Deep neural networks (DNNs) are often used for text classification due to their high accuracy. However, DNNs can be computationally intensive, requiring millions of parameters and large amounts of labeled data, which can make them expensive to use, to optimize, and to transfer to out-of-distributed (OOD) cases in practice.

Billions of people rely on web services powered by data centers, where critical applications run 24/7. Unfortunately, data center applications are extremely inefficient, wasting more than 60% of all processor cycles, and causing millions of dollars in operational expenses and energy costs.

My research focuses on the security, privacy, and transparency of technologies in societal and legal context. My talk will focus on three of my recent works in this space, relating to (1) preventing exploitation of stolen email data, (2) enhancing accountability in electronic surveillance, and (3) legal risks faced by security researchers.

Causal inference provides a powerful suite of tools through which economists, epidemiologists, and the social sciences understand the world. But textbook causal inference methods limit the questions that scientists can ask because they rely on classical statistical estimation techniques.

Rendering and path-tracing techniques power most of the complex computer-generated content we see in films and movies, visualizations and even video games. However, these techniques are strictly confined to ray optics, while many applications often require simulating the interference and diffraction phenomena, that arise from the wave nature of light.
