Second Prize in 2019 International Collegiate Competition for Brain-Inspired Computing

ECE post-graduate student won the second prize in 2019 International Collegiate Competition for Brain-Inspired Computing.

The joint team from Human Language Technology Laboratory (NUS), and Multimedia and Interactive Computing Laboratory (NTU) emerged as one of the Second Prize winners in the 2019 International Collegiate Competition for Brain-Inspired Computing. The winning team is led by post-graduate student Wu Jibin supervised by Prof Li Haizhou from ECE Department.

They received a certificate, as well as prize money of RMB 60,000. The award recognises the latest technology breakthrough in the learning algorithm for biologically plausible spiking neural networks. The highlight of the research includes the successful neuromorphic implementation of several large-scale pattern recognition tasks, such as image classification, automatic speech recognition and speech separation.

More than 200 international teams participated in the competition held on the 19^th and 20^th October 2019 in Tsinghua University, China. The participating entries covered hardware, software, and applications in the area of brain-inspired computing for artificial general intelligence.

First demonstration of a secure quantum network with untrusted quantum devices

An international team comprising researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and LMU Munich (LMU) have, for the first time, successfully demonstrated a new form of quantum key distribution (QKD) that is secure even if the users are not privy to the underlying quantum hardware. The work, paving the way for a more secure
