Hosted by Danielle Perszyk, cognitive scientist at Amazon, the podcast features researchers tackling the hardest problems in agentic AI — from building reliable perception systems to designing training environments that mirror human learning.
The Antibody Developability Benchmark is powered by one of the most diverse antibody datasets in public literature, enabling transparent performance evaluation for AI-guided antibody design.
Challenge pushes teams to demonstrate measurable gains in secure-coding performance while building AI agents that advance real-world utility and reliability at scale.
Initiative will fund over 100 doctoral students researching machine learning, computer vision, and natural-language processing at nine universities.

IEEE CogMI 2025 Workshop on Agentic Intelligence: Risks, Ethics, and Trust2025Creating authentic digital twins of mobile users through realistic user behavior simulation is critical to truly understand and anticipate customer needs at scale. Toward this, we introduce Digital TwIns of MObile User (TIMO), an end-to-end framework for high-fidelity mobile user simulation that addresses four key limitations in existing approaches: subjective decision-making diversity, scalable experience

2025Condition-based monitoring (CBM) is essential for maintaining high machine uptime in industrial settings. While existing CBM solutions effectively use time-series data (e.g., thermal, vibration, amperage, etc.), these can be enhanced with LLMs to integrate domain knowledge and generate interpretable summaries. However, LLMs often incur higher latency and cost than traditional methods. We thus propose LEAD

NeurIPS 2025 Workshop on Mathematical Reasoning and AI2025We present an approach for training language models to interactively prove theorems using the Lean proof assistant. Our approach enables models to propose partial proofs, receive verification feedback, and iteratively refine their proofs. We develop a synthetic data generation pipeline that converts static proof datasets into multi-turn interactive sequences, complete with incremental verification feedback

NeurIPS 2025 AI4NextG2025This paper presents a pilot study toward a foundation model for wireless sensing using FMCW radar. We propose a transformer-based architecture trained on data from mmWave sensor with self-supervised objectives designed to capture temporal–spatial signal characteristics without labels. Our framework introduces strategies for handling sparse channel representations and provides a unified normalization across

2025Unlearning has been proposed to remove copyrighted and privacy-sensitive data from Large Language Models (LLMs). Existing approaches primarily rely on fine-tuning-based methods, which can be categorized into gradient ascent-based (GA-based) and suppression-based methods. However, they often degrade model utility (the ability to respond to normal prompts). In this work, we aim to develop a general framework
