Milestones and highlights from our lab members
Congratulations
Amir Mohammadi and Jarin Ritu are now Ph.D. candidates
Both passed their preliminary exams. Amir’s research makes fine-tuning foundation models for passive sonar more efficient, and Jarin’s helps smaller models keep fine texture detail in sound classification and cell microscopy.
