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.

CVPR 20222022Outside-knowledge visual question answering (OKVQA) requires the agent to comprehend the image, make use of relevant knowledge from the entire web, and digest all the information to answer the question. Most previous works address the problem by first fusing the image and question in the multi-modal space, which is inflexible for further fusion with a vast amount of external knowledge. In this paper, we

CVPR 20222022We consider the problem of omni-supervised object detection, which can use unlabeled, fully labeled and weakly labeled annotations, such as image tags, counts, points, etc., for object detection. This is enabled by a unified architecture, Omni-DETR, based on the recent progress on student-teacher framework and end-to-end transformer based object detection. Under this unified architecture, different types

SPIE DCS 2022 Big Data IV: Learning, Analytics, and Applications2022Most state-of-the-art Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are bulky and cannot be deployed on resource-constrained edge devices. In order to leverage the exceptional generalizability of CNNs on edge-devices, they need to be made efficient in terms of memory usage, model size, and power consumption, while maintaining acceptable performance. Neural architecture search (NAS) is a recent approach for developing

ACL Findings 20222022Despite profound successes, contrastive representation learning relies on carefully designed data augmentations using domainspecific knowledge. This challenge is magnif ied in natural language processing, where no general rules exist for data augmentation due to the discrete nature of natural language. We tackle this challenge by presenting a Virtual augmentation Supported Contrastive Learning of sentence

ICLR 20222022Predicting the future trajectory of a moving agent can be easy when the past trajectory continues smoothly but is challenging when complex interactions with other agents are involved. Recent deep learning approaches for trajectory prediction show promising performance and partially attribute this to successful reasoning about agent-agent interactions. However, it remains unclear which features such black-box
