Data and Vision Seminar Series

The Data and Vision Seminar is a weekly informal seminar and discussion. It provides an opportunity for interested faculty members and their students to discuss research closely related to data mining, data processing, visualization, computer vision, pattern recognition, and multimedia databases. Possible applications include image and video processing, bioinformatics (e.g., microarray analysis, genome signal processing), medical databases and management, and security and surveillance related fields such as biometrics, video surveillance, and database security.

All are welcome to attend the Data and Vision Seminar. To add your email to our list or to schedule a talk, please send an email to Qi Tian at qitian@cs.utsa.edu.

Further information, as well as the upcoming schedule, can be found at:
http://www.cs.utsa.edu/~qitian/seminar.html


Bioinformatics Seminar Series

The Computer Science Department's Human Genome Lab meets weekly on Tuesday at noon in the Computer Science Conference Room (SB 4.01.20). Anyone is welcome to attend to hear the group's discussion on current techniques and topics. Each week, the group presents one or two current papers in the field of bioinformatics. The lab's presentation schedule can be found at:

Real-time and Power Aware Multimedia Seminar Series

With the increased performance of the modern computing systems, their power consumption has increased dramatically. For the mobile/handheld computing devices (such as PDA, cell phone and digital camera), which are generally battery powered and have limited energy budget, saving power consumption in ordinary operations could extend their operation time. Thinking how wonderful it will be if you only need re-charge your PDA or cell phone once a month! Considering the ever-increasing popularity of mobile devices, which incorporate more and more multimedia functionalities, in this study group, we focus on discussion of the underlying theories and power management schemes for multimedia applications/systems.

This seminar is scheduled every Friday at 11am in CS conference room (SB 04.01.20). All are welcome to attend this Seminar. To add your email to our list or to schedule a talk, please send an email to Dakai Zhu at dzhu@cs.utsa.edu. Upcoming schedule and further information can be found at:

Secure Software Systems Seminar Series

This seminar series will discuss and present topics in the areas of secure software assurance, including software process models, methods, and tools for engineering secure software systems, and system support for dependable software. The SSS seminar meets every Friday 1:30-3pm in the CS conference room, and their upcoming schedule can be found at http://www.cs.utsa.edu/~niu/sss/.
