Introduction

Laboratory's photo

We aim to develop sustainable and transparent Artificial Intelligent (AI) systems. The goal is twofold: one, to break free from heavy dependence on extremely large data sets, computations, and energy sources, and two, to build systems whose functions are transparent and understandable. We plan to achieve these goals by developing AI systems that can learn via quick and continual adaptation, similarly to humans and animals. Our research relies on a mix of techniques from a wide variety of fields, such as deep learning, statistics, and optimization, covering both theoretical and practical tools.
