A new dataset with over 238,000 images challenges and advances the state of the art in visual defect detection for complex retail applications.
To transform scientific domains, foundation models will require physical-constraint satisfaction, uncertainty quantification, and specialized forecasting techniques that overcome data scarcity while maintaining scientific rigor.
The language AI agents might speak, sharing context without compromising privacy, modeling agentic negotiations, and understanding users’ commonsense policies are some of the open scientific questions that researchers in agentic AI will need to grapple with.
With a novel parallel-computing architecture, a CAD-to-USD pipeline, and the use of OpenUSD as ground truth, a new simulator can explore hundreds of sensor configurations in the time it takes to test just a few physical setups.
From reimagining storage to serverless computing, Aurora continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in database technology.

RecSys 20252025The user cold-start problem remains a fundamental challenge for sequential recommender systems, particularly in large-scale video streaming services where a substantial portion of users have limited or no historical interaction data. In this work, we formulate an attempt at solving this issue by proposing a framework that leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to enrich interaction histories using user

ACM SIGSPATIAL 20252025Mapping addresses to geolocations accurately is a challenging and important problem, with many real-world applications such as delivery logistics, map building and path finding. High quality embedding of geospatial data (e.g., addresses, geocodes) which is grounded in real world play an important role in success of modeling tasks such as geocoding and address resolution/matching. Existing state-of-the-art

ISTFA 20252025As integrated circuits continue to scale down to ever-smaller dimensions and increased complexity, traditional failure isolation & analysis (FA/FI), and sample preparation techniques face significant limitations. The increasing density of modern semiconductor devices, now advancing beyond 3 nm technology nodes, presents unprecedented challenges in precise layer-by-layer analysis. Over the past decade, Xenon

2025The Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are continually pre-trained on a mixture of image-text caption data and interleaved document data, while the high-quality data filtering towards image-text interleaved document data is under-explored. We propose to train an efficient MLLM as a Unified Mulitmodal Data Quality Classifier to Filter both high-quality image-text caption and interleaved data (UniFilter

CIKM 20252025Current methods for evaluating large language models (LLMs) typically focus on high-level tasks such as text generation, without targeting a particular AI application. This approach is not sufficient for evaluating LLMs for Responsible AI dimensions like fairness, since protected attributes that are highly relevant in one application may be less relevant in another. In this work, we construct a dataset
