ABOUT RIO YOKOTA
Rio Yokota is a Professor at the Supercomputing Research Center, Institute of Integrated Research, Institute of Science Tokyo. He also leads the AI for Science Foundation Model Research Team at RIKEN Center for Computational Science. His research interests lie at the intersection of high performance computing, machine learning, and linear algebra. He has been optimizing algorithms on GPUs since 2007, and was part of a team that received the Gordon Bell prize in 2009 using the first GPU supercomputer. More recently, he has been leading distributed training efforts on Japanese supercomputers such as ABCI, TSUBAME, and Fugaku. He is the co-developer of the Japanese LLM Swallow, and LLM-jp. He is also involved in the organization of multinational collaborations such as ADAC and TPC.
ABOUT AMANDA RANDLES
Amanda Randles is the Alfred Winborne Mordecai and Victoria Stover Mordecai Associate Professor of Biomedical Sciences and Biomedical Engineering at Duke University, where she also serves as Director of the Duke Center for Computational and Digital Health Innovation. Her research focuses on the development of patient-specific digital twin models that integrate high performance computing, machine learning, and multiscale biophysical simulations to enable proactive diagnosis and treatment of diseases ranging from cardiovascular disease to cancer. Her contributions have been recognized with the ACM Prize in Computing, the NIH Pioneer Award, the NSF CAREER Award, the ACM Grace Hopper Award, the Jack Dongarra Early Career Award, and the Sony and Nature Women in Technology Award. Randles received her Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Harvard University, an M.S. in Computer Science from Harvard, and a B.A. in Computer Science and Physics from Duke. Prior to graduate school, she worked as a software engineer at IBM on the Blue Gene supercomputing team.
