EE Faculty Colloquium by Prof. Kaushik Basu

EE, MMCR

Venue: MMCR, EE Time: 4pm, 20 January 2023 Abstract:Silicon Carbide MOSFETs (SiC MOSFETs) fall into wide band gap (WBG) power devices. These devices are commercially available in the voltage range of 600-3300V and compete with the state-of-the-art Si-insulated gate bipolar junction transistors (IGBTs). Superior material properties  of SiC MOSFET lead to smaller die sizes. This […]

EE Faculty Colloquium on Learning from unreliable data

EE, MMCR

Speaker: Prof. P.S. Sastry, Dept of Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Science Abstract: Supervised learning of classifiers is widely used in many applications of AI/ML. The deep networks used in such applications today need a large training set. Creating a labelled data set where one can have high confidence in the labels is both expensive […]

Title of the thesis: Short Circuit and Open Circuit Natural Frequencies of 3-Φ Transformers. Research Supervisor: Prof. L. Satish Meeting link : Click here to join the meeting Abstract Frequency Response Analysis (FRA) method is perhaps the most sensitive tool that can detect even the slightest of winding/core movements. High sensitivity, non-invasiveness, non-destructiveness, and on-site capability […]

An Introduction to Neuromorphic Computing with Intel Loihi

EE, MMCR

Speaker: Ashish Rao Mangalore, Doctoral resident at Intel Labs, Munich, Germany Abstract: Neuromorphic computing is a new paradigm of computing inspired by the organization and functioning of neurons in the mammalian brain. The architectural features derived from this inspiration result in orders of gain in the time and energy to solution for various classes of […]
