Research Projects
Goals of the Research Programme at IDEAS TIH
-
Research Grant Support: Sponsor and support research projects addressing high-impact, application-driven problem statements. Funds are obtained through NM-ICPS or other government schemes
-
MVP Development through Internal Research: Build deployable minimum viable products with a strong engineering backbone: reproducible code, trained models/weights, evaluation pipelines, CI integration, documentation, examples, and a minimal user interface or demo.
-
Publications and Scientific Rigor: Promote high-quality publications with rigorous baseline comparisons, fully reproducible artifacts (code and seeds), clear ethics and data governance statements, and alignment with journals/conferences relevant to product and translational outcomes.
-
Intellectual Property & Patents: Drive IP creation with emphasis on novelty and technical merit, clear inventorship and ownership, strong documentation and evidence, confidentiality and disclosure management, well-defined patent scope, commercial relevance, and a structured filing and compliance strategy.
