SUMMARY:Beyond the Pressure to Thrive: Teachings from the Medicine Basket with Len Pierre
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to thrive in a world that so often asks us to do more\, carry more and become more? \nIn this year’s Thrive keynote\, Len Pierre invites us to rethink how we understand mental health\, wellbeing and what it means to thrive. \nDrawing on Indigenous ways of knowing and Coast Salish teachings\, Len will explore wellbeing not as an individual achievement\, but as something nurtured through relationship\, reciprocity\, connection\, culture\, and community. \nRegister today

SUMMARY:Dissertation Defence: Trusted Execution Environments for Improving Blockchain Performance
DESCRIPTION:Xiaoqing Wen\, supervised by Dr. Chen Feng\, will defend their dissertation titled “Trusted Execution Environments for Improving Blockchain Performance” in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical Engineering. \nAn abstract for Xiaoqing Wen’s dissertation is included below. \nExaminations are open to all members of the campus community as well as the general public.  Please email chen.feng@ubc.ca to receive the Zoom link for this exam. \nAbstract\nBlockchain systems have become key infrastructure for decentralized applications\, yet their performance is often constrained by the overhead of replication\, coordination\, and on-chain verification. Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) provide hardware-protected execution with integrity and remote attestation. These properties make it possible to enforce non-equivoca-tion\, produce attestable execution results\, and reduce the need for large quorums or heavyweight cryptographic proofs\, thereby offering a promising path to improving blockchain performance. \nThis thesis investigates how TEEs can be used to improve blockchain performance across the consensus and execution layers. Guided by the blockchain stack\, we study three representative scenarios\, each targeting a distinct performance bottleneck that TEE properties can address under realistic deployment assumptions. \nFirst\, at the consensus layer\, we study TEE-assisted BFT consensus in hybrid deployment systems\, where only a subset of nodes are equipped with TEEs. We analyze the theoretical fault-tolerance limits in this setting and design protocols that exploit TEE non-equivocation to reduce communication overhead and confirmation latency whenever TEEs are available\, while remaining correct under arbitrary mixes of TEE-enabled and non-TEE nodes. Second\, still at the consensus layer\, we examine TEE-assisted BFT sharding\, where TEE-enforced non-equivocation and attestable execution increase the fault tolerance of each shard. This enables smaller shard sizes without compromising safety\, increasing parallelism and overall throughput. Third\, at the execution layer\, we explore TEE-assisted rollups\, in which transactions are executed off-chain inside secure enclaves and verified on-chain through enclave-signed attestations. This approach reduces on-chain verification overhead relative to proof-based or delay-based alternatives\, improving throughput and withdrawal latency. \nTogether\, these results demonstrate that TEEs can improve blockchain performance by resolving layer-specific bottlenecks in coordination and verification. The three studies collectively provide a structured understanding of how to deploy TEE assistance across consensus and execution.

SUMMARY:Thesis Defence: Defining\, Measuring\, and Supervising Latent Thought Representations in Large Language Models
DESCRIPTION:Fahd Seddik\, supervised by Dr. Fatemeh Fard\, will defend their thesis titled “Defining\, Measuring\, and Supervising Latent Thought Representations in Large Language Models” in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Science. \nAn abstract and overview for Fahd Seddik’s thesis is included below. \nDefences are open to all members of the campus community as well as the general public. Registration is not required for in-person defences. \nAbstract\nLarge Language Models (LLMs) increasingly reason in continuous latent space\, where vectors called thought representations take the place of written chain-of-thought steps. Latent reasoning methods construct these vectors as recurrent hidden states or mixtures of token embeddings\, yet no method states the requirements on a thought representation. These methods are compared through downstream task accuracy\, which may remain unchanged while the model bypasses its thought representation. First\, we derive a provably consistent\, independent\, and complete set of four functional properties of a thought representation\, namely causality\, minimality\, separability\, and stability. Next\, we define one measure per property\, independent of downstream task accuracy\, to audit Soft Thinking\, Latent Thinking\, and hidden states on BIG-Bench Extra Hard. Every audited family scores below the input embedding on at least one measure. The audited thought representations separate one task from another but collapse the questions of a single task\, a failure that downstream task accuracy does not reveal. Since training supervises only the Cross-Entropy (CE) of the final answer\, four failures of this objective lower the probability of the correct answer. We therefore introduce Representation-Supervised Thoughts (REST)\, which adds one differentiable loss term per property to the CE\, while the architecture and the inference procedure remain unchanged. We evaluate REST in single-agent and multi-agent latent recursive systems on seven benchmarks in mathematics\, science\, medicine\, and code generation. REST increases accuracy over CE-only training across agent settings and model sizes. Latent recursive systems should thus supervise the thought representation in addition to the final answer. REST also exceeds the accuracy of two loss terms that supervise the thought representation against the reasoning text\, at a lower token overhead. Compared with CE-only training\, the thought representations that REST trains decode to relatively more content of the output of the generating agent\, which makes latent communication between agents more transparent to human understanding. Therefore\, the four properties\, their measures\, and REST provide future latent reasoning methods with a common basis for design\, comparison\, and training.

SUMMARY:Linear Regression in R (Part 5): Interaction Terms and Hierarchical Linear Models
DESCRIPTION:Linear regression is often one of the first statistical models researchers encounter\, but using it well involves much more than drawing a straight line. Researchers must understand what the model is estimating\, whether its assumptions are reasonable\, and how the results relate to the original research question. \nThis series introduces linear regression as a framework for studying relationships\, testing hypotheses\, and making predictions. Participants will progress from simple and multiple linear regression to model interpretation\, prediction\, interaction effects\, hierarchical models\, and penalized regression. Emphasis is placed on understanding model assumptions\, evaluating model fit and predictive performance\, and communicating results without overstating what the model can establish. \nAll workshops will use R and RStudio\, so some experience with R or another programming language is encouraged but not required. See the R Fundamentals for Data Analysis for an introduction to R and RStudio. Attendees without prior experience are encouraged to review this content. No prior knowledge of linear regression is required\, and each workshop will introduce the background needed for that session. \nPredicting from GLMs and GAMs (workshop five of six): Predictions from generalized models depend on the outcome distribution\, the link function\, and the scale on which results are reported. Participants will generate predictions and uncertainty intervals from GLMs and GAMs\, evaluate performance on new data\, and choose measures suited to continuous\, binary\, or count outcomes. \nREGISTER FOR INDIVIDUAL WORKSHOP \nRegister for all workshops in the series \nFor a complete list of upcoming CSC Workshops\, please visit our workshops page. \nThis workshop qualifies for the Scholarly Research\, Writing\, and Publishing Credential offered through the College of Graduate Studies. \nQuestions? Contact the Centre for Scholarly Communication at csc.ok@ubc.ca.
