Prof. Lujie Karen Chen wins wins 5-year NSF Career award Focus: undergraduate data science & data literacy education

UMBC Information Systems Professor Lujie Karen Chen recently won an NSF CAREER award that puts students at the center of learning analytics—not just as subjects who supply data, but also as the designers of analytical tools and users of the insights they provide. Her five-year project, Teaching to Empower with Learning Analytics for College Students by College Students, will explore an innovative approach to empower students to become productive users and creators of learning analytics, tools that use educational data to enhance learning.

Chen’s Lab for Informatics for Human Flourishing is dedicated to using data to improve people’s lives. Education is a key pathway to advance human flourishing, Chen says, and she looks forward to improving student learning experiences and outcomes through her CAREER award project.

UMBC Professor Houbing Song will give an online distinguished lecture on Networked Systems and Security Research in the Age of AI/Machine Learning at 9:00am ET on Wednesday, 17 July 2024, sponsored by the IEEE Systems Council. Register here. 

Networked systems have created new opportunities with major societal implications. At the same time, security has emerged as one of the most important socio-technical challenges confronting society. AI/machine learning (ML) techniques are expected to enable networked systems and enhance security. In this talk, I will present my recent research on networked systems and security in the age of AI/ML. First, I will introduce my ML-enabled Counter Unmanned Aircraft System(s) (C-UAS) technology that detects and safely neutralizes rogue drones without destroying them or causing them to crash. This research has been featured by 100+ news media outlets. Next I will present my follow-up research on real-time ML for quickest event (threat/intrusion/vulnerability) detection. Then I will introduce my research on data-efficient ML, particularly distant domain transfer learning.

Lean for Scientists and Engineers


Meets twice weekly, 1-3pm ET, July 9 – August 21, 2024
in-person at UMBC and online


UMBC’s AI & Theory-Oriented Molecular Science Lab (ATOMS) will teach a free, non-credit class, “Lean for Scientists and Engineers”, this summer. Lean 4 is a new programming language whose type system enables it to describe and check the logic of advanced math proofs. It makes it easier to write correct and maintainable code.

By writing software in Lean and writing proofs about those functions, we can be confidant that our code is correct. Our vision is to enable a new class of scientific computing software whose functions are interwoven with a library of formally-verified scientific derivations. All are welcome! This course is designed for non-mathematicians. 

Topics include logic and proofs for scientists and engineers, functional programming in Lean 4, and provably-correct programs for scientific computing. Prerequisites are Calculus II, introductory physics and introductory chemistry.

Experimenting with Organizational Design in the Age of AI

Erwin Godoy, Freddie Mac
12-1pm ET, June 27, 2024

How AI will transform organizations is still to be determined. No doubt, AI will require new skill sets and perhaps new types of organization. The normal response by mature organizations is to "slap" AI into the existing business model that made them successful in the past. This is a flawed response filled with pitfalls. Organizations need to be ready to experiment with new skills, organizational designs, and business models to win in the age of AI.

UMBC Professor Sanjay Purushotham is one of the organizers of MILETS'24, the 10th Mining and Learning from Time Series workshop. It will be held on August 25, 2024 in conjunction with KDD'24, the 30th ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining. Submitted papers are due by June 14, 2024.

Time series data is ubiquitous across diverse domains, and modern time series pose significant challenges to existing techniques due to their size, complexity, and atypical properties. MILETS'24 will focus on synergizing research in time series analysis and mining, moving from classical methods to LLMs, discussing new and open problems, and emphasizing applications to high-impact domains.

Topics covered include forecasting, pattern mining, multivariate and structured time series, anomaly detection, interpretation, causal inference, fairness, federated learning, hardware acceleration, streaming data, privacy, benchmarking, and applications across various fields.

May 30

In the UMBC Training Centers AI Lunchbox session this week, Tom Cain will give an overview of OpenAI's latest model, GPT-4o, 12-1pm ET, Thursday May 30, 2024 via Zoom.

Earlier this month, OpenAI released the latest version of their model, GPT-4o. The "o" in its name stands for "omni" to highlight its enhanced capabilities to process and respond to audio content, function as a chat assistant, and other new features. In addition to being more capable, it is also free to use interactively and cheaper to use via its API. 

Tom will demonstrate some of the new possibilities that GTP-4o opens up for interacting with AI tools in this session, focusing on features that are free for any user.

Register for this Lunchbox Series meeting on their site or through Meetup. If you'd like to see another one of Tom's session demonstrating ChatGPT and other LLMs, check out the earlier Lunchbox sessions on their YouTube channel.
