Using the Neuron Kernel Interface, a Reactor–AWS collaboration tackled the dynamic shapes, memory access patterns, and cache management that make real-time autoregressive diffusion hard—building techniques that generalize across models.
Three new papers from Amazon Bio Discovery address bottlenecks in AI-driven antibody engineering, from benchmarking binding predictors to experimentally validating de novo design.
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.

AAAI 2022 Workshop on Trustable, Verifiable and Auditable Federated Learning (FL-AAAI-22)2022Local Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) with periodic model averaging (FedAvg) is a foundational algorithm in Federated Learning. The algorithm independently runs SGD on multiple workers and periodically averages the model across all the workers. When local SGD runs with many workers, however, the periodic averaging causes a significant model discrepancy across the workers making the global loss converge

The Web Conference 20222022A search on the major eCommerce platforms returns up to thousands of relevant products making it impossible for an average customer to audit all the results. Browsing the list of relevant items can be simplified using search filters for specific requirements (e.g., shoes of the wrong size). The complete list of available filters is often overwhelming and hard to visualize. Thus, successful user interfaces

ACL 20222022With the rapid growth in language processing applications, fairness has emerged as an important consideration in data-driven solutions. Although various fairness definitions have been explored in the recent literature, there is lack of consensus on which metrics most accurately reflect the fairness of a system. In this work, we propose a new formulation– ACCUMULATED PREDICTION SENSITIVITY, which measures

ACL 2022 Workshop on ECNLP2022In E-commerce search, spelling correction plays an important role to find desired products for customers in processing user-typed search queries. However, resolving phonetic errors is a critical but overlooked area. The query with phonetic spelling errors tends to appear correct based on pronunciation but is nonetheless inaccurate in spelling (e.g., "bluetooth sound system" vs. "blutut sant sistam") with

Improving relevance quality in product search using high-precision query-product semantic similarityACL 2022 Workshop on ECNLP2022Ensuring relevance quality in product search is a critical task as it impacts the customer’s ability to find intended products in the short-term as well as the general perception and trust of the e-commerce system in the long term. In this work we leverage a high-precision cross-encoder BERT model for semantic similarity between customer query and products and survey its effectiveness for three ranking
