We present Amazon Nova Premier, our most capable multimodal foundation model and teacher for model distillation.
In experiments involving real quantum devices and algorithms, automated-reasoning-based method for mapping quantum computations onto quantum circuits is 26 times as fast as predecessors.
A new multimodal foundation model that unifies speech and text processing in a single architecture, delivering frontier voice intelligence and industry-leading price performance.
Novel training procedure and decoding mechanism enable model to outperform much larger foundation model prompted to perform the same task.

2025Machine unlearning has been used to remove unwanted knowledge acquired by large language models (LLMs). In this paper, we examine machine unlearning from an optimization perspective, framing it as a regularized multi-task optimization problem, where one task optimizes a forgetting objective and another optimizes the model performance. In particular, we introduce a normalized gradient difference (NGDiff)

2025Mitigating the retention of sensitive or private information in large language models is essential for enhancing privacy and safety. Existing unlearning methods, like Gradient Ascent and Negative Preference Optimization, directly tune models to remove unwanted information. However, these methods often become unstable because they fine-tune by maximizing cross-entropy loss, which is the opposite of traditional

2025Previous text-to-SQL datasets and systems have primarily focused on user questions with clear intentions that can be answered. However, real user questions can often be ambiguous with multiple interpretations or unanswerable due to a lack of relevant data. In this work, we construct a practical conversational text-to-SQL dataset called PRACTIQ, consisting of ambiguous and unanswerable questions inspired

Query-to-Product Type (Q2PT) is a crucial e-commerce query understanding signal, which directly influences search results relevance and customer UX experience. This imposes high standards on the industrial Q2PT classification models, which have to be regularly monitored for quality among all predicted product types and use cases at scale. Existing solutions for such Q2PT model evaluation involve human-labeled

2025Task-oriented Dialog systems (ToD) are essential in automating user interactions, but their complex design and dynamic nature make evaluation particularly challenging. Current evaluation methodologies heavily depend on human annotators, which can be inefficient, subjective, and expensive to scale. To advance the field, there is a pressing need for a reliable, scalable, and systematic evaluation framework
