This entree is a part of our Meet the Faculty blog series, which introduces and highlights faculty who have recently joined CDS Meet CDS Faculty Yanjun Han, who will join CDS this fall as an Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Data Science. Yanjun is a Norbert Wiener postdoctoral associate at…

As our students prepare for graduation, CDS honors their commitment to data science It’s graduation season at NYU! Spring weather is here, and final papers have been submitted. As our students get ready to fill Yankee Stadium with purple caps and gowns, CDS would like to take a moment to…

The development of a new “distribution-aware” method by a team of NYU researchers was named a notable paper at AISTATS Feature attribution methods are used in machine learning to help identify which features have the largest impact on a label. While insightful, a team of NYU researchers demonstrated in a…

A capstone paper by CDS students exploring how AI models can better recognize objects to aid those with blindness was accepted at the 2023 IEEE-EMBC Conference Artificial intelligence has shown significant potential for developing technologies to benefit people with blindness or low vision. These object detection models are typically trained…

The research proposes a local low-dimensional probability model of large images Recent advances in score-based diffusion generative models show that deep neural networks can learn the complex and high dimensional probability distributions of images. How these networks capture complex global statistical structures without appearing to suffer from “the curse of…

A paper on vision and language navigation by a team of researchers including CDS PhD student Aishwarya Kamath was accepted at CVPR 2023 Training robots to follow human instructions in natural language is a significant long-term challenge in artificial intelligence research. To explore this question, the field of Vision and…

CDS Associated Professor of Technology, Operations, and Statistics Vasant Dhar recently wrote an editorial featured in Yahoo Finance, evaluating the reaction to last month’s Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) financial meltdown. …

A tool developed by a team of researchers including CDS Joint Faculty Claudio Silva is expanding pedestrian infrastructure While cities are increasingly promoting pedestrian-accessible spaces, walkers are often left to figure out routes without reliable information on hand. …

Professors Vasant Dhar and Sam Bowman discuss the control problem in Episode 58 of the Brave New World Podcast The question at the center of Sam Bowman’s career has been: what can neural networks do with language? The CDS Associate Professor of Linguistics, Data Science & Computer Science studies neural…
