SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange – Margaret Burnett on Inclusive Design
DESCRIPTION:A CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar with speaker Margaret Burnett  \nTALK TITLE: “Doing Inclusive Design: From GenderMag to InclusiveMag” \nSPEAKER: Margaret Burnett\, Professor School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, Oregon State University  \nRegister to attend > \n \nBIO: Margaret Burnett is a Distinguished Professor at Oregon State University. She began her career in the industry\, where she was the first woman software developer ever hired at Procter & Gamble Ivorydale. A few degrees later\, she joined academia. She co-founded the area of end-user software engineering\, which aims to enable computer users not trained in programming to improve their own software\, and co-leads the team that created GenderMag (gendermag.org)\, a software inspection process that uncovers user-facing gender biases in technology environments. Together with her collaborators and students\, she has contributed some of the seminal work in both of those areas\, and also in explaining AI to ordinary end users. Burnett is an ACM Fellow\, a member of the ACM CHI Academy\, and an emeritus Chair of the NCWIT Academic Alliance. \nABSTRACT: How can technology professionals assess whether their technology supports diverse users? And if they find problems\, how can they fix them? Although there are empirical processes that can be used to find “inclusivity bugs” piecemeal\, what is also needed is a systematic method to assess technology’s support for diverse populations. To fill this gap\, we developed GenderMag\, a method for finding and fixing “gender inclusivity bugs” — gender biases in technology interfaces and workflows. We then introduced InclusiveMag\, which can be used to generate systematic inclusiveness methods for other dimensions of diversity. In this talk\, we explain how GenderMag works\, present the latest GenderMag results\, and then introduce InclusiveMag and our early experiences with it. We conclude with actionable steps for industry and university professionals. \nABOUT THE SERIES: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry\, and civic leaders. Free and open to the public\, this series highlights leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Each seminar takes place on Wednesdays from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm PT.

SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange – Carolynn Patten on Digital Phenotypes of Normal and Pathological Human Gait
DESCRIPTION:A CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar with speaker Carolynn Patten  \nTALK TITLE: Digital Phenotypes of Normal and Pathological Human Gait \nSPEAKER: Dr. Carolynn Patten\, Director and Professor\, Biomechanics\, Rehabilitation\, and Integrative Neuroscience\, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation\, UC Davis \nRegister to attend > \nBIO: Dr. Patten is a neuroscientist and physical therapist who specializes in the assessment and treatment of motor dysfunction associated with aging and adult neuropathologies\, such as stroke. She directs the UC Davis Biomechanics\, Rehabilitation\, and Integrative Neuroscience (BRaIN) Lab and Co-Directs the UC Davis Center for Neuroengineering and Medicine.\nDr. Patten’s research focuses on understanding the neural basis of human movement\, investigating human motor control and adaptation from a perspective of neuromechanics. Using concurrent behavioral and neurophysiological methods\, her laboratory has developed techniques sensitive to motor impairment. Current work to be discussed in this CITRIS seminar uses gait as an assay of brain health to develop a predictive biomarker of subclinical/emerging pathology.\nDr. Patten’s research is supported by the NIH (NIBIB\, NIA\, NINDS)\, NSF\, Dept. of Veterans Affairs (Rehabilitation R&D)\, and Healthy Aging in a Digital World\, a UC Davis Big Idea. \nABSTRACT: Nearly half the U.S. population (~47%) is affected by at least one chronic condition affecting health\, independent mobility\, and quality of life. Early detection and management of these conditions would improve quality of life and forestall disabling sequelae. However\, there is a need for efficient screening tools to enable the detection of emerging and sub-clinical pathologies among individuals in our rapidly aging population.\nOne of the most common metrics used to quantify mobility is self-selected walking speed. Robust associations with overall physical functioning and systemic health have inspired reference to walking speed as the “sixth vital sign.” While its relevance has been established and it is straightforward to measure\, gait speed is influenced by myriad factors\, thus differences and simple changes in gait speed offer only a limited scope of information regarding either the source of mobility limitations or their potential for remediation.\nRecent work from our lab has led to the development of the Assessment of Bilateral Locomotor Efficacy (ABLE) an instrument that assesses key functions of human bipedal locomotion. Unlike walking speed\, the ABLE reveals non-overlapping clusters of performance\, indicating its capacity to discriminate between critical levels of physical functioning. Critically\, the ABLE detects mobility impairment in ostensibly healthy adults with no observable gait impairment and normal walking speed. Verified with their health data\, this observation reveals the ABLE’s potential to detect sub-clinical\, or emerging\, gait pathology in so-called normal\, healthy individuals. Motivated by our goal of making the ABLE accessible to both clinical and community settings\, our current work centers around the use of tools to acquire valid gait data with portable technologies\, independent from an instrumented research lab\, and efficient methods to analyze high-dimensional data sets. Used as a screening procedure\, the ABLE could provide early detection of medical needs\, facilitate preventative care\, and inform management of chronic health conditions.\n \nABOUT THE SERIES: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry\, and civic leaders. Free and open to the public\, this series highlights leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Each seminar takes place on Wednesdays from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm PT.

SUMMARY:DREAMS/CPAR Seminar - Matthew Walter
DESCRIPTION:CITRIS People and Robots hosts a weekly seminar series every Monday afternoon jointly with UC Berkeley’s “Design of Robotics and Embedded systems\, Analysis\, and Modeling” Seminars (DREAMS). \nSPEAKER: Matthew Walter \nZOOM: https://berkeley.zoom.us/j/97238125697 \n \nBIO: Matthew Walker is an assistant professor and director of the Robot Intelligence through Perception Laboratory (RIPL) at the Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago (TTI-Chicago)\, a philanthropically endowed academic computer science institute located on the University of Chicago campus. Walker also holds a part-time faculty appointment in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Chicago. \nPrior to joining TTI-Chicago\, Walker was a research scientist in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)\, where he worked with Seth Teller. He received his PhD from the Joint Program between MIT and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution\, under the supervision of John Leonard. \nWalker’s thesis considered the problem of scaling robotic mapping and localization to larger unknown environments. I studied feature-based algorithms for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) whereby a robot builds a map of the world while concurrently estimating its position in the map. His thesis work proposed a sparse information filter algorithm that is scalable and also preserves estimate consistency. The approach maintains a Gaussian probability distribution over the robot and map states\, and takes advantage of insights into the natural structure of this model for SLAM. The Exactly Sparse Extended Information Filter (ESEIF) exploits a sparse parametrization of this distribution to reduce the computational and memory costs from quadratic to linear in the map’s size. In addition to the gains in efficiency\, a primary contribution of the algorithm is its ability to achieve sparsity in a principled\, yet simple way that preserves consistency. For more information\, please see the IJRR paper or his thesis. \n\nABOUT THE SERIES: CITRIS People and Robots hosts a weekly seminar series every Monday afternoon jointly with UC Berkeley’s “Design of Robotics and Embedded systems\, Analysis\, and Modeling” Seminars (DREAMS).

SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange – Ahmed Sabbir Arif on Human Computer Interaction
DESCRIPTION:A CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar with speaker Dr. Ahmed Sabbir Arif  \nTALK TITLE: “What if Computers Could Read Our Lips? Silent Speech as an Active Mode of Interaction with Computer Systems” \nSPEAKER: Dr. Ahmed Sabbir Arif\, Assistant Professor Computer Science and Engineering\, UC Merced \nRegister to attend > \n \nBIO: Dr. Ahmed Sabbir Arif leads the Human-Computer Interaction Group at the University of California\, Merced. His research makes computer systems accessible to a wider range of users by developing intuitive and effective input and interaction techniques. A major thread of his work focuses on smarter solutions for text entry. His other interests include mobile interaction\, accessibility\, and applied machine learning. He has received a Hellman Fellowship\, three Michael A. J. Sweeney Awards\, and a CHISIG Gitte Lindgaard Award for his research activities. Before joining UC Merced\, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Ryerson University and an NSERC ENGAGE Fellow at York University. He received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from York University. He also holds an M.Sc. from Lakehead University and a B.Sc. from Trent University\, both in Computer Science. \nABSTRACT: Silent speech that converts lip movements into text can mitigate many challenges of speech and traditional input methods. Yet\, existing silent speech recognition models are error-prone or use impractical extremal devices or implants. In this talk\, I will present the findings of three projects involving silent speech input. First\, a social study established silent speech as an acceptable and desired mode of interaction. Second\, two empirical studies revealed that users are more tolerant of errors in silent speech and tend to speak slowly when interacting with it. Third\, a new end-to-end deep neural network that can automatically segment lip sequence videos and classify them into text. In an evaluation\, the model reduced the word error rate by 57% compared to the state-of-the-arts without compromising the overall computation time. \nABOUT THE SERIES: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry\, and civic leaders. Free and open to the public\, this series highlights leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Each seminar takes place on Wednesdays from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm PT.

SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange – Laurel Larsen on Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:A CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar with speaker Laurel Larsen  \nTALK TITLE: “The drought cascade: Linking changes in climate extremes to changes in watershed function” \nSPEAKER: Laurel Larsen\, Associate Professor and Delta Lead Scientist\, UC Berkeley and Delta Stewardship Council \nRegister to attend > \n \nBio: I grew up in Florida\, where I spent my childhood playing outdoors\, mostly around water\, reading\, and solving puzzles. I never grew out of those things\, and now they constitute a major part of my job. The puzzles that motivate me are: What makes landscapes evolve distinct patterns? How can we restore or manage landscapes to optimize particular functions? How do physical-biological interactions control large-scale geomorphology and biogeochemical processing? Water flows as a theme through this research as one of the components of the environment most critical to life and\, indeed\, perhaps the single most dominant factor sculpting the geography of Earth’s natural and human landscapes. Water is also one of the features of the physical environment most sensitive to global climate change and human management. In my research\, I try to tease apart the direct and indirect ways in which hydrologic changes impact ecosystems\, and\, conversely\, how those ecological changes impact hydrology. It is only through a firm understanding of these dynamic interactions that we can predict future change in the hydrological and ecological components of landscapes. \nOne of the things I love about this area of research is that it requires a variety of tools and creativity in the design of new experiments and methods. A common approach is to study small-scale processes in the field and laboratory and then extrapolate that information to larger spatial scales and longer timescales using numerical simulations. I’ve used that approach in the Everglades to study the formation and degradation of a strikingly patterned landscape that is of prime interest in restoration activities. There\, I needed to perform experiments in the field and laboratory flumes to understand how organic sediment moved through canopies of marsh vegetation\, monitor surface water\, and groundwater biogeochemistry to understand how evapotranspiration affected nutrient availability\, and plant growth and develop new optical techniques for fingerprinting organic particles. The findings of this field and laboratory research led to the development of a simulation model that I used to test different hypotheses of landscape evolution. Now I am using similar techniques to evaluate whether radical new practices for restoring streams are sustainable (field site in Lancaster\, PA)\, understand how hydrologic connectivity affects water quality and vegetation community patterning in the Brazilian Pantanal\, and examine interactions between vegetation\, biofilms\, and land building processes in coastal marshes and river deltas.\nAlthough fieldwork and laboratory work are fun and create great stories (some of which I put into my children’s book about the Everglades!)\, they are also very expensive\, time-consuming\, and difficult. One thing I would like to accomplish in my career is to find new ways to generalize across geographically and physically diverse landscapes. Is there a finite set of processes—albeit in different combinations—controlling these diverse environments\, and if so\, how do we detect what those processes are with a minimum set of data and then use our knowledge of them to predict the future? This ability would be particularly useful for solving water resource problems in ungauged basins in the developing world. To that end\, I have an ongoing fascination with emerging quantitative analysis tools\, particularly in information theory and medicine. \nABSTRACT: Climate models project that changes in patterns of temperature and precipitation delivery will be ubiquitous\, but how those changes cascade through watersheds is less certain. Indeed\, the widespread disconnect between changes in extreme precipitation and extreme streamflow contrasts with model projections and underlies what has been referred to as a “grand challenge” of hydrology. Using CHOSEN (Comprehensive Hydrologic Observatory Sensor Network)\, we conducted a data-driven analysis of multidimensional hydrologic and climatic extremes. We found that drought and warming likely explain many of the observed changes in streamflow extreme but that wetter extremes arise from more complex phenomena. The talk concludes with a summary of some of the remaining “grand challenges” for understanding drought’s cascading effects on California’s ecosystems. \nABOUT THE SERIES: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry\, and civic leaders.

SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange – Holly Jimison on Health Interventions
DESCRIPTION:A CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar with speaker Holly Jimison \nTalk title: “Informatics Advances for Personalized Health Interventions” \nSpeaker: Director\, Consortium on Technology for Proactive Care\, Northeastern University; Visiting Professor\, UC Davis \nRegister to Attend >  \n \nSpeaker bio: Holly B. Jimison is the Director of the Consortium on Technology for Proactive Care at Northeastern University and on the faculty in both the College of Computer & Information Science and the College of Health Sciences. She leads a multidisciplinary\, multi-institutional effort to facilitate research in the area of home monitoring of health behaviors\, including helping researchers address the challenges of big data related to large amounts of complex and noisy streaming data from multiple sources used to infer clinically relevant health behaviors. Her current research projects are focused on technology approaches to support healthy aging. Dr. Jimison is also currently serving as Visiting Professor at UC Davis working on the Healthy Aging in a Digital World Initiative. \nAbstract: Health behaviors account for the most significant influence on overall health outcomes and healthcare costs\, far outpacing genetic effects or the influence of access to medical care. As we move from an era of “reactive” medicine that is hospital and clinic-based toward more holistic and proactive care focused on the management of chronic conditions and prevention\, informatics advances are needed to model patient state in real-time to deliver tailored just-in-time health interventions to the home. In this presentation\, I will describe AI techniques for inferring patient state in real-time from streaming sensor data and mobile interactions\, as well as a health coaching infrastructure for delivering tailored motivational and feedback mobile messaging. This architecture incorporates representations of user preferences\, motivations\, and barriers to change to enable the incorporation of known principles of health behavior change. Based on our needs assessment of stakeholders (elders\, family caregivers\, clinicians\, service providers\, researchers\, government\, and industry)\, we have focused on a design to facilitate the participation of family members and low-skilled caregivers as part of the care team. Our tested applications for this technology have ranged from interactive video exercise\, socialization\, and stress management to cognitive monitoring and cognitive health interventions. Bringing tailored and coordinated care interventions to the home offer a scalable and potentially cost-effective approach to improving health and quality of life for a growing population of individuals with chronic disease and conditions associated with aging. \nAbout the series: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry\, and civic leaders. Free and open to the public\, this series highlights leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Each seminar takes place on Wednesdays from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm PT.

SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange: Crystal Kolden on Fire Science
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: “How Do We Stop Wildfire Disasters? A Complex Systems Perspective” \nSpeaker: Crystal Kolden\, Assistant Professor of Fire Science\, UC Merced \nRegister To Attend \nAbstract: Wildfires are a complex physical process that occurs both naturally and at the hands of humans. Fires are necessary to support many ecosystems and cultures\, but are producing increasingly disastrous human outcomes globally\, and particularly in the western United States. While engineering and technological advances have substantially mitigated other types of natural disasters over decades\, there is a considerable lag in this arena for wildfire\, which is a product of how fire has been historically viewed in the U.S. This presentation reviews both why the frameworks applied to disaster mitigation have been overlooked with respect to wildfire and also the state of the science regarding common misconceptions about wildfire mitigation. Also highlighted are key areas where engineering\, technology and data sciences could produce substantial and rapid advances in mitigating wildfire disasters. Suggestions are offered for the development of near-term research in wildfire mitigation and adaption\, particularly through replication\, amplification and expansion of natural biological solutions. \nSpeaker Bio: Crystal Kolden is a pyrogeographer with over two decades of experience in fire science. After beginning her career as a wildland firefighter for the U.S. Forest Service in California\, she earned graduate degrees in geography focused on remote sensing of wildfires. She has spent the last 15 years trying to understand the causes of and identify solutions to rapidly increasing wildfire disasters. Kolden conducts research on wildfire disaster mitigation and works with communities and agencies globally to develop and implement adaptation strategies. \nAbout the Series: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry and civic leaders. Free and open to the public\, these seminars feature leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Presentations take place on Wednesdays from noon to 1 p.m. PT. Have an idea for a great talk?

SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange: Misha Pavel on Digital Health Care
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: “Dynamic Systems Modeling of Humans to Optimize Digital Health Care” \nSpeaker: Misha Pavel\, Professor of Practice in Computer Sciences and Health Sciences at Northeastern University; Visiting Professor in the Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing\, UC Davis \nRegister To Attend \nAbstract: The vision of transforming health care from reactive sick care to proactive health care requires new approaches to the assessment of individuals’ physical\, physiological and mental states and their dynamics. Emerging advances in sensing\, computation and communication technology have the potential to enable intensive longitudinal monitoring\, assessment and prediction to close the loop by optimizing early detection and tailored intervention. This presentation will discuss examples of robust computational modeling and predicting individuals’ behaviors combining machine learning\, hybrid dynamic systems and statistical signal processing with psychological knowledge. These include inferences of cognitive functionality from computer interactions and games that can be used for early detection of changes in cognitive function\, and approaches to inferences of stress levels from physiological measurements. In addition\, a principled approach using intensive longitudinal health behavior monitoring to help individuals to increase their physical activity and engagement is described. This approach also provides transparent explanations of the inferences and recommendations. \nSpeaker Bio: Misha Pavel holds a joint faculty appointment in Northeastern University’s Khoury College of Computer Sciences and Bouvé College of Health Sciences and visiting faculty at UC Davis. His background comprises electrical engineering\, computer science and experimental psychology. His research includes multiscale dynamic computational modeling of behaviors and psychological states\, with applications ranging from elder care to augmentation of human performance. Pavel uses these model-based approaches to develop algorithms transforming unobtrusive monitoring from smart homes and mobile devices to practical and actionable knowledge for diagnosis and intervention. Under the auspices of the Northeastern-based Consortium on Technology for Proactive Care\, Pavel and his colleagues target technological innovations to support the development of economically feasible\, proactive\, distributed and individual-centered health care. In addition\, Pavel is investigating approaches to inferring and augmenting human cognition using computer games\, EEG\, gait characteristics\, and transcranial electrical stimulation. \nAbout the Series: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry and civic leaders.

SUMMARY:CITRIS Research Exchange: Richard L. Corsi on Indoor Air Quality
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: “Pandemic Engineering: Accessible Tools for Lowering Risk and Spread of Infection” \nSpeaker: Richard Corsi\, Dean of the College of Engineering\, UC Davis \nRegister to Attend  \nAbstract: COVID-19 is an airborne infectious disease. As such\, far more attention should be paid to reducing the inhalation dose of virus-laden aerosol particles in both the near field (close contact) and far field (shared indoor air). This presentation will provide background on the infector-to=receptor pathway for transmission of COVID-19\, and engineering approaches to disrupt transmission by reducing the inhaled dose of respiratory aerosols. Particular attention will be paid to the development of technologies that are more accessible to those without the resources needed to reduce infections in their own families\, schools and general communities. The Corsi-Rosenthal box will be discussed as an example of a highly effective and relatively low-cost do-it-yourself air cleaner that is gaining popularity in North America and beyond. \nSpeaker Bio: Richard L. Corsi is dean of engineering at the University of California\, Davis. He spent most of his career at the University of Texas as faculty member\, department chair and endowed research chair in the Department of Civil\, Architectural\, and Environmental Engineering\, and as a member of the institution’s prestigious Academy of Distinguished Teachers. Corsi is an internationally recognized expert in the field of indoor air quality\, with a specific interest in physical and chemical interactions between pollutants and indoor materials. During the pandemic\, he has delivered numerous national webinars on layered risk reduction to reduce the spread of COVID-19\, completed modeling to underscore scenarios of high risk\, developed educational tools for school districts\, and conceptualized a highly effective new air cleaner for respiratory aerosols that has become known as the Corsi-Rosenthal Box. \nAbout the Series: CITRIS Research Exchange delivers fresh perspectives on information technology and society from distinguished academic\, industry and civic leaders. Free and open to the public\, these seminars feature leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Presentations take place on Wednesdays from noon to 1 p.m. PT. Have an idea for a great talk? Please feel free to suggest potential speakers for our series. \nSign up to receive the latest news and updates from CITRIS: http://bit.ly/SubscribeCITRIS
