SUMMARY:Columbia Engineering Lecture Series in AI
DESCRIPTION:“Integrating Past and Present in Continual Learning” \nContinual learning aims to bridge the gap between typical human and machine-learning environments. The continual setting does not have separate training and testing phases\, and instead models are evaluated online while learning novel concepts and tasks. The most capable current AI systems struggle to learn new knowledge sequentially without forgetting old ones. Challenging research questions include how to rapidly assess a learner system’s abilities and how to most efficiently train it to improve on a sequence of tasks. I will describe recent progress on these questions\, across various research groups in ARNI\, our NSF AI Institute for Artificial and Natural Intelligence. Finally we will consider open issues and challenges in continual learning. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nRichard Zemel is the Trianthe Dakolias Professor of Engineering and Applied Science in the Computer Science Department at Columbia University. He is the Director of the NSF AI Institute for Artificial and Natural Intelligence (ARNI)\, and was the co-founder and inaugural Research Director of the Vector Institute for Artificial Intelligence. His awards include an AI Lifetime Achievement Award (CAIA) and a Pioneer of AI Award (NVIDIA). His research contributions include foundational work on systems that learn useful representations of data with little or no supervision; graph-based machine learning; and algorithms for fair and robust machine learning. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Application Deadline: Spring 2026 Start Me Up Bootcamp with Columbia Engineering
DESCRIPTION:Join a select group of entrepreneurs for a two-week hybrid program designed to build your startup. The bootcamp introduces participants to the Lean Launchpad methodology and techniques to direct customer discovery through field interviews. Participants are required to conduct at least 20 customer interviews\, attend online sessions and engage with other bootcamp teams and entrepreneurs. \nTeams “get out of the building” to learn from potential customers to determine if they are solving a real-world problem with a sizeable market opportunity. In addition to providing entrepreneurial training\, this program helps students and researchers identify new ways to apply research to solve global challenges. Teams that complete this bootcamp may be eligible to receive conference travel or stipend funding\, including eligibility to apply for the National Science Foundation’s I-Corps program. Click here to explore eligibility and expectations. \nSpring 2026 Dates \nApril 24\, 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM\nMay 1\, 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM\nMay 8\, 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM \nRolling admissions\, apply by April 10th
