April 19 Colloquium: "The Many Facets of the Quantum Adiabatic Theorem"
In this talk, we will discuss the evolution of this theorem and the surprising developments of the 1980s that led to the concept of the geometric phase. We will use simple models to demonstrate how QAC is applied in applications. Additionally, we will explore how the discovery of geometric phases has led to the idea of quantum holonomic computing.

March 29 Colloquium: "Emission Factor Selection with Neural Language Models"
To avoid repetitive analysis, environmental impact factors (EIF) of common materials and products are published for use by LCA experts. However, finding appropriate EIFs for even a single product under study can require hundreds of hours of manual work, especially for complex products. We present Flamingo, an algorithm that leverages natural language machine learning (ML) models to automatically identify an appropriate EIF given a text description.

March 22 Colloquium: "Multimodal Learning from Pixels to People"
People experience the world through modalities of sight, sound, words, touch, and more. By leveraging their natural relationships and developing multimodal learning methods, my research creates artificial perception systems with diverse skills, including spatial, physical, logical, and cognitive abilities, for flexibly analyzing visual data.
