OUR APPROACH

Research the problem. Prototype the method. Build the system.

We work on speech and vision, from model experiments to applications. A language switch, an uncertain speaker or an object that changes between frames gives us a concrete problem to investigate.

01 / RESEARCH

Identify the error.
Establish a comparison.

Illustration: A researcher reviews themes, supporting interview evidence and open questions on a screen.
Interview evidence is brought together as findings and open questions.

In speech, we examine recognition, speaker assignment and dialogue separately. In vision, we examine image and scene interpretation, continuity and the effects of a repair. Each task needs its own source material, baseline and acceptance criteria.

Our initial speech programme compared adapted checkpoints with unchanged foundation models. Broader visual-model and video-production comparisons remain ongoing or proposed work.

The tradeoff: a tightly defined test makes an error easier to explain, but its result may not extend to another language, scene or recording condition.

02 / PROTOTYPE

Try the method
on difficult cases.

Illustration: A researcher compares two video frames where a bag changes from blue to the reference red while the person and scene remain consistent.
Research example: correcting one object while preserving the surrounding scene.

Prototypes let us examine what happens when speakers overlap, terminology changes, an object loses its shape or an action happens in the wrong order. We retain unsuccessful attempts and inspect the parts that need correction.

Model adaptation, input preparation and workflow changes are different interventions. A selective video repair, for example, should be assessed for both the intended correction and any changes to approved content.

The tradeoff: a targeted correction can preserve more of a sequence, but it may depend on the scene and require manual review. We need comparisons before choosing it for wider use.

03 / BUILD

Make the workflow
usable and reviewable.

Illustration: Two colleagues compare discovery notes and a recording with requirements, scope and a delivery plan on a laptop facing them.
Discovery conversations and documents become a scoped implementation proposal.

Building an application adds work beyond the model: preparing inputs, connecting sources, handling interruptions, presenting revisions and making results available for review.

Turnwise is our AI studio for using and evolving models. Its eight starter templates describe reusable ways to understand needs, assess evidence, plan activities and develop work. Selected speech prototypes are being hardened for pilots. Vision and video work remain research and prototypes, with their own deployment and evaluation questions.

The tradeoff: review and recovery add steps. We assess whether those steps help people find errors and complete the task with less correction.

EVALUATING THE WHOLE TASK

Quality, correction
and operating conditions.

Recognition accuracy, speaker-assignment errors, visual continuity and unwanted changes describe different aspects of quality. We consider correction effort, latency, memory and cost alongside those measures.

The initial speech comparisons are under internal review. Our working papers describe the methods and test plans.

ADDITIONAL CUSTOMER-DRIVEN RESEARCH

Questions from
teaching, learning and buyer discovery.

These projects examine task constraints, source checking and human review in other settings. The teaching toolkit helps educators prepare lessons, the learning prototype connects responses to sources, and the buyer exercise organizes customer interviews.
