Shaping the future of computing to benefit society  

SRI Information & Computing Sciences is taking on some of the world’s most important challenges, creating leading-edge technology solutions that have revolutionary impact.   

Our researchers are redefining the way human beings interact with machines and with one another through machines, as we define what’s next in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and computing for the real world.

200+Research and technical staff, including 55% PhDs

$100 M+Annual research funding

$1 Billion+Created via spinoffs

“One of the things people value about SRI is the breadth of possibility. We work with other SRI teams and groups outside of SRI on a broad set of technological challenges, giving our researchers a wide range of opportunities to have real and meaningful impact on the world.”

The future of how humans meet machines  

Our research brings commercial, government, corporate, and startup customers depth of knowledge and new solutions in AI, bioinformatics, cybersecurity, privacy, and reliable system design. We’re pushing the boundaries of machine learning, including neurosymbolic approaches and AI at the edge. As we increasingly rely on AI models, autonomous systems, and the digital world, this research is taking on greater urgency and importance. We’re applying our research to making the Internet and social media more transparent, including the worldwide problem of identifying fake information.

SRI has pioneered transformative machine vision innovations. And today we’re exploring the next frontiers of virtual and augmented reality — not just talking to our computers but seeing the world through them. We also do fundamental work in speech, assessing speaker characteristics like identity and level of engagement, and understanding the nuances of spoken conversation.  

Find out about our labs

At SRI, we have the opportunity — and responsibility — to impact the world through our research. We not only influence the world through publication, but our four laboratories also have definitive impact on society by bringing our discoveries into the real world.

  • CyanoCyc Cyanobacterial Web Portal

    Abstract CyanoCyc is a web portal that integrates an exceptionally rich database collection of information about cyanobacterial genomes with an extensive suite of bioinformatics tools. It was developed to address the needs of the cyanobacterial research and biotechnology communities. The 277 annotated cyanobacterial genomes currently in CyanoCyc are supplemented with computational inferences including predicted metabolic…


  • Human Body Model Based ID using Shape and Pose Parameters

    We present a Human Body model-based IDentification system (HMID) system that is jointly trained for shape, pose, and biometric identification.


  • The EcoCyc Database (2023)

    The long-term goal of the project is to describe the complete molecular catalog of the E. coli cell, as well as the functions of each of its molecular parts, to facilitate a system-level understanding of E. coli.
