Students


Jing DaiEmailAddress:
777 Atlantic Drive Atlanta, GA, 30339Research Interest:
Power system control; Echo State Network.

Current Research Work:
Indirect adaptive control of an active power filter using Echo State Network.

Gareth GuvanasenEmailAddress:
Laboratory for Neuroengineering Georgia Institute of Technology 313 Ferst Drive Atlanta, GA 30332, USAResearch Interest:
Neuronal Electrophysiology, Computational Neuroscience, Control Systems, Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision

Current Research Work:
Gareth's research involves the development of extracellular stimulation protocols to enable greater control over neuronal excitation and inhibition. At present, he is using calcium fluorescence imaging and electrical stimulation/recording techniques to construct models for living neural networks. In applying these models, he aims to close the loop around living neural networks to provide more efficacious stimuli and to investigate new neuronal learning mechanisms.

  • Activities and News

    Dr. Venayagamoorthy speaks at the Shifting Power: Smart Energy Grid 2020, an Experts' meeting - Microsoft HQ, Redmond, WA

    IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence Applications in Smart Grid, April 11-15, 2011, Paris, France

    Venayagamoorthy says “Smart grid is basically the embedding of intelligence in an electricity infrastructure to enable bidirectional power flows with traditional sources of power generation, renewable sources and energy storage”. Technologies to realize the smart grid vision are C³ – Communications, Computations and Controls.
