Stochastic Optimization Methods for Large-Scale Machine Learning
Many machine learning problems are formulated as non-convex optimization problems. For example, almost all the optimization problems in deep neural networks are non-convex. Read more
Adjoint based optimization of vertical axis wind turbines
Recently vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have been more installed in urban areas than before. They are known to perform better in urban regions compared to horizontal axis wind turbines as they do not require alignment to the oncoming flow. Read more
Wide-band antenna design based on machine learning
With the rapid development of modern wireless communication and radar technologies, as one of the most important components of the radio frequency front end, the structure and design of antennas and arrays are becoming more and more complex, which brings increasing computational burdens. Read more
