Engineering Out Loud

The age of Big Data and cloud computing has created greater demand for advanced cryptography. To store data on the cloud safely it must be encrypted; in order to use the data it needs to be decrypted, at which point it becomes vulnerable to attacks. Professors Mike Rosulek and Attila Yavuz are finding new ways to perform operations on encrypted data without leaking critical information. Professor...

Xiaoli Fern , associate professor in computer science, explains how she and her team are using machine learning and bird song recordings to help biologists track bird populations. Plus, Geoff Hollinger , assistant professor of mechanical engineering, is teaching underwater robots to use human preferences to take on risk as they complete their scientific missions. https://engineering.oregonstate.ed...

What is data science and engineering? To kick off the podcast season on this topic,  Tom Dietterich , distinguished professor of computer science, explains what it is, how it is related to Big Data, and shares his thoughts on the pros and cons. https://engineering.oregonstate.edu/season-1-data-science-and-engineering/pros-and-cons-s1e1
