The researchers are part of a team that won the quantum category at the university’s Invention of the Year Awards for developing a new method to count particles of light—known as photons—without destroying them.

Five UMIACS faculty members were interviewed for a podcast series on how AI will impact education, work, culture and creativity.

The associate professor of computer science has been recognized by his alma mater for his strong promise toward long standing contributions to computer science education and research.

Abhinav Shrivastava will use the Summit supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory for a project designed to improve AI-based visual recognition models.

Their invention involves a new method for counting particles of light—photons—without destroying them.

The researchers are using a novel approach called reverse vaccinology, employing powerful bioinformatic tools and reverse pharmacology practices to better understand the genetic makeup of parasites that cause malaria.

Their technology, called Binoculars, can detect text generated by large language models at an almost 90% success rate.

UMIACS director Mihai Pop recently spoke at Johns Hopkins University, where he received his Ph.D. in 2000.

The project will provide additional space for computing hardware and will offer better options to ensure that the data center’s power grid and cooling systems can handle any increased workload.

For UMIACS, the Iribe Center has been a boon for the seamless flow of bold ideas and new knowledge across multiple academic disciplines.
