
