Research

Neural networks, built to earn their place.

Our research track is where deep learning gets pressure tested before it reaches your product. We reproduce the paper, run it on your data, and keep only what beats a simple baseline.

01

Baseline first, always

02

Every result reproduced before we trust it

03

Measured on the outcome, not the benchmark

The toolkit

Architectures we work with.

Eight families of neural network we use in production, each with the engineering around it to stay reliable.

01

Transformers and attention

Encoder, decoder and encoder-decoder models for language, code, logs and any long sequence where context matters.

02

Convolutional vision models

Detection, segmentation and classification backbones, with modern ConvNet and vision transformer hybrids where they earn it.

03

Sequence and time series

Temporal models for forecasting, anomaly detection and event prediction, from classical recurrent nets to temporal transformers.

04

Representation learning

Contrastive and self-supervised training that turns raw data into embeddings search, matching and retrieval can use.

05

Generative models

Diffusion for images and audio, language models for text, with the evaluation and guardrails to run them in front of users.

06

Graph neural networks

Message-passing models for data that is a network: fraud rings, supply chains, molecules, recommendations.

07

Reinforcement and decision models

Policy learning and contextual bandits for sequential decisions where a fixed rule set stops keeping up.

08

Efficient inference

Quantisation, distillation and pruning to fit a model inside a real latency and cost budget, on a GPU or at the edge.

How the model stays trustworthy

Training and serving, done properly.

Training

  • Reproducible runs with tracked data, code and model versions
  • Honest baselines and ablations before any claim of a gain
  • Held-out and time-split validation that matches how the model will be used
  • Data and label quality checks built into the pipeline

Serving

  • Batched and streaming inference sized to a target response time
  • Quantised or distilled to the smallest model that still passes
  • Drift, accuracy and latency monitored with alerts
  • Automatic rollback when a new model regresses on held-out tests
From paper to production

How a technique earns its place.

  1. 1

    Read and reproduce

    Rebuild the published result on a public dataset. A paper is a claim until it runs.

  2. 2

    Prototype on real data

    The technique meets your data and your constraints, not a clean benchmark. Most ideas fall over here.

  3. 3

    Measure honestly

    Against a simple baseline, on a metric that maps to a real outcome. A small gain at ten times the compute is not a gain.

  4. 4

    Ship or shelve

    If it wins, it goes into the production pipeline with monitoring. If not, we write up what we learned.

Further out

We also spend lab time on harder frontiers, including brain-computer interfaces: the same deep learning toolkit applied to noisy EEG and neural time series. This is exploratory research, not a service. There is no shipped product behind it, and we do not build medical devices.

Work with the research track

Bring a hard problem.

A funded proof of concept, a second opinion on whether a technique is ready, or a longer research partnership. We are open to all three.
