DesMind Labs
Our research, experimental projects and collaborations.
Research areas
Privacy-preserving AI
Models that learn from sensitive data without exposing it. This is the core of our PhD research.
Federated learning
Training across hospitals, sites and devices while raw data stays where it was created.
Responsible AI
Evaluation, governance and ethics designed into systems, not added after launch.
Conversational systems
Assistants that keep context, cite sources and hand over to a person when they should.
Large language models
Retrieval, fine-tuning, structured outputs and guardrails for dependable behaviour.
Digital health
AI for early detection and support in care, starting with perinatal mental health.
Live demonstrations
Research assistants, in-browser machine learning and interactive walkthroughs.
