A team of computer science students and faculty from the University of Southern Indiana represented the Romain College of Business at the Association for Computing Machinery Super Computing 25 (ACM SC25) International Supercomputing Conference in St. Louis in November. Their participation highlighted the growing national visibility of USI’s Computer Science Program and the high-caliber research being conducted by students.
USI students Alyson Collins and Maya Seshan achieved significant recognition at the ACM Student Research Competition, where their project was selected as one of the top 10 posters from a pool of nearly 500 submissions submitted by computer science students worldwide. Their research project, An ML Model for Predicting Medication Non-Adherence Using Large-Scale Mental Health Data, stems from USI’s collaborative partnership with Holmusk and its NeuroBlu data platform.
Under the guidance of Dr. Srishti Srivastava, Associate Professor of Computer Science, and Josh McWilliams, Instructor in Computer Information Systems, Collins and Seshan presented their findings to international attendees, receiving an overwhelmingly positive response from researchers, industry leaders and practitioners in the supercomputing community.
“We’re proud, we’re energized and we’re deeply grateful for the recognition and conversations that happened around our students’ work,” said Srivastava, who accompanied students at SC25. “Their success reflects the strength of USI’s academic environment and the creativity and dedication of our students.”
