Event details

Date 13.12.2019
Hour 13:1514:15
Speaker Marilyn Claire Wolf is the new chair of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and began her new position on Sept. 1, 2019. Previously, Prof. Wolf was the Rhesa “Ray” S. Farmer Distinguished Chair of Embedded Computing Systems and Georgia Research Alliance Eminent Scholar at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Before joining Georgia Tech, she was a faculty member at Princeton University (1989-2007) and also worked at AT&T Bell Laboratories (1984-89). Wolf earned bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford University and is a co-founder of Verificon Corporation in 2003, which designs smart camera systems. She has developed a number of techniques for embedded computing, and her research areas have included embedded systems, video and computer vision, and VLSI systems. She received the ASEE/CSE and HP Frederick E. Terman Award in 2003, the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society Education Award in 2006, and the IEEE Computer Society Harry H. Goode Memorial Award in 2019. She is a Fellow of the IEEE and ACM, as well as an IEEE Computer Society Golden Core member. She has been elected to Phi Beta Kappa and Tau Beta Pi.

Abstract: Advances in 3D VLSI are created a new generation of smart cameras for embedded computer vision. Stacked sensors include multiple layers for sensing, conversion, memory, and computing. Further advances in sensors have made possible multi-band sensors possible that integrate visible, infrared, and LIDAR. The rapid advances in neural networks for computer vision need to be adapted harness the full capabilities of stacked sensors. Closed-loop computer vision systems require low latency and high confidence in the results. This talk will review the CAMEL project by Profs. Mukhopodhyay and Wolf. After introducing stacked sensor architectures, the talk will discuss multi-band computer vision in the presence of challenging environments.
