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.

ICASSP 20212021We present a novel online end-to-end neural diarization system, BWEDA-EEND, that processes data incrementally for a variable number of speakers. The system is based on the Encoder-Decoder-Attractor (EDA) architecture of Horiguchi et al., but utilizes the incremental Transformer encoder, attending only to its left contexts and using block-level recurrence in the hidden states to carry information from block

ICASSP 20212021Today, many state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems apply all-neural models that map audio to word sequences trained end-to-end along one global optimisation criterion in a fully data driven fashion. These models allow high precision ASR for domains and words represented in the training material but have difficulties recognising words that are rarely or not at all represented during

ICASSP 20212021The study of keyword spotting, a subfield within the broader field of speech recognition that centers around identifying individual keywords in speech audio, has gained particular importance in recent years with the rise of personal voice assistants such as Alexa. As voice assistants aim to rapidly expand to support new languages, keywords, and use cases, stakeholders face the issue of limited training

ICASSP 20212021Natural language understanding (NLU) models in production systems rely heavily on human annotated data, which involves an expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone process. Moreover, the model release process requires offline supervised learning and human in-the-loop. Together, these factors prolong the model update cycle and result in sub-standard model performance in situations where usage behavior is

ICASSP 20212021A common approach to the automatic detection of mispronunciation in language learning is to recognize the phonemes produced by a student and compare it to the expected pronunciation of a native speaker. This approach makes two simplifying assumptions: a) phonemes can be recognized from speech with high accuracy, b) there is a single correct way for a sentence to be pronounced. These assumptions do not always
