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.
Unique end-of-arm tools with three-dimensional force sensors and innovative control algorithms enable robotic arms to “pick” items from and “stow” items in fabric storage pods.

SigDial 2025 DSTC-12 Workshop2025Conversational analytics has been on the forefront of transformation driven by the advances in Speech and Natural Language Processing techniques. Rapid adoption of Large Language Models (LLMs) in the analytics field has taken the problems that can be automated to a new level of complexity and scale. In this paper, we introduce Theme Detection as a critical task in conversational analytics, aimed at automatically

IJCAI 2025 Workshop on User-Aligned Assessment of Adaptive AI Systems2025Effectively assessing AI systems, particularly those operating in specialized domains or producing dynamic outputs, requires translating nuanced human expertise into scalable, quantitative measures. Traditional metrics often fall short in capturing qualitative requirements that domain experts intuitively grasp. This paper presents a novel framework that systematically transforms qualitative expert feedback

RecSys 20252025Audio streaming services, on both voice assistants and in visual apps, often field requests such as 'play more like Foo Fighters.' The service then returns a sequence of tracks that is both relevant to the request and personalized to the requester. While it is natural to evaluate the policies that produce these sequences in terms of customer engagement, such metrics do not assess their performance on other

2025Behavioral therapy notes are important for both legal compliance and patient care. Unlike progress notes in physical health, quality standards for behavioral therapy notes remain underdeveloped. To address this gap, we collaborated with licensed therapists to design a comprehensive rubric for evaluating therapy notes across key dimensions: completeness, conciseness, and faithfulness. Further, we extend

ICCV 20252025We present a novel large-scale dataset for defect detection in a logistics setting. Recent work on industrial anomaly detection has primarily focused on manufacturing scenarios with highly controlled poses and a limited number of object categories. Existing benchmarks like MVTec-AD [6] and VisA [33] have reached saturation, with state-of-theart methods achieving up to 99.9% AUROC scores. In contrast to
