Night vision is typically monotone--everything the wearer can see is colored in the same hue, which is mostly shades of green. But by using varying wavelengths of infrared light and a relatively simple AI algorithm, scientists from the University of California, Irvine have been able to bring back some color into these desaturated images. Their findings are published in the journal PLOS ONE this week. Light in the visible spectrum, similar to an FM radio, consists of many different frequencies. Both light and radio are part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Anika Madan, a senior at Sunny Hills High in Fullerton, had a loaded school resume when she applied to six University of California campuses for admission this fall: a 4.6 GPA, 11 college-level courses, student leadership positions and community service building robotic hands for people with disabilities. She was accepted to UC campuses at Irvine, Riverside and Santa Barbara -- but wait-listed at Berkeley, Davis and San Diego. Once again she is on edge -- along with tens of thousands of others -- as yet another nail-biting phase of a record-breaking UC admission season begins this week. Campuses are diving into their massive waitlists, selecting students to fill the seats of those who turned down UC offers by the May 1 college decision day. For the waitlisted, this next round is sparking more anxiety, frustration and even defiance as they try to decide whether to hold out for an offer from a favored campus or just move on.

As an IBM master inventor, professor at UC Irvine, and author of "Own the A.I. Revolution: Unlock Your Artificial Intelligence Strategy to Disrupt Your Competition," Sahota is also a lead artificial intelligence adviser to the United Nations and is helping find ways for AI to provide solutions and prevent future pandemics. Even now, AI is being used to create systems that can impact how treatments for COVID-19 are used. One such AI tool was developed at UC Irvine last year to help predict the probability of patients needing ICU care. This involved collecting the data of patients to get common symptoms of the coronavirus as well as how to accelerate treatment and care options. Other examples include AI-powered walking sticks for the blind, tools to help those who can't speak, and health care apps that use a cell phone to detect diabetes, tuberculosis and skin diseases through the camera and microphone.

Collectively called Qualoscopy, the applications are designed to assist gastroenterologists in real-time. According to the Center for Disease Control, about 15 million colonoscopies were performed in the United States alone in 2012.

Anima Anandkumar pioneered the research of finding global optimal in non-convex problems, a big pain point in machine learning. Our protagonist for this week's Techie Tuesdays, Anima is an academician who represents the best of both worlds--industry and academia. She has contributed significantly to major AI and ML projects at Amazon. This is a treat for all machine learning enthusiasts. In my two hours of conversation with Anima Anandkumar, Principal Scientist at Amazon Web Services, I was injected with the most potent dose of technical knowledge. Not that I didn't expect it while talking to an ex-faculty of UC Irvine (soon to be an endowed professor at Caltech), known for her research on non-convex problems (in deep learning). Our Techie Tuesdays protagonist of the week, Anima has worked towards establishing a strong collaboration between academia and industry. She follows an unconventional style of teaching, the one she would have loved as a student.

The new team at UC Irvine is suiting up for battle in a recently furnished arena on campus, where members will gear up with headphones, a keyboard and mouse. UC Irvine this month opened its e-sports arena, which is equipped with 80 computers and will be frequented by the school's new team competing in the "League of Legends" game. E-sports, or electronic sports, are multiplayer video game experiences and competitions in which players play against one another through a digital platform. "When people like to watch professional basketball or football, people also want to watch the best gamers in the world play against the other best gamers in the world," said Jesse Wang, president of UC Irvine's Assn. of Gamers, a student group. In a collective effort from the association, the school's admissions department, Student Affairs and UC Irvine's e-sports acting Director Mark Deppe, the university was able to recruit five of the team's players, who are receiving about 15,000 worth of scholarships.

You can get a pretty good idea of a country's wealth by seeing how much it shines at night -- just compare the intense brightness of China and South Korea to the dark mass of North Korea that's sandwiched between them. But nighttime lights don't tell you which neighborhoods or villages within a large region are merely poor and which are home to people living in abject poverty. That's the level of detail policymakers need when they decide where to deploy their economic development programs. You could get that detail by sending legions of survey-takers into crowded slums and sparsely populated rural areas. But that would be hugely time-consuming and cost tens of millions of dollars or more.
