Research
Welcome to the Computer Science Department’s Research information page. You can find
the areas of research our faculty members are pursuing currently.
If you would like to inquire about an opportunity to work within these areas of research,
please reach out to the corresponding faculty member.
-
Artificial Intelligence: AI is a wide-ranging branch of computer science concerned with building smart machines
capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. It is the endeavor
to replicate or simulate Human Intelligence in machines.
-
Computational Complexity: In computer science, the computational complexity or simply complexity of an algorithm
is the amount of resources required to run it. Particular focus is given to time and
memory requirements. The complexity of a problem is the complexity of the best algorithms
that allow solving the problem.
-
Cybersecurity: Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting systems, networks, and programs from
digital attacks. These cyberattacks are usually aimed at accessing, changing, or destroying
sensitive information; extorting money from users; or interrupting normal business
processes.
-
Empirical Algorithmics: In Computer Science, empirical algorithmics is the practice of using empirical methods
to study the behavior of algorithms….in this process, an initial design of an algorithm
is analyzed so that the algorithm may be developed in a stepwise manner.
-
Formal Methods and Theorem Proving: Computers and Theorem Proving. Formal verification involves the use of logical and
computational methods to establish claims that are expressed in precise mathematical
terms.... Automated theorem proving focuses on the “finding” aspect.
-
Human-Centered Computing and Human-Computer Interaction: Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) is the study of the way in which computer technology
influences human work and activities.
-
Machine Learning: Machine learning is a method of data analysis that automates analytical model building.
It is a branch of artificial intelligence based on the idea that systems can learn
from data, identify patterns and make decisions with minimal human intervention.
-
3D User Interfaces and Graphics: Three-dimensional user interface design is a critical component of any virtual environment
(VE) application. ... We divide most user-interaction tasks into three categories:
navigation, selection/manipulation, and system control.
-
Virtual Environments and Virtual Humans: Monitoring: Acquiring, interpreting, and understanding shape and motion data on human
movement, performance, activities, or intent. Virtual Environments: Living and working
in a virtual place for visualization, analysis, training, or just the experience.
