NIYO research
The active research questions driving NIYO across perception, learning and collaboration.
Overview
NIYO's research agenda draws on all six of the lab's pillars, focused on the problems that gate useful, safe collaboration in human environments.
What this covers
Robust perception
Understanding cluttered, changing scenes well enough to act safely.
Skill transfer
Reusing learned behavior across tasks without catastrophic forgetting.
Shared autonomy
Blending human and machine control in real time.
Assurance
Monitoring and verification that make safety claims auditable.
On-device cognition
Running more intelligence at the edge for latency and privacy.
Evaluation methods
Benchmarks that measure real progress, not demo polish.
