Amazon's competitive-agent architecture creates a continuous improvement cycle that develops security protections at machine speed, reducing what typically takes weeks down to hours.
In-context learning enables a model that can solve forecasting tasks with an arbitrary number of dimensions in a zero-shot manner.
How agentic systems work under the hood — and how AWS’s new AgentCore framework implements their essential components.
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.
New technologies are helping vulnerable communities produce maps that integrate topographical, infrastructural, seasonal, and real-time data — an essential tool for many humanitarian endeavors.

ACL 20232023We present the MASSIVE dataset— Multilingual Amazon Slu resource package (SLURP) for Slot-filling, Intent classification, and Virtual assistant Evaluation. MASSIVE contains 1M realistic, parallel, labeled virtual assistant utterances spanning 51 languages, 18 domains, 60 intents, and 55 slots. MASSIVE was created by tasking professional translators to localize the English-only SLURP dataset into 50 typologically

ICML 2023 Workshop on Sampling and Optimization in Discrete Spaces2023Recent developments in natural language processing (NLP) have highlighted the need for substantial amounts of data for models to capture textual information accurately. This raises concerns regarding the computational resources and time required for training such models. This paper introduces SEmantics for data SAliency in Model performance Estimation (SeSaME). It is an efficient data sampling mechanism

IEEE 2023 Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics (WASPAA)2023Classical speech coding uses low-complexity postfilters with zero lookahead to enhance the quality of coded speech, but their effectiveness is limited by their simplicity. Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) can be much more effective, but require high complexity and model size, or added delay. We propose a DNN model that generates classical filter kernels on a per-frame basis with a model of just 300 K parameters

KDD 2023 Workshop on Mining and Learning with Graphs2023Learning compact representation from customer shopping behaviors is at the core of web-scale E-commerce recommender systems. At Amazon, we put great efforts into learning embedding of customer engagements in order to fuel multiple downstream tasks for better recommendation services. In this work, we define the notion of shopping trajectory that consists of customer interactions at the categorical level

CVPR 20232023We introduce Á-la-carte Prompt Tuning (APT), a transformer-based scheme to tune prompts on distinct data so that they can be arbitrarily composed at inference time. The individual prompts can be trained in isolation, possibly on different devices, at different times, and on different distributions or domains. Furthermore each prompt only contains information about the subset of data it was exposed to during
