Please sign in using the email address tied to your Zoom account — not necessarily the one you used to register for the event.): https://sjsu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_DIDfdbkgRFeEd3JbzURIUQ Synopsis: How are machine learning algorithms able to answer questions from any nook and corner of the World Wide Web? How are trending hashtags from the near infinite microblog posts, unique visitors and other distinct counts in the near infinite website traffic determined? How do blogging websites avoid recommending articles a user has previously read? In general, how can we answer complex queries about enormous data streams without storing them entirely, in real-time? The answer often lies in clever approximation algorithms and data "sketches" that capture essential properties using vastly reduced space. The relentless flow of data in modern systems indeed presents significant challenges. These data streams are often too large to store and too fast to process exhaustively with traditional methods. This talk introduces key sketching and approximation techniques that help generate real-time data insights by processing data streams. --------------------------------------------------------------- By registering for this event, you agree that IEEE and the organizers are not liable to you for any loss, damage, injury, or any incidental, indirect, special, consequential, or economic loss or damage (including loss of opportunity, exemplary or punitive damages).

Radar Cross Section Analysis using Feko
Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/494544Radar technology plays an important role in both civilian and military applications. While the targets (cars, airplanes, etc.) are designed to be detected easily for civilian applications, it is the quite opposite for military applications. As such, stealth technology has become a sub-discipline of military tactics. Feko offers several solvers and post-processing scripts for RCS (Radar Cross Section) analysis and target detection, that are presented in detail with live demonstrations in this talk.

Dr. Fatima Hussain: Emerging Cyber Security Threats and Current State of Art
Bldg: ICT 516, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, CanadaAbstract: Speculating on the future of cybersecurity is inherently challenging. Cyber threat landscape is ever evolving with new attacks and so are the techniques and tools for the defense. Due to the concept of global cyber-physical continuum and digitization of data and channels, organizations are relying more on virtualization, cloud services, Gen AI and software as a service, to name a few. Insider threats, SaaS vulnerabilities, Third-Party exposure risks, Gen AI adversarial affects have gained significant ground during the last decade. Defending against cyber threats is a critical and ongoing process that requires an informed, intelligent, proactive, and multifaceted approach. It is worth mentioning that the advancement in technology is a double-edged sword where on one hand, it helps the organizations to focus on sophisticated security solutions but on the other hand it also favors the cyber attackers. In this talk we will cover the current threat landscape, related challenges and enterprise solutions.
