It is a modeling method to map external inputs to the corresponding outputs with\/without physically analyzing the system between them. The system can be simple enough, e.g. a linear time-invariant system, to be easily identified by a simple mathematical model. However, it can be a more complex system, such as a nonlinear dynamic system, which is highly difficult to understand with mathematical representations.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIn this presentation, energy-efficient digital hardware to understand the wide range of complex systems using different approaches will be presented. As a data-driven approach, several neural network algorithms are selected for the system learning. The focused system is related to vision tasks such as image or video processing. Several design algorithms and analysis to realize low-power neural network accelerators will be discussed. The proposed low-power design methods are not limited to certain tasks, but are based on algorithmic analysis for general applicability. For a model-based approach,\u0026nbsp;the cohesive method of frequency-domain analysis and interpolation will be presented to simplify learning process on the thermal behavior of integrated circuits. Also, a\u0026nbsp;programmable hardware for simulating dynamical systems will be presented. The proposed platform accelerates the computation of solving a wide class of differential equations.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Energy-efficient Digital Hardware Platform for Learning Complex Systems"}],"uid":"28475","created_gmt":"2017-03-03 22:31:02","changed_gmt":"2017-03-07 21:19:23","author":"Daniela Staiculescu","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2017-03-16T11:30:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2017-03-16T13:30:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2017-03-16T13:30:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2017-03-16 15:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2017-03-16 17:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2017-03-16 17:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"434381","name":"ECE Ph.D. Dissertation Defenses"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"},{"id":"1808","name":"graduate students"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
