Vertaix, a research group at Princeton CS, is recruiting highly motivated PhD students for Fall 2027 with full funding (including an NSF CAREER Award). The group works on "Investigative Intelligence" — moving AI beyond predictive pattern matching toward systems capable of autonomous scientific discovery, tackling challenges like exploring high-dimensional spaces, mitigating mode collapse, and leveraging spectral diversity for trustworthy discovery systems.
