Runtime optimizations and a thorough evaluation process driven by agentic AI help ensure that models written in PyTorch will execute efficiently and reliably on Trainium systems.
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.

EMNLP 2021 Workshop on Novel Ideas in Learning-to-Learn through Interaction2021Language-guided robots performing home and office tasks must navigate in and interact with the world. Grounding language instructions against visual observations and actions to take in an environment is an open challenge. We present Embodied BERT (EmBERT), a transformer-based model which can attend to high-dimensional, multi-modal inputs across long temporal horizons for language-conditioned task completion

EMNLP 2021 Workshop on NLP for Conversational AI2021Large-scale auto-regressive models have achieved great success in dialogue response generation, with the help of Transformer layers. However, these models do not learn a representative latent space of the sentence distribution, making it hard to control the generation. Recent works have tried to learn sentence representations using Transformer-based framework, but do not model the context-response relationship

NeurIPS 20212021When machine learning systems meet real world one of several requirements. In this paper, we assay a complementary perspective originating from the increasing availability of pre-trained and regularly improving state-of-the-art models. While new improved models develop at a fast pace, downstream tasks vary more slowly or stay constant. Assume that we have a large unlabelled data set for which we want to

NeurIPS 2021 Workshop on Safe and Robust Control of Uncertain Systems2021While high-return policies can be learned on a wide range of systems through reinforcement learning, actual deployment of the resulting policies is often hindered by their sensitivity to future changes in the environment. Adversarial training has shown some promise in producing policies that retain better performance under environment shifts, but existing approaches only consider robustness to specific

WeCNLP 20212021Rich, open-domain textual data available on the web resulted in great advancements for language processing. However, while that data may be suitable for language processing tasks, they are mostly non-conversational, lacking many phenomena that appear in human interactions and this is one of the reasons why we still have many unsolved challenges in conversational AI. In this work, we attempt to address this
