Image forensics is a longstanding area of computer vision research, in which one attempts to detect, localize, and/or attribute manipulations of still and video imagery. This talk describes the progression of the field from the foundations of digital image forensics to modern issues related to deepfakes. Early work focused on manipulations made with interactive image editing, using signal processing approaches that estimate and match sensor fingerprints. Then, in the late 2010’s, new forensic challenges arose from the rise of generative AI-based image synthesis and editing, along with the increased use of in-camera image enhancement. These rapid changes in nature of both real and altered imagery necessitated the development of new algorithms and datasets. This talk will present technical approaches from these different eras of digital image forensics, and conclude with an enumeration of current challenges in image forensics.

2 events,In an era defined by constant disruption—driven by rapid technological evolution, shifting customer expectations, regulatory pressures, and geopolitical uncertainty—enterprises must move beyond episodic transformation toward continuous reinvention. This webinar, presented by Abdelkrim Doufene and Thierry de Bernouis from Dassault Systèmes, introduces the concept of the Virtual Twin of Organization (VTO) as a foundational capability for next-generation enterprises. Building on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, VTO enables organizations to model, simulate, and optimize their operating models in a virtual environment. By integrating people, processes, systems, and agentic AI, enterprises can explore a vast space of strategic possibilities, anticipate disruptions, and continuously adapt with agility. This approach supports a “left shift” in decision-making—allowing organizations to assess impacts before execution and accelerate value realization. Through cross-industry use cases in manufacturing and services, the session will illustrate how Virtual Twins of Organizations enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, improve performance, and enable smarter, data-driven decisions. Attendees will gain insights into how generative AI and virtual environments converge to create a decision-centric enterprise—capable of faster, more resilient, and sustainable transformation.

Biomimetic autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) provide an alternative to conventional propeller-driven systems, particularly for tasks requiring high maneuverability and precise low-speed operation. Median and paired fin (MPF) locomotion, inspired by aquatic animals, enables effective hovering and agile motion, making it well-suited for inspection tasks. Among MPF-based designs, sea turtle-inspired four-fin propulsion has gained increasing attention. Platforms such as Turtle 2005, Madeleine, Finnegan, and AQUA have demonstrated the potential of this approach. In this context, U-CAT, developed within the ARROWS European project, is a biomimetic AUV specifically designed for close-range inspection of shipwrecks and delicate underwater structures, with its design driven by end-user and environmental constraints. Motion control of such systems remains challenging due to nonlinear dynamics, strong coupling, and underactuation. This talk presents some control strategies for biomimetic AUVs, focusing on U-CAT case study, including priority-based, acoustic-, vision-, and data-fusion-based control methods. Their performance is demonstrated Speaker(s): Dr. Chemori Agenda: Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/552657 |

Virtual power contracts - financial instruments that settle against electricity-market outcomes - are increasingly being used by corporate buyers and governments to hedge electricity price risk and support efficient investments in new energy technologies. Because electricity sellers are subject to production and congestion uncertainty in the underlying commodity network, settlement losses can exceed spot-revenues. Under limited liability, this creates counterparty default risk for the buyer. We study the optimal design of virtual power contracts when a buyer procures from privately informed sellers subject to quantity and price-separation risk. The optimal contract conditions payments on generation and transmission outcomes, providing production and locational insurance. Common designs, such as fixed-price contracts-for-differences, provide price-stability but may expose the buyer to seller default risk. More flexible designs, such as adaptive-price contracts with a floor, improve the buyer's ability to screen generators with heterogeneous default risk but introduce greater price volatility. Our results highlight a trade-off between screening counterparty risk and price stability, and provide guidance for the design of long-term electricity procurement auctions.

IEEE Norther Jersey Section RAS and SMC Chapter Seminar Transsynaptic Signal Propagation and Interference for Noninvasive Modulation of Deep Brain Activity Dr. Qi (Edward) Kang Department of Biomedical Engineering New Jersey Institute of Technology Time: 9am, ECE Conference Room, NJIT Online link: https://njit-edu.zoom.us/j/9735966282?pwd=QlZtZFlOZ2FMZjlXemQwNmVUci9yUT09 Abstract: Currently, transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) is considered one of the most widely applied and frequently used non-invasive brain stimulation techniques. However, within tES, transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is fundamentally limited by the rapid attenuation of electric fields with depth, which restricts its ability to directly modulate deep brain structures. This talk discusses a shift from a stimulation-based perspective to a signal propagation framework, where neural activity is controlled through transsynaptic pathways. Using in vivo recordings in anesthetized rats, we demonstrate that cortical tACS entrains Purkinje cells in the cerebellar cortex, and that this activity propagates through cerebellar nuclei to modulate neurons in the motor thalamus. The resulting responses exhibit frequency-dependent tuning, phase locking, and characteristic transitions between unimodal and bimodal spiking distributions, indicating structured signal transmission across multiple synaptic stages. Building on this mechanism, we introduce an electrophysiological interference (EI) paradigm in which independently driven cortical inputs interact at downstream neural populations through synaptic integration rather than through direct electric field superposition. Our results show that deep brain activity can be modulated in a pathway-specific and frequency-dependent manner without direct stimulation of the target region. Biography: Qi Kang (Member, IEEE) received his B.S. degree in 2013 from Ningxia Institute of Science and Technology, M.S. degree in 2018 from New York Institute of Technology, Ph.D. degree in 2025 from the New Jersey Institute of Technology. He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at NJIT in the Department of Biomedical Engineering. His research focuses on noninvasive neural modulation of motor systems using electrical stimulation techniques. He has published many papers in this research areas and a frequent reviewer of several journals and conferences.

Visit the Dr Robert Woodrow Wilson Park. View the Antenna. Discuss the science and technology before meeting up at AT&T Labs, Middletown NJ. [] Reference in the National Register of Historic Places: National Register Form 89002457.pdf United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Registration Form The Horn Antenna, at the Bell Telephone Laboratories in Holmdel, New Jersey, is significant because of its association with the research work of two radio astronomers, Dr. Arno A. Penzias and Dr. Robert A. Wilson. In 1965 while using the Horn Antenna, Penzias and Wilson stumbled on the microwave background radiation that permeates the universe. Cosmologists quickly realized that Penzias and Wilson had made the most important discovery in modern astronomy since Edwin Hubble demonstrated in the 1920s that the universe was expanding. This discovery provided the evidence that confirmed George Gamow's and Abbe Georges Lemaitre's "Big Bang" theory of the creation of the universe and forever changed the science of cosmology—the study of the history of the universe—from a field for unlimited theoretical speculation into a subject disciplined by direct observation. In 1978 Penzias and Wilson received the Nobel Prize for Physics for their momentous discovery. Two Letters Submitted to the Astrophysical Journal Letters Two letters were rushed to the Astrophysical Journal Letters. In the first, Dicke and his associates outlined the importance of cosmic background radiation as substantiation of the Big Bang Theory. The second letter signed jointly by Penzias and Wilson titled, "A Measurement of Excess Antenna Temperature at 4080 Megacycles per Second" disclosed the existence of the residual background noise, and attributed a possible explanation to that given by Dicke in his companion letter.
