In this paper we develop a framework to study observability for uniform hypergraphs. Hypergraphs, being extensions of graphs, allow edges to connect multiple nodes and unambiguously represent multi-way relationships which are ubiquitous in many real-world networks. We extend the canonical homogeneous polynomial or multilinear dynamical system on uniform hypergraphs to include linear outputs, and we derive a Kalman-rank-like condition for assessing the local weak observability. We propose an exact techniques for determining the local observability criterion, and we propose a greedy heuristic to determine the minimum set of observable nodes. Numerical experiments demonstrate our approach on several hypergraph topologies and a hypergraph representations of neural networks within the mouse hypothalamus.
