Student presenting a CS colloquium talk
On 1/23 at 2pm in room EIEAB 2.208 there will be a 20 minute talk given by current undergraduate student Tim Gomez. He will be presenting his work, along with coauthors, on robot motion planning with uniform external controls. The talk will be the talk he gave at the 2020 Symposium on Discrete Algorithms, and is based on the following paper published in that conference: https://faculty.utrgv.edu/robert.schweller/papers/soda2020.pdf
All are welcome! See you there!
Proceedings from Hack Research
The 2nd Hack Research was a great success with some high-quality output and a lot of great participation. We had about 60 students there and over half of the students were part of a submission. The proceedings are now online on the event website: https://utrgv.hackresearch.com/site/?page_id=319. We’re looking forward to 2020!
2nd Annual Hack Research (HackR 2019)
ASARG is hosting the 2nd annual Hack Research (HackR) on December 7-8, 2019. The website with the details and registration is currently live (utrgv.hackresearch.com). Register and come join us for 24 hours of research, learning, and teamwork.
