Assistant Professor Han Bao, Kyoto University, "Proper Losses, Moduli of Convexity, and Surrogate Regret Bounds" 

Come chat with Serge…

Please join us for an informal discussion with Prof Serge Haroche…Serge was joint awardee of the 2012 Nobel Prize in Physics for “ground-breaking experimental methods that enable measuring and manipulation of individual quantum systems”!

Speakers:
Dr. Jani Tanzil, the Deputy Director of the St. John’s Island National Marine Laboratory and a Senior Research Fellow at the Tropical Marine Science Institute (TMSI), National University of Singapore
Dr. Lionel Ng, Research Fellow at TMSI, National University of Singapore
Mr. Ow Yong Wei Long, Research Assistant with the Coral Team at TMSI, National University of Singapore

Hosted by: Professor Timothy Ravasi, OIST Marine Climate Change Unit

This talk will a broad overview of marine science research conducted in Singapore, with a focus on coral reef ecology and restoration efforts. This talk will also share more about Singapore’s only offshore marine research facility, the St. John’s Island National Marine Laboratory (SJINML), as a research infrastructure open to all marine science researchers, both local and international (https://sjinml.nus.edu.sg/).

Speaker: Dr. Davide Spatafora, Shimoda Marine Research Centre (SMRC), Tsukuba University, Shimoda City, Shizuoka, Japan

Hosted by: Professor Timothy Ravasi, OIST Marine Climate Change Unit

Abstract: Natural analogues are characterized by temporal and spatial environmental fluctuations and are home to pre-adapted ‘biodiversity’ (e.g., organisms chronically exposed to high CO₂ conditions). Therefore, these spots provide a unique opportunity to investigate the ability of the fish to acclimate or adapt to future ocean conditions thus informing us about how they may adjust in a future world.

Aivia Workshop: Image Analysis Software

Open Poster Session (~20 posters by ERATO members and ~10 posters by OIST units)

Prof Tim Taminiau from QuTech in Delft, Netherlands, is an experimentalists who studies the use of defects in diamond continaing electron and nuclear spins for quantum technology. In this talk he will  discuss recent progress in controlling such electron-nuclear spin systems for quantum networks and for distributed quantum computations and simulations.
