USC Probability Statistics Seminar Talk of General Interest
Fri, Sep 11, 2020 @ 03:30 PM - 04:30 PM

Speaker: Katherine Bouman , Caltech
Talk Title: Capturing the First Image of a Black Hole and Designing the Future of Black Hole Imaging
Abstract: The Math Department is having a talk on Friday, September 11 at 330PM PST and invites the CS community to attend.
This talk will present the methods and procedures used to produce the first image of a black hole from the Event Horizon Telescope, as well as discuss future developments for black hole imaging. It had been theorized for decades that a black hole would leave a "shadow" on a background of hot gas. Taking a picture of this black hole shadow would help to address a number of important scientific questions, both on the nature of black holes and the validity of general relativity. Unfortunately, due to its small size, traditional imaging approaches require an Earth-sized radio telescope. In this talk, I discuss techniques the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration has developed to photograph a black hole using the Event Horizon Telescope, a network of telescopes scattered across the globe. Imaging a black hole's structure with this computational telescope required us to reconstruct images from sparse measurements, heavily corrupted by atmospheric error. The talk will also discuss future developments, including new imaging techniques and how we are developing machine learning methods to help design future telescope arrays.

Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Paiam Moghaddam, USC Games Student Speaker
Talk Title: Solid Systems and Such
Abstract: MEGA is proud to present Solid Systems and Such, a discussion led by student speaker Paiam Moghaddam! Join us on Zoom this Friday, September 11th at 5:00 PM PST to learn more about making solid systems for games and how they can help organize code structures and develop better game architecture. If you're interested in learning about system-based programming in game development, this presentation is for you!
Paiam Moghaddam is currently a senior at USC majoring in Computer Science (Games). Aside from being a Lead Engineer for Pre-production at Drop Bears LLC, Moghaddam also has experience working on several Advanced Game Projects (AGPs) here at USC such as AGP End of the Line. Have any questions for Paiam? Stick around after the presentation for a quick Q&A session!
