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.

SIGIR 20232023The substitute-based recommendation is widely used in E-commerce to provide better alternatives to customers. However, existing re-search typically uses customer behavior signals like co-view and view-but-purchase-another to capture the substitute relationship. Despite its intuitive soundness, such an approach might ignore the functionality and characteristics of products. In this paper, we adapt substitute

ICLR 2023 Workshop on Mathematical and Empirical Understanding of Foundation Models2023Despite their high levels of robustness, Contrastive Language-Image Models (CLIP) still require some form of downstream adaptation when applied to tasks sufficiently out-of-domain with respect to their training set. Recent methods propose light-weight adapters on the model features, primarily focused on the few-shot domain. All such approaches however, require per-task hyperparameter tuning which necessitates

SIGIR 20232023In this paper we introduce SimTDE, a simple knowledge distillation framework to compress sentence embeddings transformer models with minimal performance loss and significant size and latency reduction. SimTDE effectively distills large and small transformers via a compact token embedding block and a shallow encoding block, connected with a projection layer, relaxing dimension match requirement. SimTDE simplifies

CVPR 2023 Workshop on Computer Vision for Fashion, Art, and Design2023This paper presents Shape of You (SoY), an approach to improve the accuracy of 3D body shape estimation for vision-based clothing recommendation systems. While existing methods have successfully estimated 3D poses, there remains a lack of work in precise shape estimation, particularly for diverse human bodies. To address this gap, we propose two loss functions that can be readily integrated into parametric

CVPR 2023 Workshop on Multimodal Content Moderation (MMCM)2023Online advertisement industry aims to build a preference for a product over its competitors by making consumers aware of the product at internet scale. However, the ads that violate the applicable laws and location specific regulations can have serious business impact with legal implications. At the same time, customers are at risk of getting exposed to egregious ads resulting in a bad user experience.
