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.

The Journal of Finance and Data Science (JFDS)2021We present a simple and effective methodology for the generation of lexicons (word lists) that may be used in natural language scoring applications. In particular, in the finance industry, word lists have become ubiquitous for sentiment scoring. These have been derived from dictionaries such as the Harvard Inquirer and require manual curation. Here, we present an automated approach to the curation of lexicons

MLSys 2021 Workshop on Neural Networks and Systems2021The recent emergence of demand for running Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) on giant real world graphs requires more scalable system designs. Due to the sparse and irregular connections a graph has, parallel GNN training encounters the problem of load imbalance among workers. In this paper, we show that previous techniques based on graph partitioning is insufficient to address the load imbalance caused by GNN

ASRU 20212021RNN-T has received a lot of attention recently since it achieves state-of-art WER in automatic speech recognition. To run the RNN-T model in real-time on resource-limited edge devices, model compression is often required. However, typical compression methods are still challenging to apply to RNN-T. First, it takes a lot of fine-tuning time and computing resources (e.g., up to several weeks even with multiple

NeurIPS 2021 Workshop on Databases and AI (DBAI)2021While transformers demonstrate impressive performance on many knowledge intensive (KI) tasks, their ability to serve as implicit knowledge bases (KBs) remains limited, as shown on several slot-filling, question-answering (QA), fact verification, and entity-linking tasks. In this paper, we implement an efficient, data-programming technique that enriches training data with KB-derived context and improves

NeurIPS 2021 Workshop on Efficient Natural Language and Speech Processing2021Pretraining and then finetuning of large language models is one of the commonly used approaches to achieve good performance in natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However most pre-trained models have large memory footprint and low inference speed. Deploying such large models to applications with latency constraint is challenging. In this work, we focus on accelerating the inference via conditional
