Research that can be checked, run, and used.
Every principle below is a concrete commitment — not a values statement. Each one constrains what the lab ships and what it refuses to publish.
Reproducible by default
Every research release ships with a complete pipeline anyone can run. Not a table of numbers — actual code, data loading scripts, evaluation notebooks, and documented dependencies. If a reviewer cannot reproduce the result, it does not ship.
Permanent, verifiable identity
Every release gets a permanent DOI — via Zenodo, Harvard Dataverse, or a journal. This is not optional ceremony. A DOI means the work is findable and citable long after a GitHub repo might move or a profile might disappear.
Deployable inference code
Research papers describe models. Lab releases also ship production inference code — a pip-installable library, a REST API, or a HuggingFace Space. The test of a model is whether a downstream engineer can actually use it.
Honest evaluation
We report the full evaluation breakdown — not just the headline number. If a model performs well on one class and poorly on another, that gets published. Macro-F1 alongside class-level scores. Confusion matrices. Ablation tables.
No leaderboard chasing
A 0.001 improvement on a benchmark is not a paper. Research earns its place by addressing a genuine gap — an underrepresented language, a clinical population that hasn't been studied, a tool that practitioners actually need.
Open by default
Models on HuggingFace. Datasets on Harvard Dataverse. Code on GitHub. Papers on preprint servers with open DOIs. Not because it is fashionable, but because science that cannot be checked is not science.
International, multi-institutional, and open.
Research at the lab is conducted independently and through formal collaboration with institutions across four countries. Every collaboration adheres to the same standards of reproducibility and open publication.
