生物启发计算实验室利用来自生物学的灵感，为控制网络物理系统创造新的计算范式.  我们研究的应用范围从基于机器学习的生物医学治疗控制, 到用于控制从哺乳动物脊髓中收集高通量数据的仪器的嵌入式系统, 到高性能计算(超级计算)，用于处理来自哺乳动物脊髓的微纳米级计算机断层扫描的tb级成像.  Ultimately, the mammalian spinal cord is much smarter than a bundle of cords; the spinal cord has its own memory and fast local computation of complex motions that serve as a strong inspiration for computing architectures of the future.  我们的实验室与工程师和生理学家合作开发硬件和软件系统，共同发现更多足彩外围网站脊髓的信息，这样我们就可以利用大自然优雅、简单而复杂的设计来创造更安全的脊髓, more efficient, and more powerful computing systems.  该技术的主要应用是为脊髓损伤患者提供潜在的治疗方法, ranging from pain modulation to full control of the extremities.

量子信息和信号处理(QISP)实验室专注于几个研究和开发领域:

1. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and quantum information science: The focus of the efforts in this area is information reconciliation for both Discrete Variable (DV) and Continuous Variable (CV) QKD; semiconductor nanowire single-photon detectors, and quantum metrology.
2. Autonomous robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems: R&D focus in this area is path planning and indoor autonomous navigation using Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM); obstacle avoidance and object detection and classification using deep convolutional neural network AI techniques; sensor fusion (LiDAR, 雷达, 声纳, Stereo camera, 等.); robot to robot and robot to infrastructure and cloud communications; and system integration including control boards, motor drives, and safety systems.
3. 基于人工智能技术的地下交通基础设施自主监测与故障检测与分类.

Wireless communications and 6G systems R&D with emphasis on Drone to Ground communication system, interference cancellation, and beamforming in the mm-Wave regime.

LVC (LIGO - Virgo合作)是一个多国合作组织，由科学家组成，他们用LIGO和Virgo干涉仪探测引力波，并研究提高灵敏度和进入宇宙的方法(LIGO是激光干涉仪引力波天文台)。. Here at CSULA, 我们专注于改进作为探测器测试质量反射表面的光学涂层. 引力波很难被探测到，需要有史以来最精确的光学设备. 我们的目标是开发具有最低热噪声和最少嵌入散射体的介质(布拉格反射)镜的新材料，同时保持最高的反射率和最低的热吸收. Our research involves a collaboration with the University of Sannio in Italy, where we (two of our graduates continuing into a Ph.D.) manufacture the coatings, as well as Caltech and the University of Utah, where we measure their mechanical Q factors. The contribution of CSULA is important, we study the crystallization temperature threshold during annealing. 这项研究是与犹他大学联合进行的，并经常进行交流. 在我们小组工作的学生目前正在积累x射线衍射技术和分析的经验, Microscope analysis, automation of complex machines, 信号处理，并与优秀大学的科学家密切合作. Importantly, 花费大量时间致力于这项研究的学生成为LIGO合作的成员，并共同撰写了他们著名的天体物理学合作论文.
