The Remyx AI journey as a transit map: edge computer vision → multimodal spatial AI → agentic research automation, 2019–2026
The journey — from edge computer vision to agentic research automation (2019 → 2026)

📊 By the numbers

🤗 283K+ downloads across 70+ open models & datasets (@remyxai — 21 models · 50 datasets) · ⭐ 1.4K+ GitHub stars across open-source projects


ActionAI — real-time multi-person, spatio-temporally localized activity recognition from body keypoints, on the edge

nls-lumpy-torus — exploring interaction of geometry and dispersion to observe new blowup phenomena

⚙️ The engines

VQASynth — the open pipeline that turns raw images into spatial-reasoning datasets: CLIP retrieval → RAM/LLaVA captions → GroundingDINO/CLIPSeg → SAM → ZoeDepth → RANSAC planes.

Outrider — brief-to-PR research automation: arXiv → rank & license-enrich → select & preflight gates → draft → fidelity / convention / test audits → PR, with automated + human refinement loops and full run telemetry.

🛰️ Open models & datasets

Fine-tuned VLMs for quantitative spatial reasoning (distances, sizes, directions — for robotics & embodied AI) and the synthetic-data pipelines that train them.

  • SpaceQwen2.5-VL-3B — grounded spatial VQA · 150K+ downloads, the flagship
  • SpaceThinker-Qwen2.5VL-3B — a reasoning spatial VLM (test-time compute) · 30K+ downloads
  • SpaceOm · SpaceLLaVA (13B) · SpaceMantis · SpaceQwen3-VL-2B-Thinking
  • Datasets: SpaceThinker · Robo2VLM-Reasoning · OpenSpaces · SpaceJudge — spatial VQA + reasoning traces

🗣️ The SpatialVLM research community credited remyxai for the open-source data-synthesis pipeline behind these models.

🛠️ Open-source projects

ActionAI — real-time spatio-temporal activity recognition from body keypoints; runs on Jetson-class edge devices.

VQASynth — compose multimodal spatial-reasoning datasets from raw images. 🎹

FFMPerative — chat to compose video. Open in Colab

Outrider — a brief-to-PR research harness: scouts arXiv for a codebase and drafts testable implementations into existing call sites. (demo ▶️)

nls-lumpy-torus — a spectral-geometry NLS/Gross–Pitaevskii solver + a gallery of numerical experiments (solitons, analog gravity & cosmology, quantum chaos, topological & Floquet transport), packaged as an MCP toolkit for verification-grounded agent inference.

🔀 Recent upstream contributions

Often drafted with Outrider, then verified and refined:

  • huggingface/peftRiemannian-preconditioned LoRA optimizer (merged ✅)
  • huggingface/peftSuper-Tuning: a new PEFT method (in review)
  • DCDmllm/InstructSAM — inference fix + native C++/ggml runtime docs (merged ✅)
  • huggingface/diffusersHRDiT: training-free 4K high-resolution generation for FLUX.1-dev (community pipeline, in review)
  • in flight toward LeRobot and TRL

🧭 Background

10+ years building production ML — Riot Games, Tubi (ranking & recommenders), Robust.AI (multi-camera 3D perception), and healthcare NLP (clinical IR & risk-stratification, presented at Stanford BMIR) — before co-founding Remyx AI. Along the way, a developer advocate partnering with NVIDIA, Intel, Arduino & the Raspberry Pi Foundation.

MA in Mathematics, UC Berkeley · BS in Mathematics, UNC Chapel Hill — where I studied trapping & blow-up phenomena for nonlinear PDEs on manifolds via finite elements, the same physics behind the nls-lumpy-torus gallery.

Remyx AI is an Alchemist Accelerator company (investors include Generationship & Roble Ventures).
