DESCRIPTION:Advancing Computer Vision in the Era of Vision Foundation Mode
 ls\n\n \n\nAbstract:\n\nOver the past several decades\, computer vision ha
 s witnessed remarkable progress across a broad range of tasks. Recently\, 
 the field has entered a new era with the emergence of large-scale Vision F
 oundation Models (VFMs). By learning general-purpose visual representation
 s from massive data\, VFMs offer new opportunities to address several long
 -standing challenges in computer vision\, including generalization\, open-
 vocabulary understanding\, and the development of unified models. In this 
 talk\, we will explore the evolving role of VFMs in vision\, spanning seve
 ral paradigms: leveraging frozen VFMs\, adapting VFMs\, developing domain-
 specific VFMs\, and\, ultimately\, using VFMs as agents. Together\, these 
 approaches point toward a broader shift in how we build\, adapt\, and depl
 oy computer vision systems.\n\n \n\nBio:\n\nDr. Xiaoming Liu is Jacqueline
  Maria Hagan Distinguished Professor at the Department of Computer Science
  of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He was MSU Foundation Pro
 fessor\, and Anil and Nandita Jain Endowed Professor at the Department of 
 Computer Science and Engineering of Michigan State University (MSU). He re
 ceived Ph.D. degree from Carnegie Mellon University in 2004. Before joinin
 g MSU in 2012 he was a research scientist at General Electric (GE) Global 
 Research. He works on computer vision\, machine learning\, and biometrics 
 especially on face related analysis and 3D vision. He is an Associate Edit
 or of IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence. He h
 as authored more than 200 scientific publications\, and has filed 35 U.S. 
 patents. His work has been cited over 35000 times according to Google Scho
 lar\, with an H-index of 90. He is a fellow of IEEE and IAPR.  More inform

DESCRIPTION:Aditya Thorat\, International Centre for Theoretical Sciences\
 , Bengaluru\n\nTitle: Finitely dependent processes on Z^d subshifts.\n\nAb
 stract: Finitely dependent processes are a generalisation of independent p
 rocesses which require only that restrictions of the process to sufficient
 ly separated subsets of Z^d are independent. Schramm\, Holroyd and Wilson 
 showed that there are no stationary finitely dependent processes on proper
  3-colorings of Z^d for d>1. But Holroyd and Liggett proved that there are
  stationary finitely dependent processes on proper 4-colorings of Z^d for 
 any d. Proper q-colorings of Z^d are examples of\nso-called subshifts. We 
 will discuss some results addressing the following question: When do subsh
 ifts support finitely dependent processes? We will see how cocycles (a.k.a
 . height functions) on subshifts can be used to answer this question in ce
 rtain classes of subshifts\, including tiling spaces by a collection of re
 ctangles in plane. \n\nThis is joint work with Nishant Chandgotia\, Jan Gr
 ebík\, and Filip Kučerák.

DESCRIPTION:Accessible and Immersive Realities: Multimodal Pathways to an 
 Inclusive Future\n\n \n\nAbstract:\n\nImmersive technologies like AR\, VR\
 , and haptics offer immense potential for accessibility\, yet realizing th
 is requires addressing the digital divide these emerging platforms can cre
 ate. At the AIR (Accessible and Immersive Realities) Lab\, we define Immer
 sive Accessibility as: making immersive systems natively usable for people
  with diverse abilities and leveraging these same technologies to build no
 vel assistive applications. In this talk\, I discuss our research across f
 ive several distinct scopes: Accessible VR\, translating spatial audio via
  visual mini-maps and head-mounted haptics\; Expressive and Immersive Capt
 ions\, utilizing wrist-worn vibrations and expressive typography to convey
  emotional prosody\; Accessible Authentication\, leveraging the private na
 ture of touch for secure\, non-visual interactions\; Immersive and Accessi
 ble Training\, integrating Generative AI with VR for vocational social ski
 ll practice \; and Accessible Data Visualization\, using electrotactile in
 terfaces to help users "feel" complex graphical data. Together\, these eff
 orts contribute to a future where technology is inclusive\, empowering\, a
 nd adapt to human diversity.\n\n \n\nBio:\n\nRoshan Peiris is an Assistant
  Professor at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) and Director of 
 the Accessible and Immersive Realities (AIR) Lab. He is affiliated with RI
 T’s Center for Accessibility and Inclusion Research (CAIR) and Frameless
  XR Labs at MAGIC Spell Studios. His research\, centered around Immersive 
 Accessibility\, investigates the use of immersive technologies like AR\, V
 R\, and haptics for accessibility applications. Previously\, Roshan was a 
 Project Senior Assistant Professor at Keio University and a Postdoctoral R
 esearch Fellow at the Augmented Human Lab at the Singapore University of T
 echnology and Design. He holds a Ph.D. in Human-Computer Interaction from 
 the National University of Singapore and a B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering
  from the University of Moratuwa.

DESCRIPTION:Join us to hear from Michael Ruggiero about his research here 
 at URochester!\n\n \n\nAbstract: Terahertz (THz) vibrational spectroscopy\
 , occurring at frequencies of 0.1 – 10 THz or 3 – 330 cm-1\, provides 
 direct access to low-frequency phonons that govern collective molecular mo
 tions in crystalline materials. Unlike traditional mid-IR methods (i.e\, F
 TIR) that most often probe intramolecular motions\, terahertz lattice dyna
 mics encode information about intermolecular forces that can provide insig
 ht into various properties ranging from crystal packing\, mechanical respo
 nse\, and structural changes. These vibrations are highly-excited at ambie
 nt conditions\, and therefore they are responsible for a host of dynamic p
 roperties such as thermal expansion and solid-state reactivity. \n\n \n\nB
 y combining experimental terahertz time-domain and low-frequency Raman spe
 ctroscopy with solid-state density functional theory\, it is possible to n
 ot only assign complex terahertz spectra with confidence\, but also to con
 nect individual phonon modes to specific stimuli-responsive phenomena. Thi
 s work highlights how these capabilities can be used to understand\, and u
 ltimately control\, the behavior of molecular solids. collective phonons n
 ot only report on reactivity but may actively influence reaction pathways\
 , providing new opportunities to predict\, understand\, and eventually man
 ipulate chemistry in the solid state. \n \n\nHost: Ignacio Franco | ignaci

DESCRIPTION:As artificial intelligence grows more capable\, a familiar anx
 iety resurfaces: will humans become unnecessary? This talk argues for a di
 fferent answer — one in which the goal is not to compete with AI but to 
 build the interfaces through which humans and AI collaborate at their mutu
 al best. Within the decade\, digital overlays driven by contextual AI will
  begin reshaping how we perceive and navigate the world — enhancing surg
 ical precision\, transforming how students learn\, and redefining what it 
 means to interact with a computer. The question is not whether this transi
 tion will happen\, but who will design it and toward what ends. The Univer
 sity of Rochester's Center for Extended Reality (CXR) brings together facu
 lty across engineering\, medicine\, neuroscience\, education\, and the hum
 anities to pursue that design challenge as a shared mission. This talk pre
 sents CXR's transdisciplinary framework — spanning hardware innovation i
 n optics and display\, human-computer interface research\, applied clinica
 l development\, and ethical governance — and explains why Rochester's ex
 isting strengths make it a natural hub for this work. The audience will he
 ar how each school and division on campus connects to this agenda\, and ho
 w CXR aims to advance Rochester's core missions of education\, research\, 
 and health through a coherent\, collaborative vision of what human-AI inte
 raction can and should become.
