Thu 22 May 2025   11:00 - 12:00	Seminar: Quantum Nexus For Sensing, Communication, Control, And Computing Centre for Electronics Click here to join the seminar online Summary Recent advancements in quantum information science are poised to unleash new sensing, communication, control, and computing (SC3) capabilities. Synergies in SC3 promise the development of next-generation networks with unprecedented performance. For instance, (i) control of statistical information empowers practical quantum inference, (ii) quantum ranging and synchronization facilitates networked sensing, and (iii) remote entanglement...

Wed 28 May 2025   14:00 - 15:00	Seminar: IEEE Distinguished Lecture on Sensor Location Optimisation for Effective and Robust Beamforming  Centre for Electronics Online Teams Link Summary In many applications, the sensor array's geometrical layout is assumed to be fixed and given in advance. However, it is possible to change the geometrical layout of the array including adjacent sensor spacing and these additional spatial degrees of freedom (DOFs) can be exploited to improve the performance in terms of either beamforming or direction finding or both. With the development of compressive sensing (CS) or the sparsity maximization framework, a new CS...

Mon 16 Jun 2025   18:00 - 20:00	Double Book Launch: "Learning to Listen, Listening to Learn" by Marcus Pearce and "Understanding the Artificial Intelligence Revolution by Shalom Lappin. Centre for Human-Centred Computing Join us to celebrate the publication of two books: Marcus Pearce Learning to Listen, Listening to Learn: Music Perception and the Psychology of Enculturation Learning to listen, Listening to Learn presents a unified theory of music perception based on psychological processes of statistical learning and probabilistic prediction. It develops and evaluates a computational model of the perceptual learning underlying cultural evolution of music, accounting for the human capacity to perceive...

Mon 7 Jul 2025	2pm Seminar: Adrian Chung, METRICS as a bridge between black-hole ringdown signals and fundamental physics  Centre for Geometry, Analysis and Gravitation Abstract: Many of the gravitational-wave signals detected by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA detectors end with exponentially decaying waves emitted by the remnant black holes formed by the corresponding binary black-hole coalescence. The frequencies and lifetimes of these decaying waves are called quasinormal mode frequencies, and they are closely related to the dynamics of the spacetime near the horizon of the remnant black hole. In this connection, detecting black-hole quasinormal modes is a powerful...
