X+ Intelligence Lab.
Trustworthy intelligence for a connected world.
X+ Intelligence Lab studies trustworthy AI, mobile computing, and cybersecurity. We explore WiFi signals, cameras, acoustics, and other ubiquitous sensing modalities to protect sensitive personal data and strengthen AI systems.
Our work connects security and privacy, context-aware and explainable AI, mobile sensing, and large language models. Applications span transportation, smart homes, and agriculture, with collaborations across sociology, health, and data science.
Our research
Sensing, intelligence & trust.
