U.S. intelligence agencies take in a tremendous amount of data every single day. Some of the data is conflicting. Other bits are unrelated. Their job is to comb through it all for details that, when added together, create a clear image of what is actually happening. It’s a huge effort that CU ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß researchers are attempting to make easier through artificial intelligence and natural language processing.
Faculty at the ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß are beginning interdisciplinary research that could one day bring lossless power transmission lines, quantum computing and levitating trains closer to reality in everyday life.
In research published in the journal Nature Communications, Anna Broido and Aaron Clauset used computational tools to analyze a huge dataset of more than 900 networks, with examples from the realms of biology, transportation, technology and more.
Assistant Professor Kyri Baker developed and teaches the new Grid Connected Systems class, a new course on buildings and power grids that is so unique, there isn’t even a textbook for it yet.
Researchers at CU ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß are starting work on a new collaborative grant from NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that will improve solar wind modeling.
CU researchers Bob Marshall and Svenja Knappe are collaborating to bring down the cost with CubeSats and tiny sensors previously used to collect measurements of the brain.
CU ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß researchers will fly drones this fall as part of a massive expedition to the Arctic to study climate at the top of the world.
Proud to announce our latest National Academy of Engineering inductees
By developing sensors to optimize inputs for greater crop yields, Mechanical Engineering Associate Professor Gregory Whiting aims to mitigate environmental losses, decrease energy use and improve farm profitability for food, feed and fuel crops, a project funded by ARPA-E.
