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.
PatientAgentBench generates a synthetic patient health record, a realistic clinical vignette, and a patient agent that converses with the AI system under evaluation, to capture what a patient-facing agent actually has to do.
A new chiplet architecture, custom die-to-die connectivity, and support for DDR5-8800 memory and the latest PCIe gen6 interconnects improve performance by 25% for general-purpose and agentic AI workloads.

The Web Conference 20222022Current popular machine learning techniques in natural language processing and data mining rely heavily on high-quality text sources. Nevertheless, real-world text datasets contain a significant amount of spelling errors and improperly punctuated variants where the performance of these models would quickly deteriorate. Moreover, existing text normalization methods are prohibitively expensive to execute

ICLR 20222022An important component for generalization in machine learning is to uncover underlying latent factors of variation as well as the mechanism through which each factor acts in the world. In this paper, we test whether 17 unsupervised, weakly supervised, and fully supervised representation learning approaches correctly infer the generative factors of variation in simple datasets (dSprites, Shapes3D, MPI3D)

ICASSP 20222022Confidence estimation for Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) is instrumental in improving the reliability in the behavior of downstream applications. In this work we propose (1) a novel confidence metric for SER based on the relationship between emotion primitives: arousal, valence, and dominance (AVD) and emotion categories (ECs), (2) EmoConfidNet - a DNN trained alongside the EC recognizer to predict the

ICASSP 20222022We propose a novel multi-task pre-training method for Speech Emotion Recognition (SER). We pre-train SER model simultaneously on Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and sentiment classification tasks to make the acoustic ASR model more “emotion aware”. We generate targets for the sentiment classification using text-to-sentiment model trained on publicly available data. Finally, we fine-tune the acoustic

AISTATS 20222022Multivariate time series anomaly detection has become an active area of research in recent years, with Deep Learning models outperforming previous approaches on benchmark datasets. Among reconstruction-based models, most previous work has focused on Variational Autoencoders and Generative Adversarial Networks. This work presents DGHL, a new family of generative models for time series anomaly detection,
