AIRAS - an open-source project for research automation

AIRAS is an open-source software framework for automated research, being developed to support the entire research workflow. It aims to integrate all of the necessary functions for automating research—from literature search and method generation to experimentation and paper writing—and is designed with the aim of enabling as many individuals and organizations as possible to contribute to open innovation in research automation.

Currently, it focuses on the automation of machine learning research.

Unlike other automated research agents such as AI Scientist, AIRAS has the following key features:

Features

• Implemented by individual research processes
• Enables users to implement flexible and customized research workflows
• Allows users to add their own original research processes

Quick Start

It can be easily used by simply installing it via pip as shown below.

Note: The package is currently under preparation and will be available on PyPI soon.

pip install airas

It is implemented by individual research processes, allowing users to design their own automated research workflows freely.

from airas.preparation import PrepareRepository
from airas.retrieve import (
  RetrieveCodeSubgraph, 
  RetrievePaperFromQuerySubgraph, 
  RetrieveRelatedPaperSubgraph
)
from airas.create import (
  CreateExperimentalDesignSubgraph, 
  CreateMethodSubgraph
)
from airas.execution import (
  ExecutorSubgraph, 
  FixCodeSubgraph, 
  PushCodeSubgraph
)


retriever = RetrievePaperFromQuerySubgraph(llm_name=llm_name, save_dir=save_dir, scrape_urls=scrape_urls)
retriever2 = RetrieveRelatedPaperSubgraph(llm_name=llm_name, save_dir=save_dir, scrape_urls=scrape_urls)
retriever3 = RetrieveCodeSubgraph(llm_name=llm_name)
creator = CreateMethodSubgraph(llm_name=llm_name)
creator2 = CreateExperimentalDesignSubgraph(llm_name=llm_name)
coder = PushCodeSubgraph()
executor = ExecutorSubgraph()
fixer = FixCodeSubgraph(llm_name=llm_name)


state = {
    "base_queries": "diffusion model",
    "gpu_enabled": True,
    "experiment_iteration": 1
}

state = retriever.run(state)
state = retriever2.run(state)
state = retriever3.run(state)
state = creator.run(state)
state = creator2.run(state)
state = coder.run(state)
state = executor.run(state)
state = fixer.run(state)

Roadmap

• Complete automation of machine learning research with code-based experimentation
• Autonomous research in robotics
• Autonomous research in various fields

Contact

We are exploring best practices for human-AI collaboration in automated AI research. Together, we're investigating how new research workflows—powered by both human insight and AI agents—can accelerate discovery, improve reproducibility, and give organizations a competitive edge in the age of autonomous research.
