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.

ICML 2021, AAAI 20212021Attribution methods have been shown as promising approaches for identifying key features that led to learned model predictions. While most existing attribution methods rely on a baseline input for performing feature perturbations, limited research has been conducted to address the baseline selection issues. Poor choices of baselines limit the ability of one-vs-one explanations for multi-class classifiers

ASRU 20212021In this work, we propose Tiny-CRNN (Tiny Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network) models applied to the problem of wakeword detection, and augment them with scaled dot product attention. We find that, compared to Convolutional Neural Network models, False Accepts in a 250k parameter budget can be reduced by 25% with a 10% reduction in parameter size by using models based on the Tiny-CRNN architecture, and

EMNLP 20222021Warning: This paper contains examples that may be offensive or upsetting. Prompting inputs with natural language task descriptions has emerged as a popular mechanism to elicit reasonably accurate outputs from large-scale generative language models with little to no in-context supervision. This also helps gain insight into how well language models capture the semantics of a wide range of downstream tasks

ASRU 20212021Recent years have seen significant advances in end-to-end (E2E) spoken language understanding (SLU) systems, which directly predict intents and slots from spoken audio. While dialogue history has been exploited to improve conventional text-based natural language understanding systems, current E2E SLU approaches have not yet incorporated such critical contextual signals in multi-turn and task-oriented dialogues

NeurIPS 2021 Workshop on I (Still) Can't Believe It's Not Better2021We consider the problem of probabilistic forecasting over categories with graph structure, where the dynamics at a vertex depends on its local connectivity structure. We present GOPHER, a method that combines the inductive bias of graph neural networks with neural ODEs to capture the intrinsic local continuous-time dynamics of our probabilistic forecasts. We study the benefits of these two inductive biases
