Reasoning models can generate seven to 10 times as many tokens as necessary on simple tasks, creating unsustainable costs at scale. Amazon's vision for metacognitive AI could fundamentally shift how models allocate computational resources.
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.
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.
How agentic systems work under the hood — and how AWS’s new AgentCore framework implements their essential components.

GrAPL 20232023GNN models on heterogeneous graphs have achieved state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in various graph tasks such as link prediction and node classification. Despite their success in providing SOTA results, popular GNN libraries, such as PyG and DGL, fail to provide fast and efficient solutions for heterogeneous GNN models. One common key bottlenecks of models like RGAT, RGCN, and HGT is relation-specific

ICASSP 20232023Dot-product attention is a core module in the present generation of neural network models, particularly transformers, and is being leveraged across numerous areas such as natural language processing and computer vision. This attention module is comprised of three linear transformations, namely query, key, and value linear transformations, each of which has a bias term. In this work, we study the role of

IntelliSys 20232023Over 80% of corporate value is now comprised of intangibles, of which a large component is human capability (HC). Reflecting this, the SEC has recently mandated HC reporting requirements (SEC, Q4 2020). We use machine learning to build a prototype system to analyze HC using SEC filings and applied it to 5,760 companies. The approach algorithmically generates lexicons for HC concepts, and then applies machine

AISTATS 20232023We propose the first boosting algorithm for offpolicy learning from logged bandit feedback. Unlike existing boosting methods for supervised learning, our algorithm directly optimizes an estimate of the policy’s expected reward. We analyze this algorithm and prove that the excess empirical risk decreases (possibly exponentially fast) with each round of boosting, provided a “weak” learning condition is satisfied

ICASSP 20232023We introduce a variant of the endpoint (EP) detection problem in automatic speech recognition (ASR), which we call the end-of-speech (EOS) estimation. Given an utterance, EOS estimation aims to identify the timestamp when the utterance waveform has fully decayed and is then used to measure the EP latency. Accurate EOS estimation is difficult in large-scale streaming audio scenarios due to the hefty traffic
