Welcome to AdaComp, the Adaptive Computing Labs!In the near future, computers will no longer be treated as boxes on the desktop as we know them today. Instead, they will be embedded pervasively into our living environment, an environment that is much more versatile and variable than the desktop. To operate reliably in this new environment, computers must adapt effectively to changes, everything from a crashed network router to the sudden appearance of many users. Our goal is to develop the key technologies for building adaptive systems, systems that can respond and adapt to rapid changes in their operating environments. We will develop probabilistic representations and associated modeling and learning methods for computers to perceive, abstract, and learn in the physical world. We will also develop probabilistic reasoning methods to support effective adaptation in an automatic and systematic way. SponsorsOur research has been supported by
