Hosted by Danielle Perszyk, cognitive scientist at Amazon's AGI Lab, the podcast features researchers tackling the hardest problems in agentic AI — from building reliable perception systems to designing training environments that mirror human learning.
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.

The Web Conference 2023 Workshop on Decision Making for Information Retrieval and Recommender Systems2023Online testing is indispensable in decision making for information retrieval systems. Interleaving emerges as an online testing method with orders of magnitude higher sensitivity than the pervading A/B testing. It merges the compared results into a single interleaved result to show to users, and attributes user actions back to the systems being tested. However, its pairwise design also brings practical

ICASSP 20232023Performance and robustness of real-world Acoustic Event Classification (AEC) solutions depend on ability to train on diverse data from wide range of end-point devices and acoustic environments. Federated Learning (FL) provides a framework to leverage annotated and non-annotated AEC data from servers and client devices in a privacy preserving manner. In this work we propose a novel Federated Relaxed Pareto

ICASSP 20232023Acoustic Event Classification (AEC) has been widely used in devices such as smart speakers and mobile phones for home safety or accessibility support [1]. As AEC models run on more and more devices with diverse computation resource constraints, it became increasingly expensive to develop models that are tuned to achieve optimal accuracy/computation trade-off for each given computation resource constraint

CVPR 20232023Rotated bounding boxes drastically reduce output ambiguity of elongated objects, making it superior to axis-aligned bounding boxes. Despite the effectiveness, rotated detectors are not widely employed. Annotating rotated bounding boxes is such a laborious process that they are not provided in many detection datasets where axis-aligned annotations are used instead. In this paper, we propose a framework that

ICASSP 20232023Current endpointing (EP) solutions learn in a supervised framework, which does not allow the model to incorporate feedback and improve in an online setting. Also, it is common practice to utilize costly grid-search to find the best configuration for an endpointing model. In this paper, we aim to provide a solution for adaptive endpointing by proposing an efficient method for choosing an optimal endpointing
