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.

KDD 2023 Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Computational Advertising (AdKDD)2023This paper proposes a learning model of online ad auctions that allows for the following four key realistic characteristics of contemporary online auctions: (1) ad slots can have different values and click-through rates depending on users’ search queries, (2) the number and identity of competing advertisers are unobserved and change with each auction, (3) advertisers only receive partial, aggregated feedback

UAI 20232023We study algorithms for online change-point detection (OCPD), where samples that are potentially heavy-tailed, are presented one at a time and a change in the underlying mean must be detected as early as possible. We present an algorithm based on clipped Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), that works even if we only assume that the second moment of the data generating process is bounded. We derive guarantees

IEEE RO-MAN 20232023For social robots like Astro which interact with and adapt to the daily movements of users within the home, realistic simulation of human activity is needed for feature development and testing. This paper presents a framework for simulating daily human activity patterns in home environments at scale, supporting manual configurability of different personas or activity patterns, variation of activity timings

IEEE RO-MAN 20232023For social robots to successfully integrate into daily life in home environments, they will need reliable models of the way people perceive and use space in the home. This paper explores the problem of obtaining annotated training data at scale for subjective judgments about spatial locations. Focusing on the use case of identifying good and bad parking spots for a social robot operating in a home environment

ESREL 20232023Understanding cumulative device activity over the lifetime of consumer electronic products is critical in two ways. First, it determines the extent to which a product maximizes utilization during its use, which is a critical consideration of circular products. Second, it allows for better estimations of the use phase carbon footprint, which is valuable in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of consumer electronics
