Mizzou Engineers Take Transfer Learning Step Further in New Paper
Imagine having a self-driving car that is already trained to recognize road markings, street signs and other vehicles. Could you take what that car knows and tweak it so the vehicle could navigate the ocean, too?
Meet Hongbin ‘Bill’ Ma
Imagine having a two-sided lunchbox that could keep your soda cool all day while also heating a can of soup at lunch. Or a temperature-controlled swimming pool that allowed you to swim in November. What about a high-tech beach umbrella that could keep you 15 degrees cooler than the air around it? Sound like a…
Nassar awarded NSF CAREER grant to explore mathematics of deployable structures
Assistant Professor Hussein Nassar recently received the prestigious National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) grant for his work on identifying unifying mathematical models that can explain the behavior of deployable structures. Research into these morphing metamaterials could aid in the designs of airbags, clothing, and even solar panels for space travel.
Engineering Professor’s Company One of Three Startups Recognized at Mizzou Event
Mizzou Engineering faculty were recognized last month for taking their research ideas to market. Professor Yi Shang’s company, TigerAware, was among just three from across campus recognized for becoming startups and making first sales of products using MU technologies. The Office of Research and Economic Development hosted “Taking Your ideas to Market” on April 29. The celebration…
Mizzou Engineers Develop Algorithms to Organize Streaming Data
Mizzou Engineers have written new algorithms to better organize, or “cluster,” streaming data. The work has the potential to help businesses better use information coming in constantly or medical providers best respond to ongoing health changes. The goal of clustering is to find meaningful structure within a set of data. But the rise of continuous…
Using AI to Generate Holograms in Everyday Settings
Imagine being able to see a hologram of the person you’re talking to on your cell phone. Sound futuristic? Mizzou Engineers are finding ways to someday make that a reality. A research team is…
Mizzou Engineer Receives IEEE IMS Graduate Fellowship
Omiya Hassan was one of three recipients from around the globe to receive a Graduate Fellowship Award from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Instrumentation & Measurement Society (IMS).
Improving health by improving water filtration
A research team led by Mizzou Engineers recently published an article on how to potentially remove arsenic from ground water more efficiently with less expense for household use.
Computer Science Students Create RIDSI Website to Help Track Traffic
State officials and emergency workers in Missouri will have an easier way to view traffic data in the future, thanks to a Mizzou Engineering collaboration. For their senior capstone project, computer science students created a website and mobile app that provide a central source for real-time and historical transportation information.
Machines Can Explain Decisions Through Images, Researchers Find
Machines have the ability to tell humans why they made a decision based on how they prioritize features of what they see. That’s the take-away from a paper Mizzou Engineers have had accepted to an international conference this summer.
