ESD Research Seminar by Themis Gouleakis – Online algorithms are traditionally analysed in adversarial worst-case settings, leading to guarantees that often fail to capture practical performance. The emerging framework of learning-augmented algorithms integrates machine-learned predictions into online decision making while preserving rigorous guarantees.

ISTD COIL Seminar by Thenmugilan Gandhy – This talk is about the decisions that don’t make it into design case studies.

ISTD COIL Seminar by Emily Cheung – In this session, Emily will share 10 lessons from her journey – from observing users behind one-way mirrors to designing AI-powered ventures.

ISTD COIL Seminar by Bill Cai – This talk explores how techniques like chain-of-thought reasoning, self-consistency, and iterative refinement unlock new capabilities by investing compute during inference rather than training alone.

The Festival of Funny Machines invites creators, tinkerers, and innovators of all ages to submit your funny machine concepts! Let’s design a world of laughter and wonder together!

The IEEE MRS 2025 will be held on 4-5 Dec 2025 at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD).

ISTD COIL Seminar by Fernanders Koak – In this 45-minute session, Lead Concept Artist Fernanders Koak will introduce the fundamentals of Design Thinking from identifying player needs, defining problems, and ideating gameplay mechanics, to rapid prototyping and creative iteration.

The Audio, Music, and AI (AMAAI) Lab at ISTD proudly presents its inaugural workshop on Emerging AI Technologies for Music (EAIM 2026), to be held as part of the AAAI-26 Conference at Singapore EXPO from 26 to 27 January 2026.
