About this Seminar
Biography:
Professor Shih is in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at Rutgers University and a member of the New High Energy Theory Center (NHETC). His primary research focus is theoretical particle physics: understanding the nature of the Universe at the most fundamental level. Currently, he is working on applications of machine learning and artificial intelligence to data from both colliders and astronomy. This will help us better understand long-standing questions in fundamental physics, such as “What is the dark matter?” and “Where is the new physics?”
In the past, he has also worked on a diverse array of topics, from string theory and quantum gravity to model building and phenomenology. (Source)
