DESCRIPTION:The U of T Student Chapter of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation
  Society (AP-S) invites you to the following talk of our 2020-2021 seminar
  series:\n\n&quot;Inverse Electromagnetics Design with Physics-Driven Neural Ne
 tworks\,&quot; presented by Jonathan A. Fan from Stanford University\, on Monda
 y\, Jan. 11\, 2021\, 4-5 PM ET.\n\nAbstract: In this talk\, Prof. Fan will
  present new algorithmic approaches to the inverse design of freeform elec
 tromagnetic devices. His focus will be on an optimization strategy based o
 n physics-driven neural networks\, termed GLOnets\, in which the global op
 timization process is reframed as the training of a generative neural netw
 ork. Prof. Fan will discuss how this method incorporates physics and physi
 cal constraints through the interfacing of Maxwell’s equations with mach
 ine learning\, and he will frame the discussion around examples of metasur
 faces and thin-film stacks operating near physical design limits. These id
 eas will help set the stage for hybrid physics- and data-driven approaches
  to be used in defining the next frontier of electromagnetics engineering.
 \n\nBio: Jonathan Fan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Elect
 rical Engineering at Stanford University\, where he is researching new des
 ign methodologies and materials approaches to nanophotonic systems. He rec
 eived his bachelor’s degree with highest honors from Princeton Universit
 y and his doctorate from Harvard University. He is the recipient of the Ai
 r Force Young Investigator Award\, Sloan Foundation Fellowship in Physics\
 , Packard Foundation Fellowship\, and the Presidential Early Career Award 
 for Scientists and Engineers.\n\nDate: Monday\, Jan.11\, 2021\n\nTime: 4:0
