What machine learning theorists learned using AI agents to generate proofs — and what comes next.
As AI models grow larger, they become less insightful, not more. To ensure that they continue to learn, we need to reduce their inference time.
How do you match AI warnings about future events with what actually happens? A KDD test-of-time award recognizes a 2014 approach that modern systems still need.

February 2, 202610 min readEvery NFL game generates millions of tracking data points from 22 RFID-equipped players. Seventy-five machine learning models running on AWS process that data in under a second, transforming football into a sport where every movement is measured, modeled, and instantly analyzed. -

SPIE 2023 Applications of Digital Image Processing XLVI2023Super-resolution video coding describes the process of coding video at lower resolution and upsampling the result. This process is included in the AV1 standard, which ensures the same super-resolution process is employed on all receiving devices. Regrettably, the design is limited to horizontal scaling with a maximum scale factor of two. In this paper, we analyze the benefit of enabling two-dimensional

CIKM 20232023Identifying similar products in e-commerce is useful in discovering relationships between products, making recommendations, and in-creasing diversity in search results. Product representation learning is the first step to define a generalized product similarity metric for search. The second step is to extend similarity search to a large scale (e.g., e-commerce catalog scale) without sacrificing quality.

CIKM 2023 Industry Day2023In industrial settings, it is often necessary to achieve language-level accuracy targets. For example, Amazon business teams need to build multilingual product classifiers that operate accurately in all European languages. It is unacceptable for the accuracy of product classification to meet the target in one language (e.g, English), while falling below the target in other languages (e.g, Portuguese). To

CIKM 20232023Traditionally, catalog relationship problems in e-commerce stores have been handled as pairwise classification tasks, which limit the ability of machine learning models to learn from the diverse relationships among different entities in the catalog. In this paper, we leverage heterogeneous graphs and Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) for improving catalog relationship inference. We start from investigating how

CIKM 20232023In conversational AI assistants, SLU models are part of a complex pipeline composed of several modules working in harmony. Hence, an update to the SLU model needs to ensure improvements not only in the model specific metrics but also in the overall conversational assistant. Specifically, the impact on user interaction quality metrics must be factored in, while integrating interactions with distal modules
