A new philosophy for developing LLM architectures reduces energy requirements, speeds up runtime, and preserves pretrained-model performance.
Amazon VP and distinguished scientist Byron Cook explains how AWS's new Automated Reasoning checks address key challenges in automated reasoning: translating natural to structured language, defining truth, and definitive reasoning.
Using ensembles of agents to generate and refine interactions annotated with chains of thought improves performance on a battery of benchmarks by an average of 29%.
Language models inspired by specialized processing regions in the brain offer significant time and cost savings.
An ensemble of models, weighted according to their reluctance to flag anomalies, outperforms its predecessors.

AAAI 2024 Workshop on Neuro-Symbolic Learning and Reasoning in the Era of Large Language Models (NucLeaR)2024Recent large language models (LLMs) have enabled tremendous progress in natural-language understanding. However, they are prone to generate confident but nonsensical reasoning chains, a significant obstacle to establishing trust with users. In this work, we aim to incorporate rich human feedback on such incorrect model generated reasoning chains for multi-hop reasoning to improve performance on these tasks

Field Robotics2024For autonomous ground vehicles (AGVs) deployed in suburban neighborhoods and other human-centric environments the problem of localization remains a fundamental challenge. There are well established methods for localization with GPS, lidar, and cameras. But even in ideal conditions these have limitations. GPS is not always available and is often not accurate enough on its own, visual methods have difficulty

Nature Medicine2024Errors in pharmacy medication directions, such as incorrect instructions for dosage or frequency, can increase patient safety risk substantially by raising the chances of adverse drug events. This study explores how integrating domain knowledge with large language models (LLMs)—capable of sophisticated text interpretation and generation—can reduce these errors. We introduce MEDIC (medication direction copilot

2024Recent studies have shown that code language models at scale demonstrate significant performance gains on downstream tasks, i.e., code generation. However, most of the existing works on code representation learning train models at a hundred million parameter scale using very limited pre-training corpora. In this work, we fuel code representation learning with a vast amount of code data via a two-stage pre-training

2024It is often advantageous to train models on a subset of the available train examples, because the examples are of variable quality or because one would like to train with fewer examples, without sacrificing performance. We present Gradient Information Optimization (GIO), a scalable, task-agnostic approach to this data selection problem that requires only a small set of (unlabeled) examples representing
