Using the Neuron Kernel Interface, a Reactor–AWS collaboration tackled the dynamic shapes, memory access patterns, and cache management that make real-time autoregressive diffusion hard—building techniques that generalize across models.
Three new papers from Amazon Bio Discovery address bottlenecks in AI-driven antibody engineering, from benchmarking binding predictors to experimentally validating de novo design.
New research indicates that AI agents learn compressible models of data, which don’t have enough space to enable memorization.
How the Verus "program verifier", which automatically checks code against a mathematical specification of its functionality, helps increase security assurance in software projects.
Ten years after we founded the Automated Reasoning Group, mathematical logic has moved from academic research into production services that secure millions of customer workloads — demonstrating that systems can be provably correct, not just probably correct.

ICASSP 20192019We study media presence detection, that is, learning to recognize if a sound segment (typically lasting for a few seconds) of a long recorded stream contains media (TV) sound. This problem is difficult because non-media sound sources can be quite diverse (e.g. human voicing, non-vocal sounds and non-human sounds), and the recorded sound can be a mixture of media and non-media sound. Different from speech

ICASSP 20192019This paper presents our work of training acoustic event detection (AED) models using unlabeled dataset. Recent acoustic event detectors are based on large-scale neural networks, which are typically trained with huge amounts of labeled data. Labels for acoustic events are expensive to obtain, and relevant acoustic event audios can be limited, especially for rare events. In this paper we leverage an Internet-scale

ICASSP 20192019This is a report of our lessons learned building acoustic models from 1 Million hours of unlabeled speech, while labeled speech is restricted to 7,000 hours. We employ student/teacher training on unlabeled data, helping scale out target generation in comparison to confidence model based methods, which require a decoder and a confidence model. To optimize storage and to parallelize target generation, we

ICASSP 20192019Conventional far-field automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems typically employ microphone array techniques for speech enhancement in order to improve robustness against noise or reverberation. However, such speech enhancement techniques do not always yield ASR accuracy improvement because the optimization criterion for speech enhancement is not directly relevant to the ASR objective. In this work, we

ICASSP 20192019The use of spatial information with multiple microphones can improve far-field automatic speech recognition (ASR) accuracy. However, conventional microphone array techniques degrade speech enhancement performance when there is an array geometry mismatch between design and test conditions. Moreover, such speech enhancement techniques do not always yield ASR accuracy improvement due to the difference between
