Associate Professor Hai Phan in Ying Wu College of Computing’s Department of Data Science has been awarded a $740,000 grant through the Qatar Research, Development and Innovation Council (QRDI) to develop a trustworthy federated learning (FL) model that will address new standards for AI safety and security as outlined in
New Jersey court officials are turning to NJIT’s Grace Wang, director of the university’s Center for Artificial Intelligence Research, as their technology expert for a new committee to help judges and lawyers understand AI’s role in the legal system.
Nautical nonsense is something they wished, and it was granted at this year’s edition of HackNJIT, where almost 400 students from New Jersey Institute of Technology and many other schools completed 63 ocean-themed projects.
Eight Ying Wu College of Computing (YWCC) students have recently begun their journey as members of the elite CyberCorps® Scholarship for Service (SFS) Program during fall 2023 through the NJIT Secure Computing Initiative (SCI), funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF).
Parth Mehta ’19, doesn’t believe in the question of “where do you want to be in five years?” According to him, since you cannot predict the future, don’t aim to build for five years ahead – build it now. When the information technology graduate founded Startup Tribes, his effort to bring startup and entrepreneurial support to the masses, he primarily relied upon sheer will and the conviction to settle for nothing less than 100%... the rest would be learned over time.
LunaTech, a web application where players can learn about space from a cartoon cat and send their professors into orbit, won first place in GirlHacks 2023 at New Jersey Institute of Technology.
The application is the brainchild of Fizah Fahad, Adrianna Rust and Ayushi Sangoi, who combined to win a $1,500 cash prize for their efforts. The trio coded in CSS, JavaScript, Python and a NASA programming interface.
If you're a human resource specialist grappling with AI-based decision systems for hiring good candidates, or a data scientist trying to develop transparent and accountable ranking algorithms for decision-making in critical socio-technical contexts, you will likely benefit from the research of Aritra Dasgupta, an assistant professor in the Department of Data Science at NJIT's Ying Wu College of Computing.
In case of another pandemic, authorities might only have a 28-day window to connect vulnerable populations to mental health providers before it’s too late to prevent long-term concerns, according to new research assisted by a data science expert at New Jersey Institute of Technology.
An ongoing collaboration between AT&T and NJIT over the past three years has produced several publications and patent applications for inventions that have the potential to revolutionize network experiences.
