Research

At GLOW.AI, we are interested in learning and optimization on data-centric AI, collaborative AI, automated AI, and AI for science problems, their applications to LLMs & MLLMs, among others. See below for the research themes we work on.

Data-Centric AI

Data selection, data valuation, knowledge distillation, data attribution, machine unlearning, data ownership, domain generalization

Agents in ML

Federated learning, collaborative ML, incentives, reinforcement learning

Automated AI

Active learning, Bayesian & zeroth-order optimization, neural architecture search, meta-learning

AI for Science

Experimental design, physics-informed ML, quantum ML, precision agriculture
