Applied Generative AI (AGAI)

Advancing Generative AI through rigorous innovation and impactful applications

At AGAI, we harness the transformative potential of Generative AI across multiple domains. Our work is grounded in rigorous methodologies and spans a diverse set of themes, including:

  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): In our research, we study the impact of various indexing and retrieval algorithms on the energy consumption in RAG systems. Our goal is to democratize access to advanced capabilities using low-resource usage.
  • Mitigating Hallucinations and Bias: We research techniques and algorithms to reduce errors and biases in AI systems.
  • Agentic AI Security: Our group researches the implementation of LLM security measures to address several issues including prompt injection, jailbreaking, and model poisoning.
  • Multi-agent System Security: AGAI researches the multi-agent security, reliability and scalability using Zero-trust Authentication mechanisms for multi-agent, collaborative systems. 

    Through these explorations, we aim to shape a future where Generative AI empowers transformative innovations, responsibly impacting society and industry alike.
