The Build on Trainium program is a $110 million credit initiative supporting AI research at 30 universities including Stanford, UC Berkeley, UIUC, UCLA, CMU, and MIT, with a focus on Responsible AI.
The Antibody Developability Benchmark is powered by one of the most diverse antibody datasets in public literature, enabling transparent performance evaluation for AI-guided antibody design.
Challenge pushes teams to demonstrate measurable gains in secure-coding performance while building AI agents that advance real-world utility and reliability at scale.
Initiative will fund over 100 doctoral students researching machine learning, computer vision, and natural-language processing at nine universities.

CIKM 20222022Interleaving is an online evaluation technique that has shown to be orders of magnitude more sensitive than traditional A/B tests. It presents users with a single merged result of the compared rankings and then attributes user actions back to the evaluated rankers. Different interleaving methods in the literature have their advantages and limitations with respect to unbiasedness, sensitivity, preservation

KDD 2022 Workshop on First Content Understanding and Generation for e-Commerce2022We present Catalog Phrase Grounding (CPG), a model that can associate product textual data (title, brands) into corresponding regions of product images (isolated product region, brand logo region) for e-commerce vision-language applications. We use a state-of-the-art modulated multimodal transformer encoder-decoder architecture unifying object detection and phrase-grounding. We train the model in self-supervised

CIKM 20222022E-commerce stores face the challenge of missing and inconsistent attribute values in the product detail pages and have to impute them on behalf of their vendors. Traditional approaches formulate the problem of attribute extraction (AE) from product profiles as natural language tasks such as information extraction or text classification. Such models typically operate at high precision but may yield low recall

KDD 2022 Workshop on Online and Adaptive Recommender Systems2022Twitch is a community driven live streaming video service which uses recommendations trained on implicit feedback data. While this data is available in large quantities, it is subject to various biases and shortcomings. In particular, Twitch watch history data is heavily affected by the unpredictable and irregular behavior of users and streams going online and offline. Two resulting issues are: accounting
