The Build on Trainium program is a $110 million credit initiative supporting AI research at 30 universities including Stanford, UC Berkeley, UIUC, UCLA, CMU, and MIT, with a focus on Responsible AI.
The Antibody Developability Benchmark is powered by one of the most diverse antibody datasets in public literature, enabling transparent performance evaluation for AI-guided antibody design.
Challenge pushes teams to demonstrate measurable gains in secure-coding performance while building AI agents that advance real-world utility and reliability at scale.
Initiative will fund over 100 doctoral students researching machine learning, computer vision, and natural-language processing at nine universities.

ISACE 20262026Defensive coverage schemes in the National Football League (NFL) represent complex tactical patterns requiring coordinated assignments among defenders who must react dynamically to the offense's passing concept. This paper presents a factorized attention-based transformer model applied to NFL multi-agent play tracking data to predict individual coverage assignments, receiver-defender matchups, and the targeted

AISTATS 20262026Time-series diagnostic reasoning is essential for many applications, yet existing solutions face a persistent gap: general reasoning large language models (GRLMs) possess strong reasoning skills but lack the domain-specific knowledge to understand complex time-series patterns. Conversely, fine-tuned time-series LLMs (TSLMs) understand these patterns but lack the capacity to generalize reasoning for more

2026As large language models (LLMs) continue to scale and new GPUs are released even more frequently, there is an increasing demand for LLM post-training in heterogeneous environments to fully leverage underutilized mid-range or previous-generation GPUs and alleviate the shortage of homogeneous high-end GPUs within a single availability zone. However, achieving high-performance reinforcement learning (RL) training

2026Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in decision-making tasks, where not only accuracy but also reliable confidence estimates are essential. Well-calibrated confidence enables downstream systems to decide when to trust a model and when to defer to fallback mechanisms. In this work, we conduct a systematic study of calibration in two widely used fine-tuning paradigms: supervised fine-tuning

ICML 2026 Workshop on Connecting Low-Rank Representations in AI2026Pretrained models are routinely extended with new vocabulary entries, for example new items in recommender systems and new tokens in large language models (LLMs). We show that jointly training old and new embeddings has a hidden failure mode: old-entry quality degrades while new entries are still learning. On sequential recommendation, old items overfit while new items improve, forcing premature early stopping
