Results "undermine the universality of scale-free networks and reveal that real-world networks exhibit a rich structural diversity that will likely require new ideas and mechanisms to explain,” according to CU Boulder's Anna Broido and Aaron Clauset.

Boulder-based Circadence Corporation and MD5, a Department of Defense national security technology program, brought the cyberBUFFS hackathon to the College of Engineering and Applied Science.

PhD students Samuel Way and Allison Morgan, along with assistant professors Aaron Clauset and Dan Larremore, publish new findings on faculty career trajectories.

They bring expertise in everything from cybersecurity and human-computer interaction, to pediatric health care practices and honeybee behavior.

"I arrived to discover that all the legends about Google’s offices are true – the ball pits, bowling alleys, climbing gyms, swag and especially the food."

Could data science help to solve America’s opioid crisis? Or better diagnose cancer and heart problems? Those are just some of the questions the Colorado Data Science Team (CODATA) wants to tackle as the group moves into its second year. The group started in 2016 as a way to give...

"The teams that engineer creative solutions come from diverse backgrounds and have different skills. They see different needs. The combination of talents make for great results. It’s a privilege to be part of a campaign that highlights diversity and innovation."

Self-driving cars may be in their infancy, but they’re already better drivers than humans in many ways, says Chris Heckman, an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science. They don’t become overconfident, they are always focused and they’re much better at performing driving maneuvers consistently. But he also thinks they haven’t truly been put to the test.

Dan Szafir, a professor in the Department of Computer Science and ATLAS Institute, envisions a day when robots can be found making beds at understaffed nursing homes, drones fly over fields providing precise measurements of crop yields, and flying automatons hover around the International Space Station, handling mundane chores so astronauts can tendto more important tasks.

In the CS department, Shaun Kane will use his award to design more user-friendly touchscreen interfaces for the blind, while Jordan Boyd-Graber will explore human-computer cooperation with his team's quiz bowl robot.
