Title: Strengthening Physical Unclonable Functions using Composition
Date: August 7, 2019
Time: 3:30 PM
Place: EIT 3151
Supervisor(s): Patel, Hiren D.
Abstract:
We explore the idea of composing PUFs with the intent that the resultant PUF is stronger than the constituent PUFs. Prior work has proposed a construction, which subsequent work has shown to be weak.

Title: From Reinforcement Learning to Approximate Optimal Learning
Date: August 9, 2019
Time: 2:00PM
Place: EIT 3145
Supervisor(s): Tripunitara, Mahesh
Abstract:
Reinforcement learning framework gives no closed form analysis for exploration/exploitation dilemma. As a consequence, there is no general theory to explain data efficiency, which often impacts practical applications of reinforcement learning algorithms.
Candidate: Benjamin Morcos

Place: EIT 3142
Supervisor(s): Mansour, Raafat R.
Abstract:
Join us for a dialogue exchange on exploring mutual advocacy for a brighter Engineering community
Let’s create safe space to discuss stigma we experience and how we can enable mutual advocacy through our shared wisdom. Join us for a dialogue exchange. Here we will collaboratively engage in a sharing circle modeled from indigenous practices and guided by a trained facilitator. Come hold some space with us. Space is limited! Light refreshments provided. All Engineering Graduate Students welcome.
Candidate: Buu Truong Phan

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
