“Machine learning creates boundless potential across education, avionics, biosciences, human-machine-team collaboration, high-assurance systems, telepresence, augmented reality, and other areas. SRI is well-positioned to make an impact across all of these.”
PATRICK LincolnPresident, Information and Computing Sciences Division
The future of how humans meet machines
Our research brings commercial, government, corporate, and startup customers depth of knowledge and new solutions in AI, bioinformatics, cybersecurity, privacy, and reliable system design. We’re pushing the boundaries of machine learning, including neurosymbolic approaches and AI at the edge. As we increasingly rely on AI models, autonomous systems, and the digital world, this research is taking on greater urgency and importance. We’re applying our research to making the Internet and social media more transparent, including the worldwide problem of identifying fake information.
SRI has pioneered transformative machine vision innovations. Today, we’re exploring the next frontiers of virtual and augmented reality — not just talking to our computers, but also seeing the world through them. We also do fundamental work in speech, assessing speaker characteristics like identity and level of engagement and understanding the nuances of spoken conversation.
Find out about our labs
At SRI, we have the opportunity — and responsibility — to impact the world through our research. We not only influence the world through publication, but our four laboratories also make a definitive impact on society by bringing our discoveries into the real world.

Enabling Scalable Mineral Exploration: Self-Supervision and Explainability
Abstract Machine Learning (ML) for Mineral Prospectivity Mapping (MPM) is important for automating and accelerating the workflow to critical mineral assessment. Recent MPM works have explored Deep Learning (DL) as a modeling tool with more representation capacity. However, these overparameterized methods may be more prone to overfitting due to their reliance on scarce labeled data…

GFM4MPM: Towards Geospatial Foundation Models for Mineral Prospectivity Mapping
Abstract Machine Learning (ML) for Mineral Prospectivity Mapping (MPM) remains a challenging problem as it requires the analysis of associations between large-scale multi-modal geospatial data and a few historical mineral commodity observations (positive labels). Recent MPM works have explored Deep Learning (DL) as a modeling tool with more representation capacity. However, these overparameterized methods may…
