The Auton Lab
Developing Artificial Intelligence for practical solutions to real world problems
COVID-19 RESPONSE
The Auton Lab has devoted some of its efforts and knowledge to analyzing the threat and spread of the COVID-19 "coronavirus" pandemic, in the hopes of helping to provide rapid response to those victims suffering from it, and to avoid similar problems in the future. Please see our COVID-19 page for resources made available for this.
Research Focus Areas
The Auton Lab is interested in the underlying computer science, mathematics, statistics and AI concerning detection and exploitation of patterns in data
Key People
The Auton Lab is directed by Artur Dubrawski, Jeff Schneider, and Barnabas Poczos, but many people contribute to its success.
