Dr. Sandip Ray, Warren B. Nelms Endowed Professor, has received a National Science Foundation (NSF) research award to develop new approaches for identifying security vulnerabilities earlier in the design of vehicular systems. “The goal of the project is to make connected and autonomous vehicles safer and more secure,” said Dr. Ray. “Modern vehicles rely on […]

Traditional autism screening often relies on structured questionnaires or clinical observation, which can sometimes delay early identification. A paper by Sumaiya Afroz Mila, Jeba Maliha, Md Rafiul Kabir, Ankan Ghosh, and Sandip Ray introduces a different approach, utilizing large language models (LLMs) to make early screening more intuitive and accessible. “ScreeningPaL: LLM-NLP Enabled Early Autism […]

Through the NASA-funded TRANSCEND project, a collaborative team of researchers is working to understand the safety and trustworthiness of autonomous systems. But the research is just the beginning. The next step is sharing this knowledge to help establish a future workforce trained in artificial intelligence (AI) safety. “The overall idea is that safe AI is […]

Dr. Sandip Ray, professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, has received a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to fund the project, “Collaborative Research: CSR: Small: SOCRATES: Post-Silicon Validation of Hardware-Software Interactions.” Modern microelectronic computer chips depend on sophisticated software that must operate seamlessly with hardware when in the hands of the consumer. […]

Two highly-deserving leaders of the Warren B. Nelms Institute for the Connected World were awarded endowed professorships in recognition of their research accomplishments and contributions to the institute. Dr. My T. Thai, Associate Director, and Dr. Sandip Ray, Director of Industry Programs, have been making significant contributions to the Warren B. Nelms Institute since it’s […]

In this Tech Tuesday video for WCJB TV20, UF Innovate’s Bethany Gaffey interviews Dr. Sandip Ray about the VETS-HASTE program, which supports local veterans by training them in hardware security. This innovative initiative provides veterans with the tools to transition into civilian life by training them in the security of silicon chips and devices—skills that are […]

UF teaching veterans how to hack In May, 11 U.S. veterans gathered at the University of Florida to learn how to hack into computer systems. With the intensity and persistence of a shady cyber-criminal, the Florida veterans learned – through trial and much error – how to invade protected computer networks and become serious cyber-security […]

Are you looking for a summer undergraduate research internship? REU: Secure, Accessible, and Sustainable Transportation (SAST) Recent years are seeing a transformative and rapid push towards autonomy in the transportation systems, driven by explosive infusion of electronics, sensors, and software. Autonomous transportation holds out the promise of dramatically improving transportation system by reducing and eventually […]

A new project led by Warren B. Nelms Institute researchers has received $1 million in funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Experiential Learning for Emerging and Novel Technologies (ExLENT) Program. The project, titled “Pivots: VETS-HASTE: Veterans SkillBridge through Industry based Hardware Security Training and Education,” is led by Principal Investigator Dr. Wanli Xing (College […]

This past summer, nine undergraduate students visiting from institutions around the country spent 10 weeks conducting research at the University of Florida (UF) on the topic of Secure, Accessible, and Sustainable Transportation (SAST). Through an NSF Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site grant, the undergraduate students worked alongside UF faculty and graduate student researchers at […]
