SUMMARY:The Orren C. Mohler Prize Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Volker Springel\, Professor\, Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics & Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich\, Germany \n“Simulated Universes: Origin and Fate of Our Milky Way”\nGalaxies contain hundreds of billions of stars and display a wide variety of shapes and sizes. But these cosmic lighthouses are just markers for even much vaster structures lying underneath. In fact\, astrophysicists are convinced that the vast majority of the energy and matter content of the Universe does not consist of ordinary matter\, but is dominated by enigmatic dark matter and dark energy components. Supercomputer simulations play a crucial role in testing this seemingly daring cosmological hypothesis. The astonishing performance of today’s supercomputers makes it possible to link the relatively simple initial conditions left by the Big Bang directly with the complex\, developed state of the present universe and thus trace the life of galaxies in detail. They show how a cosmic network of dark matter is created over 13 billion years\, at the intersections of which structures of various sizes form\, from small dwarf galaxies to enormous galaxy clusters. The supercomputers also make predictions about the specific formation history of the Milky Way\, and how it should develop in the future. At the same time\, the simulations can also help us to explain extreme phenomena such as the effect of supermassive black holes on the cosmic evolution of galaxies. \nSponsored by the Department of Astronomy

SUMMARY:Carol Flannagan\, PhD\, University of Michigan - MIDAS Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Carol A. C. Flannagan\, PhD\nResearch Associate Professor\nUniversity of Michigan Transportation Research Institute\nUniversity of Michigan\nBio: Carol A. C. Flannagan is a research associate professor in UMTRI’s Biosciences Group\, and director of CMISST. She joined UMTRI in 1991 after completing her Ph.D. in mathematical and experimental psychology at the University of Michigan (U-M). She also holds an M.A. in applied statistics from U-M and a B.A. in psychology from St. Lawrence University. \nDr. Flannagan has over 20 years of experience conducting data analysis and research on injury risk related to motor vehicle crashes and was responsible for the development of a model of injury outcome that allows side-by-side comparison of public health\, vehicle\, roadway and post-crash interventions. She has also applied statistical methods to understanding of the potential benefits of crash-avoidance technologies\, and works to develop novel applications of statistics to improve understanding of transporation safety. Dr. Flannagan’s current work with CMISST involves the fusion and analysis of large state-level crash databases\, which are useful in analyzing the effect of a variety of countermeasures on crash involvement and injury risk. In addition\, her group is working to make data available to researchers to expand the community of experts in transportation data analysis. \nFor more information on MIDAS or the Seminar Series\, please contact midas-contact@umich.edu. MIDAS gratefully acknowledges Northrop Grumman Corporation for its generous support of the MIDAS Seminar Series.

SUMMARY:Emily Mower Provost\, PhD\, University of Michigan - MIDAS Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Emily Mower Provost\, PhD\nAssistant Professor\nComputer Science Engineering\nUniversity of Michigan\n  \n“Human-Centered Computing: Using Speech to Understand Behavior”\n  \nBio: Emily Mower Provost is an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science and Engineering Department (CSE) at the University of Michigan.  She received her B.S. degree in electrical engineering from Tufts University\, Boston\, MA\, in 2004 and her M.S. and PhD degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Southern California (USC)\, Los Angeles\, in 2007 and 2010\, respectively.  Her research interests are in human-centered speech and video processing and multimodal interfaces design. The goals of her research are motivated by the complexities of human emotion generation and perception. She seeks to provide a computational account of how humans perceive emotional utterances (“emotion perception”) and combines this with knowledge gleaned from perception estimation studies (“emotion recognition”) to develop systems capable of interpreting naturalistic expressions of emotion utilizing a new quantification measure (“emotion profiles”). She has published many articles in these areas and is a contributor to the winning paper in the classifier category of the 2009 Interspeech Emotion Challenge\, a best student paper at ACM Multimedia 2014\, and an honorable mention at IEEE ICMI 2016.  She received the Oscar Stern Award for Depression Research (2015) \nAbstract: Emotion and mood have intrigued researchers for generations. This fascination has permeated the engineering community\, motivating the development of affective computational models for classification\, particularly in the domain of assistive technology for mental health.  Effective treatment and monitoring for individuals with mental health disorders is an enduring societal challenge. Regular monitoring increases access to preventative treatment\, but is often cost prohibitive or infeasible given high demands placed on health care providers. Yet\, it is critical for individuals with Bipolar Disorder (BPD)\, a chronic psychiatric illness characterized by mood transitions between healthy and pathological states. Transitions into pathological states are associated with profound disruptions in personal\, social\, vocational functioning\, and emotion regulation.  I will present our ongoing work investigating new approaches in speech-based mood and emotion modeling. \nFor more information on MIDAS or the Seminar Series\, please contact midas-contact@umich.edu.
