Independently curated · UnclaimedChristopher Musco Research Group
New York University (NYU)Christopher Musco · Institute Associate Professor, Computer Science and Engineering
What algorithmic strategies let large datasets be processed with provable speed and accuracy? The group develops randomized linear-algebra sketching methods to compress matrices and accelerate large-scale machine learning while preserving provable error bounds. The group designs streaming and sketching algorithms that process high-rate data with sublinear memory, enabling one-pass summaries for statistical estimation. Researchers analyze optimization and numerical linear algebra mechanisms to improve solver convergence and stability for large problems encountered in data science. The team implements algorithmic prototypes and benchmarks to evaluate tradeoffs between runtime, memory, and theoretical guarantees.
Independently curated · UnclaimedEdwin Gerber Research Group
New York University (NYU)Edwin Gerber · Professor of Mathematics and Atmosphere/Ocean Science
How does natural atmospheric variability inform climate response to anthropogenic forcing? The group builds simplified, idealized atmospheric models to bridge theory and comprehensive Earth System simulations and to analyze stratosphere–troposphere coupling. Researchers develop idealized models of the stratosphere-troposphere system to study the upper atmosphere’s role in surface climate. The lab uses theoretical analysis and comparisons with comprehensive model simulations to quantify responses to stratospheric ozone and greenhouse gas changes. The team applies dynamical systems and geophysical fluid dynamics tools to improve mechanistic understanding and predictive ability of climate model behavior.
Independently curated · UnclaimedMarsha Berger Research Group
New York University (NYU)Marsha Berger · Silver Professor of Computer Science and Mathematics
How can adaptive discretization and parallel computing efficiently resolve complex fluid dynamics across scales? The group develops adaptive mesh and solution-refinement techniques for computational fluid dynamics to capture multiscale flow features. Researchers design and analyze adaptive numerical methods that reduce discretization error while concentrating computational effort where needed. The team implements parallel scientific computing frameworks and domain-decomposition strategies to scale adaptive solvers on high-performance systems. They study algorithmic mechanisms that combine adaptivity with parallelization to accelerate convergence and enable large-scale CFD simulations.
Independently curated · UnclaimedRamesh Karri Research Group
New York University (NYU)Ramesh Karri · Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering
Can hardware and chip-design workflows be made resilient to malicious modifications introduced during design or by AI assistance? The group studies trustworthy hardware and develops security-aware CAD, verification, and metrics to detect and prevent hardware Trojans and other tampering. Researchers ran an AI Hardware Attack Challenge and analyzed how large language models can be used to insert exploitable hardware modifications, documenting attack mechanisms and mitigations. The team investigates AI-orchestrated malware and defenses, exemplified by research on autonomous LLM-orchestrated ransomware prototypes. They also co-lead platform efforts to accelerate privacy-preserving cryptographic hardware design and shared chiplet libraries to improve secure hardware prototyping.
