Rice CS PhD student Peizhu "Pam" Qian and team have developed an algorithm called Personalized Policy Summarization (PPS) that could be a breakthrough in explainable AI. Their new PPS algorithm can help humans and machines better understand one another, a critically important aspect of using robots in medicine and disaster response. Researchers from the Human-Centered AI and Robotics Group also include Qian's advisor, Rice CS Assistant Professor Vaibhav Unhelkar, and fellow graduate student Harrison Huang. https://bit.ly/4iwRq7S

关于我们
As part of Rice University's George R. Brown School of Engineering and Computing, the Department of Computer Science offers six degrees: Bachelor of Art Bachelor of Science Master of Science Master of Computer Science Master of Data Science Doctor of Philosophy Our courses teach you how to approach problems by thinking about the characteristics of a problem, its parameters, and the ways in which they can be represented; also how data is produced, processed and organized, and how it can be modeled, analyzed, visualized, and manipulated. You will also explore the impact of computing paradigms and use existing and emerging hardware ecosystems to tackle challenging problems. The problem-solving, analytical and programming skills you learn here can be applied to the challenges found in areas such as medicine, energy, economics, and social issues, among many others. Undergraduate students do not need prior coding experience to succeed in our introductory courses, and our professional masters programs are some of the few that do not require an undergraduate degree in computer science.

Rice CS alum and DexMat CEO Bryan Hassin ('01, '02) discusses the future of climate tech in this episode of Beyond the Hedges.
In the latest episode of “Beyond the Hedges,” host David Mansouri ’07 talks with DexMat CEO Bryan Hassin ’01, ’02 and Haotian Wang, Rice University Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering associate professor, about the future of climate tech. They discuss Rice’s role in advancing the field, from Hassin’s work scaling carbon-negative materials to Wang’s research on developing nanomaterials for sustainable energy. https://lnkd.in/gCgxrirP

As we mark 50 years of the George R. Brown School of Engineering and Computing, we celebrate milestones like the Center for Research on Parallel Computation (CRPC), a NSF Science and Technology Center. The CRPC was founded by Ken Kennedy, shown here with his trusty Macintosh Powerbook laptop in 1992. From 1989 to 2000, the CRPC concentrated on making parallel computers usable by fostering advances in software and algorithms. In 1998, researchers at the CRPC found an optimal route for a traveling salesman visiting the largest 13,509 U.S. cities, topping previous records. The traveling-salesman problem (TSP) is a classic benchmark problem for computers. Their solution took three months to finish on a cluster of three Digital AlphaServer 4100s (12 processors) and a cluster of 32 Pentium II PCs, located in Duncan Hall. The printed code was over 1,000 pages. #RiceEngComp50

Ever dreamed of earning your degree while also traveling the world? Leah Li, a student in Rice University’s Online Master of Computer Science program, is proving you can do exactly that. This past summer she served as a resident assistant at the Rice Global Paris Center - where she had the incredible opportunity to explore Paris and immerse herself in Parisian culture. For Li, the flexibility of the online program allows her to balance her passion for travel while obtaining a high-level education. “You get to explore new places, new cultures and new perspectives while continuing your education. You also get the chance to build your independence and time-management skills,” said Li. “It’s the perfect environment for me.” Read more about Li’s unique journey: https://lnkd.in/gB_WKGJS

M.S. Student @ Rice MCS | Student Ambassador & TA @ Rice | SDE & PM @ America Data Science | Multilingual (Fluent in 5 Languages)
Honored to have my story shared by President Reginald DesRoches and grateful for the incredible opportunities at Rice, especially through Rice Online! It was a pleasure meeting both President DesRoches and Mrs. DesRoches in Paris—thank you for your warmth, support, and inspiring leadership. Go Owls! ??
Imagine traveling the world while earning an in-demand degree from a top institution. With Rice’s online master’s programs, that’s exactly what’s possible. This flexibility is one of the many reasons we’re proud of Rice’s academic offerings – bringing world-class education to wherever life takes you. “Even though I’m not on campus, I’ve never felt that my sense of community is less than anyone’s,” said Leah Li, an international student pursuing a career in computer science. “I always feel it’s important to give back to our Rice community, and I’m very proud to be a Rice student.” https://bit.ly/4kbaPN0 #RiceUniversity #OnlineLearning #GlobalEducation
