i am happy to announce that, effective august 25, the number of women full professors in my department will increase by 50%. i am afraid some of the external letter writers will still be calling me a "rising star" in my retirement memoir. jokes aside, thanks everyone for the support.

A little bit of interesting history: in late 60s, early 70s, two PhD programs were established at the University of Michigan: computing and communication sciences (CCS) in LSA and computer, information, and control engineering (CICE) in CoE.

I was taking uber from campus to home the other day and it was overly expensive. If instead I put the grocery store almost across my place as the destination, the price dropped to a half. Was it a discount for the grocery store or overcharging me since it learned my commute patterns?

Willems’ behavioral system theory is an amazing way to think about systems in an abstract and unified manner. I have found myself thinking about it in very different contexts, from model reduction, to learning, to abstractions.
