Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence are transforming the way scientific research is conducted. However, the growing volume of scientific publications, datasets, and experimental results makes it increasingly difficult for researchers to efficiently analyze information and identify novel research directions. This paper proposes an AI-powered autonomous research assistant framework designed to support and accelerate the scientific discovery process. The proposed system integrates advanced techniques from Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, and Knowledge Graph technologies to automatically collect, analyze, and synthesize scientific knowledge from multiple sources. The framework enables intelligent literature analysis, automated hypothesis generation, research gap identification, and experimental design recommendations. By leveraging large-scale scientific datasets and contextual semantic understanding, the system can assist researchers in discovering hidden patterns and relationships within complex research domains. Additionally, the proposed model incorporates explainable AI mechanisms to ensure transparency and reliability in the generated insights. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that the autonomous AI research assistant significantly improves research efficiency by reducing literature review time, enhancing knowledge discovery, and supporting data-driven scientific decision-making. The proposed approach has the potential to transform traditional research methodologies and contribute to faster, more efficient scientific innovation across multiple disciplines.
