SUMMARY:Data-Driven Price-of-Anarchy Estimation in Transportation Networks
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ioannis Paschalidis \nSeminar: CITRIS People and Robots Initiative\, “Design of Robotics and Embedded systems\, Analysis\, and Modeling” Seminars (DREAMS) \nThis event has been postponed. Please check the seminar series schedule for any updates. \nEquilibrium modeling is common in a variety of fields such as game theory\, transportation science\, and systems biology. The inputs for these models\, however\, are often difficult to estimate\, while their outputs\, i.e.\, the equilibria they are meant to describe\, are often directly observable. By combining ideas from inverse optimization with the theory of variational inequalities\, we develop an efficient\, data-driven technique for estimating the parameters of these models from observed equilibria. A distinguishing feature of our approach is that it supports both parametric and nonparametric estimation by leveraging ideas from statistical learning. \nWe apply this general framework to transportation networks. Using real traffic data from the Boston area\, we estimate origin-destination flow demand matrices and the per-road cost (congestion) functions drivers implicitly use for route selection. Given this information\, one can formulate and solve a system-optimum problem to identify socially optimal flows for the transportation network. The ratio of total latency under a user-optimal policy versus a system-optimal policy is the so-called Price-of-Anarchy (POA)\, quantifying the efficiency loss of selfish actions compared to socially optimal ones. We find that POA can be quite substantial\, sometimes exceeding 2\, suggesting that there is scope for control actions to steer the equilibrium to a socially optimal one. We will discuss what some of these actions may be and how to prioritize interventions. \n_______________________________________________________________ \nYannis Paschalidis is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering\, Systems Engineering\, and Biomedical Engineering at Boston University.

SUMMARY:Big Data Mining and Neural Networks
DESCRIPTION:Tearing Down the Deep Learning Performance Wall\nLecture: CITRIS Research Exchange: Big Data: People and Robots Initiative | February 15 | 12-1 p.m. | Sutardja Dai Hall\, 310\, Banatao Auditorium \n  \nSpeaker/Performer: Greg Diamos\, Senior Researcher\, Baidu \nSponsor: CITRIS and the Banatao Institute \n  \n \nJust this year\, deep learning has fueled significant progress in computer vision\, speech recognition\, and natural language processing. We have seen a computer beat the world champion in Go with help from deep learning\, and a single deep learning algorithm learn to recognize two vastly different languages\, English and Mandarin. At Baidu\, we think that this is just the beginning\, and high performance computing is poised to help. \nIt turns out that deep learning is compute limited\, even on the fastest machines that we can build. This talk will provide empirical evidence from our Deep Speech work that application level performance (e.g. recognition accuracy) scales with data and compute\, transforming some hard AI problems into problems of computational scale. \nThis talk will describe the performance characteristics of Baidu’s deep learning workloads in detail\, focusing on the recurrent neural networks used in Deep Speech as a case study. It will cover challenges to further improving performance\, and outline a plan of attack for tearing down the remaining obstacles standing in the way of strong scaling deep learning to the largest machines in the world.\n——–\nGreg Diamos is a senior researcher at Baidu’s Silicon Valley AI Lab (SVAIL). Previously he was on the research team at NVIDIA. Greg holds a PhD from the Georgia Institute of Technology\, where he contributed to the development of the GPU-Ocelot dynamic compiler\, which targeted CPUs and GPUs from the same program representation. His PhD thesis pioneered execution models for heterogeneous processors. \n———\nFree and open to the public. Register online by Monday for a free lunch at UC Berkeley.

SUMMARY:From Resource to Price: The Case of the Italian Electricity Network and Market - Anna Creti\, Université Paris Dauphine
DESCRIPTION:Siebel Energy Institute Seminar Series \nFrom Resource to Price: The Case of the Italian Electricity Network and Market \nAnna Creti\, Université Paris Dauphine \n  \nTuesday\, February 14 at 1:00 PM PT \nBanatao Auditorium\, 310 Sutardja Dai Hall \nUniversity of California\, Berkeley \n  \nLunch is offered. \nLive Broadcast: https://www.youtube.com/citris/live \n  \n  \nAbstract: \nWe empirically investigate the impact of renewable production on congestion using a unique database on the Italian Power Market\, where zonal pricing is in place. We estimate two econometric models: a multinomial logit model\, to assess whether renewables increase the occurrence of congestion\, and a two stage least square (2SLS) model to evaluate the impact of wind and photovoltaics on congestion costs. Our analysis suggests that larger renewable supply in importing regions decreases the probability of congestion compared to the no congestion case\, while the reverse occurs when renewable production is located in an exporting region. The 2SLS estimations reveal that the same mechanisms explain the level of congestion costs. Our results also highlight that the magnitude of the congestion effects\, both in terms of probability and costs\, is very sensitive to the localization of the historical efficient production\, mainly hydro power\, and to the geographical configuration of the transmission network. Finally\, the implications of forecasting and simulating new renewable production\, based on data of wind and solar availability\, will be discussed. \n  \nSpeaker Biography: \nAnna Creti is a Full Professor at the Université Paris Dauphine\, LeDA-CGEMP (Laboratoire d’économie de Dauphine-Centre de Géopolitique de l’Energie et des matières premières) and Director at the Chaire European Electricity Markets.

SUMMARY:Enhancing Human Capability with Intelligent Machine Teammates
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Julie Shah \nSeminar: CITRIS People and Robots Initiative\, “Design of Robotics and Embedded systems\, Analysis\, and Modeling” Seminars (DREAMS) | Monday\, February 13 | 4 – 5 PM | 250 Sutardja Dai Hall | Webcast \nEvery team has top performers — people who excel at working in a team to find the right solutions in complex\, difficult situations. These top performers include nurses who run hospital floors\, emergency response teams\, air traffic controllers\, and factory line supervisors. While they may outperform the most sophisticated optimization and scheduling algorithms\, they cannot often tell us how they do it. Similarly\, even when a machine can do the job better than most of us\, it can’t explain how. In this talk\, we will view results from work investigating effective ways to blend the unique decision-making strengths of humans and machines. We will discuss the development of computational models that enable machines to efficiently infer the mental state of human teammates and thereby collaborate with people in richer\, more flexible ways. Our studies demonstrate statistically significant improvements in people’s performance on military\, healthcare and manufacturing tasks\, when aided by intelligent machine teammates. \n_______________________________________________________________ \nJulie Shah is an Associate Professor in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT and leads the Interactive Robotics Group of the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. In 2014\, Shah was recognized by the National Science Foundation with a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award and by MIT Technology Review on its 35 Innovators Under 35 list. Her work on industrial human-robot collaboration was also in Technology Review’s 2013 list of 10 Breakthrough Technologies. She has received international recognition in the form of best paper awards and nominations from the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction\, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics\, the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society\, the International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling\, and the International Symposium on Robotics. Shah earned degrees in aeronautics and astronautics and in autonomous systems from MIT.

SUMMARY:"What Happens When the Things We Design Wake Up?" with Mickey McManus\, MAYA Design\, CITRIS Research Exchange
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: What Happens When the Things We Design Wake Up?\nSpeaker: Mickey McManus\nDate: December 07\, 2016\, Wednesday\, 12-1pm\nLocation: Banatao Auditorium\, Sutardja Dai Hall\, UC Berkeley\n \nBiograpy: Mickey McManus is a research fellow at Autodesk in the Office of the CTO\, and Principal & Chairman of the board at MAYA Design\, a design consultancy and innovation lab. He’s a pioneer in the fields of pervasive computing\, collaborative innovation\, human-centered design and education. \nAbstract: In Mickey’s current research project\, “Primordial\,” he and his team are exploring the impact on design when three inevitable technology trends converge. Often called the “Internet of Things\,” pervasive computing is a game-changer that’s on a collision course with two complementary trends—digital manufacturing and machine learning. In 2012\, Mickey co-authored one of the essential field guides to the era of pervasive computing in his book\, Trillions. He believes that taken together\, these three trends give us the ability to shift to an entirely new set of design and business paradigms for the first time in history. The way we design for things that begin to “wake up” is uncharted territory. If we don’t take into account our connected future and continue designing for disconnected things\, we will design our way into irrelevance. The challenge designers face is how to surf these trends\, what to do about them\, and identify how designing “things” will change. Those of us that figure it out sooner rather than later\, will have an unfair advantage while others will be reactionary and surprised at each turn of the screw. \nRegister \n  \n \nAbout the CITRIS Research Exchange\nFree and open to the public\, the CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar Series is a weekly dialogue highlighting leading voices on societal-scale research issues.

SUMMARY:Processors for the Data Center and Cloud of the Future
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: David Wentzlaff\, Princeton University \n\nDate: 12/5/2016\, 2:00pm – 3:30pm \n\n\nLocation: 380\, Soda Hall \n\nTitle: Processors for the Data Center and Cloud of the Future \nAbstract: Current-day data centers and IaaS clouds (e.g. Amazon EC2\, MS Azure\, Google GCE) use microprocessors that are very similar to or the same as those used in small servers and desktops. This work rethinks the design of microprocessors specifically for data center use along with how microprocessors are affected by the novel economic models that have been popularized by IaaS clouds. This talk will describe several architectural changes including how a processor can be decomposed into sub-components (e.g. ALU\, Cache\, Fetch Unit) that can be individually rented in IaaS clouds\, how running similar programs can be taken advantage of in the data center\, how architectural features such as the flavor of memory bandwidth (bursty vs. bulk) can be provisioned and sold in the data center\, and novel memory architectures that enable the creation of sub-coherence domains of cache coherence across the data center. \nMore info: http://engineering.berkeley.edu/processors-data-center-and-cloud-future-2016-12-05
