Floods don’t wait—and now, thanks to FIU researchers, water managers won’t have to either. In a groundbreaking leap for climate resilience, FIU has unveiled an AI-powered flood model capable of simulating worst-case scenarios in seconds. Designed to help Florida’s...
What looked like a swarm of 100-pound robots nearly colliding in the lake behind FIU’s Green Library was actually a glimpse into the future of marine environmental monitoring. Led by Ph.D. graduate Paulo Padrão, FIU researchers are pushing the boundaries of autonomous...
Artificial intelligence is transforming everything—from how we drive to how we diagnose disease. But what happens when the data feeding these systems is deliberately corrupted? Welcome to the world of data poisoning. In a recent article from FIU News, KFSCIS...
When tomorrow’s hackers bring quantum power, today’s video encryption might crumble—but FIU researchers have a solution. Their pioneering quantum-safe video encryption uses true quantum randomness to scramble each video frame, making them appear as noise to anyone...
Maryna Veksler’s journey begins with sheer persistence—a Ukrainian teen wooed to FIU by a determined tennis coach despite her limited English and unfamiliarity with U.S. academics. What started as a singular focus on going pro in tennis soon intersected with coding...
Florida International University scientists have deployed a fleet of autonomous surface vessels and sensor‑equipped buoys to monitor and protect Biscayne Bay after a dramatic fish kill in the summer of 2020, which revealed the bay's vulnerability to high water...
Florida International University cybersecurity researchers warn that AI's insatiable demand for data makes it vulnerable to subtle “data poisoning” attacks, where bad actors inject misleading or false examples into training sets to distort AI behavior in dangerous...
Florida International University computer scientists, led by Distinguished University Professor Dr. S. S. Iyengar, have developed a new algorithm designed to protect video content from the looming threat of quantum hacking. The algorithm, created in collaboration with...
KFSCIS Associate Professor Fahad Saeed received the prestigious National Institute of Health (NIH) Maximizing Investigators' Research Award (MIRA) award. The US$ 1.75 million award is a single-PI grant that will fund Dr. Saeed and his Lab for the next 5 years. The...
Securing the nation's scientific data, workflows, and infrastructure is an area of significant concern for our nation's continued economic success. Dr. Ruimin Sun recently received a new National Science Foundation cybersecurity innovation for cyberinfrastructure...
