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.

WSC 20252025Online retailer supply chain management involves decisions about how much and when to buy inventory, where to inbound new inventory, how to transfer inventory between warehouses, and how to fulfill customer orders. These choices must adhere to capacity constraints, such as labor plans, while minimizing impacts on customer service and profitability. This paper presents a dual decomposition framework and

2025Since the seminal work of TabPFN, research on tabular foundation models (TFMs) based on in-context learning (ICL) has challenged long-standing paradigms in machine learning. Without seeing any real-world data, models pretrained on purely synthetic datasets generalize remarkably well across diverse datasets, often using only a moderate number of in-context examples. This shifts the focus in tabular machine

2025Structuring latent representations in a hierarchical manner enables models to learn patterns at multiple levels of abstraction. However, most prevalent image understanding models focus on visual similarity, and learning visual hierarchies is relatively unexplored. In this work, for the first time, we introduce a learning paradigm that can encode user-defined multi-level complex visual hierarchies in hyperbolic

NeurIPS 2025 Workshop on Efficient Reasoning2025We propose Re-FORC, an adaptive reward prediction method that, given a context, enables prediction of the expected future rewards as a function of the number of future thinking tokens. Re-FORC trains a lightweight adapter on reasoning models, demonstrating improved prediction with longer reasoning and larger models. Re-FORC enables: 1) early stopping of unpromising reasoning chains, reducing compute by

Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review2025The 21st century workforce is increasingly characterized by more flexible labor models, particularly in e-commerce and supply chain operations. While previous research has focused mostly on last-mile, on-the-road settings, we focus on under-the-roof (UTR) environments, which present unique challenges due to their complex, varied tasks requiring training and experience. Our study addresses the need to better
