Distributed AI and Networked Robotics (DAN) Lab

— where intelligence goes physical

We study distributed AI for networked robotic systems — federated learning across devices and borders, on-device NPU inference, and the wireless networks that bind intelligent machines together in the physical world.

Three pillars, one system

피지컬 AI는 분산 학습, 3차원 인지, 저지연 무선통신 연결이 하나의 시스템 스택으로 통합될 때 완성됨.
DAN Lab은 분산 AI 알고리즘 설계부터 무선통신 국제표준화까지 이 세 축을 수직 통합하여 연구함.

Distributed AI

연합학습과 분산 지능

원시 데이터를 공유하지 않고 모델 업데이트만 교환하는 프라이버시 보존형 연합학습을 설계하고, 이기종 클라이언트·UAV·ad-hoc 네트워크 환경에서 수렴 안정성과 통신 효율을 최적화함.

  • Federated learning (FedAWT, FedWT)
  • UAV·ad-hoc network aggregation
  • Cross-border collaborative AI
Networked Robotics

로봇 인지와 협조 제어

포인트 클라우드 기반 3D 객체 탐지와 ROI 보존형 다운샘플링으로 인지 정확도와 연산 효율을 동시에 확보하고, 네트워크로 연결된 다중 로봇의 실시간 협조 동작으로 확장함.

  • 3D point cloud perception · ROI detection
  • Multi-robot manipulation
  • Indoor positioning for physical AI
On-device Intelligence

NPU 추론과 무선통신표준

모델 경량화와 컴파일 최적화로 엣지 NPU에서의 실시간 추론을 구현하고, 이를 뒷받침하는 Wi-Fi 7/8 multi-link operation 등 차세대 무선통신표준을 IEEE 802 표준화 활동과 함께 연구함.

  • On-device NPU inference
  • Wi-Fi 7 multi-link operation
  • IEEE 802 standardization
