Ongoing Initiatives

• VIP Enhancing Child Welfare Research and Translation through AI: we are developing Generative Intelligence technology to make a real difference in child welfare system. Supported by Vertically Integrated Projects (VIP) program. Partner: Colleage of Social Works and Criminal Justice, FAU.

• Perceptions About Understanding and Skills with GenAI: we are learning how our academic community perceives their skills and confidence in using Generative AI systems and their current level of maturity with this technology.

• OwlMind Framework: research platform to support education and experimentation with Generative Intelligence Systems, AI-Driven Organizations and Collective Intelligence

Candidate Projects

• Small Generative Models in Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems: create a laboratory to build a prototype around Small Generative Models in Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems (Drone Detection). Partner: aiKOLO.

• AI-Native, Resilient Edge Data Mesh for Smart Energy Infrastructure: a new class of AI-native, resilient networking technologies to enable NextG-compatible secure mesh overlays for wireless verticals that require continuous, policy-compliant data flow across highly dynamic, intermittent, or infrastructure-limited environments. Partner: Kinnami.

• Sensible Games: Experimental platform to build and test Hybrid AI models in an interactive, game-like environment. Partner: Gamepill.com.

• A Generative AI Framework for Human Behavior Prediction and Adaptive Multi-User Interaction in the Use Case of Proactive Engagement and Communication Optimization in Counselor Education: This proposal seeks to advance Generative Intelligence techniques that enable AI systems to model human behavior, predict needs, and facilitate adaptive multi-user interaction in real-world environments. Partner: Department of Counselor Education, FAU.

• Economic-Driven Multi-Agent Control for Smart Infrastructure: interdisciplinary research focused on designing decentralized, autonomous agents capable of real‑time coordination and adaptive decision‑making in dynamic environments. Partner: College of Business, FAU.

• GIS-Enhanced Multi-Agent Control for Smart-City Energy: create a GIS-enhanced multi-agent control system, an interconnected team of autonomous AI programs that share information and make joint decisions, to optimize sustainability in Smart Cities by integrating real-time spatial data, predictive modeling, and machine learning. Partner: College of Science FAU.

• Nourish to Flourish - Combatting Food Insecurity in Underserved College Students: a generative AI-powered culturally tailored nutrition and wellness companion, and campus-wide college student-led campaigns to enhance access to fresh, healthy food, improve robust nutrition education levels. Partner: School of Medicine, FAU.

• Resilient Minds - Enhancing Mental Well-being for Transitional Youth Through Trauma-Informed Care and Generative AI: integrate a small-scale Generative Intelligence Systems (GIS) component called “WellBot Lite,” developed in collaboration with a computer science faculty partner. This low-cost, web-based tool will guide youth through weekly wellness check-ins using generative AI prompts, offering real-time feedback like mindfulness strategies and resource links. Partner: School of Medicine, FAU.
