A new approach to reducing carbon emissions reveals previously hidden emission “hotspots” within value chains, helping organizations make more detailed and dynamic decisions about their future carbon footprints.
How agentic systems work under the hood — and how AWS’s new AgentCore framework implements their essential components.
New technologies are helping vulnerable communities produce maps that integrate topographical, infrastructural, seasonal, and real-time data — an essential tool for many humanitarian endeavors.

AISTATS 20242024Conditional independence (CI) tests are widely used in statistical data analysis, e.g., they are the building block of many algorithms for causal graph discovery. The goal of a CI test is to accept or reject the null hypothesis that X ⊥⊥ Y | Z, where X ∈ R, Y ∈ R, Z ∈ Rd. In this work, we investigate conditional independence testing under the constraint of differential privacy. We de-sign two private CI

2024We introduce a novel framework, LM-Guided CoT, that leverages a lightweight (i.e., <1B) LM for guiding a black-box large (i.e., >10B) LM in reasoning tasks. Specifically, the lightweight LM first generates a rationale for each input instance. The Frozen large LM is then prompted to predict a task output based on the rationale generated by the lightweight LM. Our approach is resource-efficient in the sense

2024This paper introduces Q-tuning, a novel approach for continual prompt tuning that enables the lifelong learning of a pre-trained language model. When learning a new task, Q-tuning trains a task-specific prompt by adding it to a prompt queue consisting of the prompts from older tasks. To better transfer the knowledge of old tasks, we design an adaptive knowledge aggregation technique that reweighs previous

2024Understanding data visualizations like charts and plots requires reasoning about both visual elements and numerics. Although strong in extractive questions, current chart visual question answering (chart VQA) models suffer on complex reasoning questions. In this work, we address the lack of reasoning ability by data augmentation. We lever-age Large Language Models (LLMs), which have shown to have strong

ASPLOS 20242024This paper introduces Fermihedral, a compiler framework focusing on discovering the optimal Fermion-to-qubit encod-ing for targeted Fermionic Hamiltonians. Fermion-to-qubit encoding is a crucial step in harnessing quantum comput-ing for efficient simulation of Fermionic quantum systems. Utilizing Pauli algebra, Fermihedral redefines complex constraints and objectives of Fermion-to-qubit encoding into a
