This talk argues that the years ahead will usher in the era of the algorithm, a notion that might prove just as disruptive as the revolution in the physical sciences was in the last century. The talk will also argue why algorithms are even more powerful than customarily believed but why they will not unleash their true potential until they become full-fledged scientific tools and not just problem-solvers.  (Series: CSE Colloquia - 2008)

Recent psychological research has revealed widely-held unconscious thought patterns that most people would rather not possess. In this program from the University of Washington psychology department, MacArthur awardee Dr. Lisa Cooper, John Hopkins University School of Medicine, describes her research on how patient race influences patient-physician communication and physician clinical decision making. She also includes her efforts to design interventions to negate these undesired racial and ethnic health care disparities. (Series: Allen L. Edwards Psychology Lectures)

The use of sensing systems in the home has the potential to impact various research areas such as chronic care management, aging in place, and sustainability. A major challenge remains in identifying and developing truly ubiquitous sensing solutions that address deployment challenges of cost-effectiveness, installation, maintenance and overall acceptability for a general audience. In the home, the goal of practical ubiquity has led Shwetak Patel of Georgia Institute of Technology to develop a new sensing approach, which he calls "Infrastructure Mediated Sensing," or IMS. In this University of Washington program, learn more about infrastructure mediation, which refers to the simple augmentation and probing of existing home infrastructure, such as the electrical power lines, plumbing, or HVAC systems, to sense human activity.  (Series: CSE Colloquia - 2008)
