The machine-learning algorithm identified a compound that kills Acinetobacter baumannii, a bacterium that lurks in many hospital settings.

The system they developed eliminates a source of bias in simulations, leading to improved algorithms that can boost the performance of applications.

Award is given each year by the School of Engineering to an outstanding educator up for promotion to associate professor without tenure.

New LiGO technique accelerates training of large machine-learning models, reducing the monetary and environmental cost of developing AI applications.

In the award announcement, SIAM noted that Uhler is being honored for her “fundamental contributions at the interface of statistics, machine learning, and biology”.

With the right building blocks, machine-learning models can more accurately perform tasks like fraud detection or spam filtering.

The prize is the top honor within the field of communications technology.

Seven researchers, along with 14 additional MIT alumni, are honored for significant contributions to engineering research, practice, and education.

Department of EECS Assistant Professors Connor Coley and Dylan Hadfield-Menell have been named to the inaugural cohort of AI2050 Early Career Fellows by Schmidt Futures, a philanthropic initiative from Eric and Wendy Schmidt aimed at helping to solve hard problems in AI.

Six distinguished scientists with ties to MIT were recognized “for significant contributions in areas including cybersecurity, human-computer interaction, mobile computing, and recommender systems among many other areas.”
