Abstract

I introduced a large controlled dataset for detecting nonlinearities in vibrating structures directly from raw time-series signals, together with a post-hoc interpretability pipeline based on Integrated Gradients, DeepLIFT, GradientSHAP, and DeepSHAP, as well as new quantitative metrics for testing attribution fidelity.

IAIFI 2025 Summer School & Workshop — Harvard University

A Long Overdue Post

This summer, I had the incredible opportunity to participate in the NSF AI Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Fundamental Interactions (IAIFI) Summer School and Workshop at Harvard University — an experience that was as intense as it was inspiring.

Summer School

The summer school (August 4–8, 2025) was a deep dive into cutting-edge topics at the intersection of AI and physics, with lectures from world-class researchers:

Honoured and Inspired: Meeting the Next Generation of STEM Trailblazers

During my trip to Palestine in May 2025, a few remarkable students reached out to ask if I would be willing to give some talks. What followed became one of the most rewarding and energizing experiences of my professional life.

Over just a few days, I had the absolute honour — and joy — of meeting some of the most inspiring young minds I’ve encountered. From brilliant scientists to future engineers, from passionate high schoolers to rising academic leaders, the experience left me both humbled and filled with hope.

Wrapping up WCCM 2024 in Vancouver, Canada

The World Congress in Computational Mechanics (WCCM) 2024 was an incredible experience filled with groundbreaking research and inspiring discussions.

Short Course — Scientific Machine Learning

I had the privilege of assisting Dr. Gianmarco Mengaldo in his short course titled “Scientific Machine Learning: Application to Computational Mechanics.” Dr. Mengaldo explored the various applications of interpretable AI in engineering and weather, providing invaluable insights.

Plenary Sessions

I was particularly delighted to attend several impactful plenaries, including:
