Amazon scientists and policy experts discuss how the company’s responsible-AI pipeline embeds safety and values throughout the AI development lifecycle.
Agentic mechanism enables Amazon and vendors to optimize supply chain management without disclosing private information.
How we reproduced three attacks that extract private training data from AI models and the cryptographic defenses that stop them.
Amazon engineers and scientists have created new tools to optimize delivery networks under uncertainty — and keep them adapting without missing a beat.
Isabelle/HOL's balance of expressiveness, automation, and scalability enabled the world's first formally verified cloud hypervisor.

ACL Findings 20232023Sentiment analysis (SA) systems are used in many products and hundreds of languages. Gender and racial biases are well-studied in English SA systems, but understudied in other languages, with few resources for such studies. To remedy this, we build a counterfactual evaluation corpus for gender and racial/migrant bias in four languages. We demonstrate its usefulness by answering a simple but important question

IEEE ICIP 20232023On shopping websites, product images of low quality negatively affect customer experience. Although there are plenty of work in detecting images with different defects, few efforts have been dedicated to correct those defects at scale. A major challenge is that there are thousands of product types and each has specific defects, therefore building defect specific models is unscalable. In this paper, we propose

Interspeech 20232023Speech generation for machine dubbing adds complexity to conventional Text-To-Speech solutions as the generated output is required to match the expressiveness, emotion and speaking rate of the source content. Capturing and transferring details and variations in prosody is a challenge. We introduce phrase-level cross-lingual prosody transfer for expressive multi-lingual machine dubbing. The proposed phrase-level

Interspeech 20232023Prosody transfer is well-studied in the context of expressive speech synthesis. Cross-lingual prosody transfer, however, is challenging and has been underexplored to date. In this paper, we present a novel solution to learn prosody representations that are transferable across languages and speakers for machine dubbing of expressive multimedia contents. Multimedia contents often contain field recordings.

ACL 20232023Spoken Question Answering (QA) is a key feature of voice assistants, usually backed by multiple QA systems. Users ask questions via spontaneous speech which can contain disfluencies, errors, and informal syntax or phrasing. This is a major challenge in QA, causing unanswered questions or irrelevant answers, and leading to bad user experiences. We analyze failed QA requests to identify core challenges: lexical
