Levine, R. (CSE) – Validating GPU Memory Consistency and Safety at Scale
Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CAHybrid EventGraphics Processing Units (GPUs) have become essential platforms for parallel computing, supporting applications far beyond graphics. Central to GPU programming models is its memory consistency specification (MCS), which defines the […]

Scott, J. (CSE) – Mechanistic Specialization Does Not Guarantee Performance: Evidence from Dual AttentionTransformers
Virtual EventDual Attention Transformers (DATs) extend decoder-only Transformers with a dedicated relational-attention stream, making them a natural architecture for abstract identity rules such asABA and ABB. Surprisingly, we find that comparably […]

Kembay, A. (ECE) – Sparse and Continual Foundations for Adaptive General Intelligence
Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CAHybrid EventWhile the human brain learns continually, mastering new tasks without forgetting the old and adapting to unfamiliar ones from context alone, modern neural networks still lack both. To bridge the […]

July Slugs and Steins with Assistant Professor Aide Macias-Munoz
Virtual EventUnlocking the blueprint for regeneration: Insights from Hydra Regeneration, the ability to heal and regrow lost body parts, varies across species, tissues, and even cell types. To harness regenerative ability for medicine, we need to understand the genetic mechanisms that are similar across regenerating species. My lab uses Hydra, a small freshwater relative of jellyfish, to investigate […]

Calicchio, A. (BMEB) – Comparison of long-read sequencing and analysis methods for transcriptome analysis
Biomedical Sciences Building 575 McLaughlin DriveHybrid EventAlternative splicing, the process generating different RNA isoforms from a single gene, is considered one of the main factors driving increased organism complexity in eukaryotes. Variations in isoform and gene […]

Gholami, K. (ECE) – Efficient Language Model Construction and Inference via Sparsity
Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CAHybrid EventWhile large language models can match or exceed human performance, they do so with memory and energy costs orders of magnitude greater than biological cognition. We investigate sparsity as a […]
