  Design and Performance Analysis of Silicon Photonic Waveguides for High-Speed Optical Communication

  By Sonali Gawali, Shravani Chavan, Sakshi Bhaganagare, Vaibhav Godase

  Abstract: The exponential growth of data traffic in data centers and high-performance computing systems necessitates a paradigm shift from conventional electrical interconnects to high- speed, low-power on-chip optical interconnects. Silicon Photonics (SiP) is the leading platform for this transition due to its compatibility with CMOS manufacturing and the high- index contrast between silicon (Si) and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ). This paper details the design, simulation, and comprehensive performance analysis of …

  Mood Mate: A Solid-State Edge-AI System for Real-Time Facial Emotion Recognition

  By Sakshi Bhaganagare, Shravani Chavan, Sonali Gavali, Vaibhav Godase

  Abstract: Recent progress in solid-state electronics and embedded vision systems has enabled real-time emotion-aware applications at the edge. This paper presents MoodMate, a solid-state edge-AI framework for real-time facial emotion recognition using camera-based sensing and embedded processing. The proposed system integrates a solid-state image sensor with an AI- driven emotion classification pipeline optimized for low-latency and resource-constrained environments. Intelligent, emotion-aware apps can now be deployed right at the network edge thanks …
