But, what about an app to fill the pothole on your street, or monitor the flooding risks of local streams, or raise funds to spruce up your local park? This talk will present ideas from a manuscript under preparation for a book telling the story of five civic urban platforms that have matured into new urban infrastructures in the United States in the past decade: municipal 311, city data portals, civic crowdfunding, open stormwater, and the use of crowdsourcing to analyze historical racial exclusion. Although these platforms may use similar technical ingredients as smart cities \u2013 such as data, algorithms, and interfaces \u2013 none aim at creating the automated, optimized city animating the smart city dream. Instead, they pursue a different, more digitally connected city, where technology is fostering new forms of connection, resilience, and civic vitality. The book\u2019s original case studies are developed through interviews with the technologists and public servants who created them, drawing out both the unique stories of each but also identifying generalizable lessons to inspire the next generation of urban technology. The argument of the book is that digital technology isn\u2019t only for building a utopian automated city, but instead a new type of city that fosters new forms of connections between citizens, city government, and the places they share.\n\nRobert Goodspeed, PhD, AICP, is an Associate Professor of Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Michigan\u2019s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning. He teaches and conducts research in the areas of collaborative planning, urban analytics, and scenario planning theory and methods. He is the author of the book Scenario Planning for Cities and Regions: Managing and Envisioning Uncertain Futures, over 30 articles and book chapters, and an editor of four edited volumes on urban analytics and smart cities. He is a member of the American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP), and currently serves as the board chair for Computational Urban Planning and Urban Management (CUPUM), a global society that organizes a leading biennial conference.\n\nThis event is in partnership with the Urban Tech Collective (UTC) housed at the University of Michigan\u2019s Digital Studies Institute. UTC convenes U-M faculty and students from various disciplines investigating the imaginaries, design, and use of digital technologies within urban everyday life. UTC investigates topics related to physical and digital spaces; mediated representations of urban space and urban communities; digital rights and inequalities; datafication; urban intelligences; and social change. The collective meets throughout the academic year to share research, methodologies, and best practices for the study of technology and urban life, to host speakers, and reimagine the role of urban technology scholarship, design, and policy in affecting more equitable, sustainable futures.\n\nThe DSI Research Colloquium Series is closed to DSI-affiliated faculty and students.

Their coexistence offers a promising route toward realizing Majorana zero modes and fault-tolerant quantum technologies. While studies of topological materials and electron-phonon coupling have largely relied on single particle descriptions, the role of strong electronic correlations remains unresolved. In particular, it is unclear (i) how correlations modify electron-phonon coupling [1] and lattice dynamics in determining superconducting transition temperatures and (ii) how electron-electron interactions drive topological systems beyond the single-particle limit. \n\nIn this talk, I will discuss our efforts to address these questions using parameter tuning-free embedded dynamical mean-field theory (eDMFT) [2]. By combining epitaxial thin-film growth, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), and scanning tunneling microscopy\/spectroscopy (STM\/S). Focusing on FeX (X = Se, S, Te) thin films on SrTiO\u2083 (001), we demonstrate a strong dependence of the superconducting transition temperature () on the FeX\u2084 tetrahedral bond angle, highlighting the crucial role of lattice geometry in correlated superconductivity [3]. We further present evidence for topological superconductivity and identify a distinct phase that competes with strong electronic correlations[4]. Remarkably, both the measured superconducting gap and the eDMFT-derived electron-phonon coupling exhibit a dome-shaped dependence on the tetrahedral angle [5]. I will then show how these insights can be extended toward a predictive, materials-by-design framework for topological superconductivity. Applying a multiscale framework to FeTe\u2080.\u2085Se\u2080.\u2085 and FeSe\/GaAs heterostructures, we predict multiple topological superconducting phases and identify experimentally viable materials platforms in which topology, superconductivity, and strong correlations can be engineered in concert [5,6]. Together, these results demonstrate how electronic correlations, lattice geometry, and interface engineering can be harnessed to control superconductivity and topology, providing a pathway toward the rational design of correlated topological quantum materials and future Majorana-based quantum technologies.\n\nReferences:\n[1] S.

While space and time have always been central to robotics, language introduces new opportunities and challenges in how robots represent, reason about, and interact with the physical world. In this talk, I will revisit some of the enduring challenges at the intersection of language and robotics through three interconnected dimensions: space, time, and common ground. For space, I will discuss grounding language in the 3D world, including reasoning across different spatial perspectives. For time, I will explore how language supports learning about actions, causal relationships, and past experiences to enable long-horizon planning. For common ground, I will examine how language enables humans and robots to establish, maintain, and repair shared understanding of their environment, goals, and intentions. Drawing on past and recent work, I will take stock of where we stand and reflect on the challenges and opportunities. \n\nSpeaker Bio: Joyce Chai is a Professor in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan. Her research interests span from natural language processing and embodied AI to human-AI collaboration. She is fascinated by how experience with the physical world and social interaction shape language learning and language use; and is excited about situated language processing that is sensorimotor-grounded, pragmatically-rich, and cognitively-motivated. Her recent work explores the intersection of language, vision, and action to enable situated communication with embodied agents. She is a recipient of the NSF Career Award, and multiple awards with her students (e.g., Best Long Paper Award at ACL 2010, Outstanding Paper Awards at EMNLP 2021 and ACL 2023, and First Place in the Amazon Alexa AI Simbot Challenge 2023).
