Research

Our research spans two fundamental areas that are critical to a future where AI proliferates and permeates every aspect of our lives.

Model Informatics

The study of models as complex information systems. We investigate how AI models encode, process, and transform information, developing frameworks to understand their internal representations, behaviors, and capabilities. This includes analyzing model architectures, training dynamics, and emergent properties to create comprehensive profiles of AI systems.

Verifiable Computation

The development of techniques to programmatically verify execution of complex systems. We create cryptographic and algorithmic methods that enable automated verification of AI model behaviors, capabilities, and integrity without requiring access to internal parameters or training data.
