The lab designs deep learning by building knowledge of mathematics and physics into it.

AboutAbout the lab
Applying mathematics and physics to cutting-edge AI development
The Structured Intelligence Lab develops new AI technologies centered on deep learning, drawing on mathematics such as analytical mechanics and differential geometry.
A distinctive feature of deep learning is that mathematical structure can be built in when the network is designed.
Taking advantage of this property, the lab works on AI simulators that enable fast computer simulation, and on generative AI that creates images matching a given text.
The lab holds research presentations, reading groups, and study sessions, and welcomes participation in its study sessions and projects.
Key terms
- Deep learning
- A method in which a multilayer network modeled on the connections between neurons in the brain learns features from many examples
- Differential geometry
- A field of mathematics that uses differentiation and integration to study the shapes of curved surfaces and spaces
- Generative AI
- AI that creates new content, such as text and images, based on the data it has learned from

ResearchResearch themes
The lab develops new AI technologies centered on deep learning, based on mathematics such as analytical mechanics and differential geometry. From AI that speeds up computer simulation to generative AI that creates images matching a given text, it covers both theoretical analysis and applications.
*Illustrative imageDeep Geometric Mechanics
The lab incorporates ideas from analytical mechanics and differential geometry into deep learning to model, from data, physical phenomena whose detailed equations are not known. The aim is fast, accurate simulation that preserves the law of energy conservation.
*Illustrative imageOperator Learning
The lab works on PINNs (physics-informed neural networks), a method that represents solutions of partial differential equations with neural networks. By introducing a way of choosing lattice points based on number theory, it made training roughly 2 to 7 times faster for low-dimensional equations.
*Illustrative imageGeometry and Structure of Semantic Spaces
Focusing on the geometry of the spaces in which images and text are embedded, the lab builds representation learning that can express both the hierarchy and the composition of concepts, as well as mechanisms for generating images that are faithful to written instructions.
*Illustrative imageGeometry of Data Spaces
Using the shapes and connections inherent in the data itself as clues, the lab studies methods for generating 3D point clouds and for smoothly connecting images produced by diffusion models.
