（1） HoloCube is an innovative optical wireless communication (OWC) system designed to enable 3D Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity using software-defined optical camera communication and the Pepper’s Ghost effect. Unlike conventional OWC systems that treat the transmitter as a point source, HoloCube employs virtual 3D hollow cubes with adaptive Spatial-Color Shift Keying (SCSK) modulation. These ...

Project 1: The process of identifying vacant, abandoned, and disinvested properties is challenging for cities that want to acquire them for redevelopment. In [a paper](https://journals.sagepub.com/eprint/4PZVYRJYYYE3UKG7IBGJ/full), my team created a human-in-the-loop machine learning (HITLML) model and apply it to a parcel-level case study in Savannah, Georgia. We found that Human-in-the-loop ML (HITLML) exceeds the standard ML ...

Aditi Verma

I am interested in how nuclear technologies specifically and complex technologies broadly—and their institutional infrastructures—can be designed in more creative, and participatory ways that are epistemically inclusive of both lay and expert perspectives. To this end, my work focuses on developing a more fundamental understanding of the early stages of the design process to improve ...

Runzi Wang

Runzi Wang is a transdisciplinary researcher who studies change in natural and urban environments across space and over time, with the objective of driving positive change with ecological planning and design strategies. Combining technologies such as big data, machine learning, remote sensing, and spatial statistics, her primary research explores how land cover change and urban ...

Sarah Mills

Sarah Mills’ research looks at how renewable energy development impacts rural communities (positively and negatively), the disparate reactions of rural landowners to wind and solar projects, and how state and local policies facilitate or hinder renewable energy deployment. Through a grant from the Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy, she also helps communities in ...
