Current SPPRL Members
| Robert Capo received his BSc from Rowan in ECE (2013), and will be working on active learning in nonstationary environments. He already has an IJCNN publication under for his undergraduate work on active learning version of COMPOSE. Rob will be teaching Freshman Clinic as a teaching fellow. |
|
| Charlotte Cecere received her BSc in ECE from Rowan in ECE (2013). She is the recipient of numerous awards for her academic achievements as well as outreach efforts. Most recently, she served as the president of Rowan’s IEEE Chapter. She will be working on early diagnosis of AD, while teaching Digital 1 as a teaching fellow. |
|
| Anthony Samaritano received his BSc in ECE from Rowan (2012). A true embedded systems guru, Tony even built his own quadrocopter. He is working on developing biologically inspired computational models based on our understanding of the nervous system. | |
| William Jones received his BSc in ECE from Rowan (2012). He is fascinated by all things computers, especially vintage ones. He is currently working on evaluating a comprehensive set of biomarkers for AD diagnosis. |
|
| Karl Dyer received his BSc in ME from Rowan (2010). A truly talented engineer, problem solver, master programmer and yes, a marathon runner, Karl has ten talents on his ten fingers. He is the mastermind behind the COMPOSE algorithm. |
