Abstract

Moderate to severe traumatic brain injury is the leading cause of injury-induced death and disability. For patients with traumatic brain injuries (TBI), in the first 48 hours, 48% of patients show a clinically relevant neurological worsening and therefore, it is critical that clinicians can identify neurological worsening quickly and act on treatment accordingly.

Grad Seminar: Open-loop Transient Atomic Force Microscopy

Abstract

The Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) is an instrument for measuring, in fact “seeing”, phenomena at nanoscale (10−9m) and all the way down to the atomic scale (<10−10m). It was borne out of a need to observe physical reality below the resolution of optical microscopes. Invented in 1986 by Binnig, it has aided scientists, researchers, and engineers spanning many scientific and industrial domains. The typical sensing apparatus of the AFM is a very sharp tip (a few atoms wide) attached to the free-end of a fixed-free micro-beam.

University of Waterloo Tape Music Club

University of Waterloo Tape Music Club (UWTMC) is back in a big way this term, with a semi-weekly jam session during your lunch break on Mondays and Wednesdays! Come make music and make community with folks. No skills or instruments are required. Everyone is invited and welcome - all skill levels, genres, and experiences!

The sessions start January 11th in the E7 1st Floor Ideas Clinic on UW Main Campus and run from 12-1:30 p.m.

Block Printing Workshop

The Emergent Encounters Action Project, in collaboration with AACFTDOAPORUCACIAWOMW, is running a 3-part block printing workshop! All materials and tools are provided. 

Session 1 - Jan 17th - 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. in E5-6008:

Come see a printing process from design to layout to carving to printing. This session will introduce one approach to take an idea in your head and turn it into a finished print. There will also be time to let you roll and pull some prints!

Session 2 - Jan 24th - 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. in E5-6008:

Grad Seminar: Sea ice classification with dual-polarized SAR imagery: a hierarchical pipeline

Abstract

Sea ice mapping on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery is important for various purposes, including ship navigation and usage in environmental and climatological studies. Although a series of deep learning-based models have been proposed for automatic sea ice classification on SAR scenes, most of them are flat N-way classifiers that do not consider the uneven visual separability of different sea ice types. To further improve classification accuracy with limited training samples, a hierarchical deep learning-based pipeline is proposed for sea ice mapping from SAR.

Abstract

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) refers to a group of conditions that primarily affect the gut and cause inflammation. In contrast, Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is a chronic immune-mediated condition characterized by boils in a person's underarms, groyne, and/or under their breasts. In recent years, the research on HS has been gaining a growing level of interest in light of reliable recognition of these two diseases (i.e., IBD and HS) becoming crucial in clinical settings.
