CSL professor Naresh Shanbhag recalls how ECE ILLINOIS distinguished alumnus Jack Kilby’s invention of the integrated circuit was a critical component of computers being placed on board the Apollo 11 spacecraft, helping make the mission possible and a success.
Robots are good at making identical repetitive movements, such as a simple task on an assembly line, but they lack the ability to perceive objects as they move through an environment. A recent study was led by CSL researchers on 6D object pose estimation to develop a filter to give robots greater spatial perception so they can manipulate objects and navigate through space more accurately.

R.T. Chien Lecture: "Inherent Trade-Offs in Algorithmic Fairness "

Recent discussion in the public sphere about classification by algorithms has involved tension between competing notions of what it means for such a classification to be fair to different groups. We consider several of the key fairness conditions that lie at the heart of these debates, and discuss recent research establishing inherent trade-offs between these conditions. We also consider a variety of methods for promoting fairness and related notions for classification and ranking problems that involve sets rather than just individuals. This talk is based on joint work with Sendhil Mullainathan and Manish Raghavan.
