Independent AI research & engineering

Research
Beyond
Assumptions.

We investigate how intelligent systems reason, learn, and behave—and build the tools to find out.

01 / Research

Questions first.
Evidence always.

From imperfect rewards to geometric retrieval, our work starts with a testable question. The outcome stays open.

All research
01 / ResearchPilot & protocol

Reasoning & reinforcement learning

Robust Reasoning RL

Studying correctness and reward overfitting when verifiers are noisy, incomplete, biased, or inconsistent.

02 / ResearchSimulator findings

Quantum & classical computation

Quantum Advantage Simulator

A shared experimental framework for testing quantum methods against classical references, without assuming an advantage.

03 / ResearchNegative result

Retrieval & geometric learning

ATLAS

Testing geometry, graph structure, and persistent topology for multi-hop retrieval—and retaining the negative result.

Computational neuroscience

NeuroSim

An implementation platform connecting biophysical neuron models, network simulation, and scientific visualization.

02 / Engineering

Ideas need
working systems.

Instrumentation, developer tools, and experimental runtimes. Engineering that makes the next question possible.

03 / Our approach

An assumption is
a place to begin.
Not a place to stop.

Meet the lab's philosophy
01

Make it testable.

Turn an interesting idea into a question with controls, baselines, and a way to be wrong.

02

Keep the whole result.

Negative outcomes and unfinished studies belong alongside positive findings.

03

Leave a reproducible trail.

Share the code, methods, configurations, and boundaries that make evidence useful.

Built in the open

Good questions deserve
more perspectives.

Reproduce an experiment. Challenge an assumption. Build something useful with us.
