color:#000000; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Before coming to Clemson in 2006, Melissa Smith spent 12 years as a research associate at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a holy grail for research computing run by the Department of Energy and based in East Tennessee. She researched high-energy and nuclear physics instrumentation and began collaborations with the newly formed Future Technologies Group on emerging computing architectures, among other things. Big things.<\/p>\n<p>When she arrived at Clemson, she was searching for a group capable of similar large-scale collaborations that served people in addition to working with people. She has continued to collaborate with some of the top research scientists at Oak Ridge and across the country via high-performance computing, and the results have been prolific.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wanted that same kind of opportunity on the academic level,\u201d Smith says. \u201cIt was readily apparent to me that this was the same kind of environment Clemson had and that it planned to continue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smith and her group are focused on applying \u201cdeep learning\u201d processes, which in computer terms looks like vast amounts of data, to a variety of different problems \u2014 so in the case of autonomous vehicles, researching vision and perception capabilities for a car to be able to drive without a driver.<\/p>\n<p>The work is particularly relevant for Smith, whose daughter recently secured her driver\u2019s license.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we\u2019re driving a car, it requires vision, hearing, feeling \u2014 we\u2019re making controlled decisions,\u201d she says. \u201cDo I brake? Do I accelerate? So in the field of autonomous vehicles, trying in a sense to recreate that dynamic system, it requires people from a lot of different disciplines to come together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From a technology standpoint, it requires combining various machine-learning processes. So, machine learning is the process of teaching a computer to carry out a task, rather than programming it to carry out that task step by step. But deep learning amplifies this process to human-level performance, and to do this, computers must be able to handle large amounts of data.<\/p>\n<p>In day-to-day life, deep learning might look like your Alexa virtual assistant understanding what you say and then adapting to your accent, speech patterns and usage to improve its voice recognition technology over time.<\/p>\n<p>For a self-driving car, deep learning looks like developing the vision and perception abilities that actually allow an autonomous vehicle to be autonomous. Fixed cameras use radar (radio waves) and lidar (laser or light) to measure distances and to paint a picture of a vehicle\u2019s surroundings. That video can then be processed in two different ways: one is to identify and classify objects the other is to create a map of the car\u2019s surroundings, something called segmentation.<\/p>\n<p>Every object, at every speed, in every light and weather and traffic scenario, with every road condition must be taken into consideration. Not surprisingly, a giant computer is required to process all that information, which is then used to build the neural network that will ultimately steer a car to drive autonomously.<\/p>\n<p>And then they get to figure out how to downsize it to car scale.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe think of things in stages,\u201d Smith explains: \u201cIdentify problems, come up with a solution and take steps to translate the solution.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_fourth  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_three_fourth  el_before_av_one_full  \" style='border-radius:0px; '><section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock  av_inherit_color '  style='font-size:16px; color:#af2c23; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"font-weight: lighter; line-height: 1.4em;\">Autonomous driving technology is only one of the active research projects in Melissa Smith\u2019s lab. One of Smith\u2019s chief collaborators is Alex Feltus, a professor of genetics and biochemistry and a member of the Internet 2 board, who has served in various advisory capacities for Clemson Computing and Information Technology (CCIT). Feltus trains the data-intensive computing workforce relevant to industry and academia, and he\u2019s worked with various researchers, including Smith, to attract millions of dollars for research computing at Clemson.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: lighter; line-height: 1.4em;\">In a collaboration with Washington State University and RENCI, they are designing a distributed cloud system called Scientific Data Analysis at Scale (SciDAS) to enable scientists to get information faster and use much larger datasets. Feltus and Smith secured a $2.95 million NSF grant designed to unite biologists, hydrologists, computer engineers and computer scientists to build SciDAS. Feltus\u2019 lab is engaged with multiple institutions facilitating large-scale genomics data analytics through NSF funded software and workflow engineering projects.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_full  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding first  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_one_fourth  el_before_av_one_fifth  column-top-margin\" style='border-radius:0px; '><section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock  av_inherit_color '  style='font-size:35px; color:#000000; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"line-height: 1.4em;\"><span style=\"color: #af2c23;\"><strong>A:<\/strong><\/span> Cars are already driving us more than we\u2019re driving them thanks to the kind of autonomous technology the Smith group is working on.
