We are interested in fundamental and applied research in algorithms and models in network science, machine learning, optimization, and scientific computing. In particular, we focus on combinatorial scientific computing, multiscale methods, large-scale graph problems, and big data analysis.
The applied algorithms group studies the theory and practice of algorithmic computer science, as well as in computing education efforts for these areas. We pursue fundamental research broadly in algorithmic theory in areas such as optimization, data structures, randomization, and large-scale data analytics. On the applied side, we collaborate extensively with domain experts to investigate applications of algorithmic computing in a number of areas, primarily in areas of biomedical informatics.

In the Design and Research of in-Vehicle Experiences Lab, our goal is to contribute to the future development of human-centered transportation technologies through theoretical and applied research. Our ongoing research involves the study of the user experience in partially/highly/fully automated vehicles, perceptive and adaptive advanced driver assistance systems and the accessibility of transportation technology for persons with disabilities. Beyond our transportation research, we also actively investigate how technology may be leveraged to improve human life and address societal ills. This research has, at times, involved the study of how mobile applications may be used to enhance police and community relations, the study of online social networking sites and the development and evaluation of purpose-built systems design to improve the lives of persons with disabilities.

The RESOLVE research effort is one of the longest running software engineering efforts in the USA. It spans foundational, practical, and educational aspects of software engineering and computing. The overall RESOLVE verification vision is that of a future in which no production software is considered properly engineered unless it has been fully specified, and fully verified as satisfying these specifications.

Our research explores novel systems and software design to improve performance, scalability, and energy efficiency of compute- and data-intensive applications on parallel and distributed systems.
Our group investigates cyberphysical interfaces for engaging with diverse computational systems. The physical editions of our interfaces incorporate diverse display elements (e.g., electronic paper, addressable LEDs, and physical actuation); sensors (e.g., capacitive, optical, magnetometer); and fabrication technologies (e.g., 3D printing, lasing, and CNC knives). Our virtual editions employ multitouch GUIs, VR, and other approaches. Example cyberphysical elements include special “challenge” coins, pages, books, and portals. Many of our applications engage ICy STEAM (interactive computational science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) – especially computational genomics – while also engaging broader topics and impacts.
The TRACE Research Group focuses on the intersection of teamwork and technology with particular focus on: human-machine teaming, human-AI collaboration, team cognition and technology, and the development/design of human-centered collaborative tools and systems.
