New research indicates that AI agents learn compressible models of data, which don’t have enough space to enable memorization.
How the Verus "program verifier", which automatically checks code against a mathematical specification of its functionality, helps increase security assurance in software projects.
Ten years after we founded the Automated Reasoning Group, mathematical logic has moved from academic research into production services that secure millions of customer workloads — demonstrating that systems can be provably correct, not just probably correct.
PatientAgentBench generates a synthetic patient health record, a realistic clinical vignette, and a patient agent that converses with the AI system under evaluation, to capture what a patient-facing agent actually has to do.
A new chiplet architecture, custom die-to-die connectivity, and support for DDR5-8800 memory and the latest PCIe gen6 interconnects improve performance by 25% for general-purpose and agentic AI workloads.

RecSys 2023 Workshop on Causality, Counterfactuals & Sequential Decision-Making (CONSEQUENCES)2023We propose two new estimators for off-policy evaluation of ranking policies, based on the idea of self-normalization. Importantly, these estimators are parameter-free and asymptotically unbiased. Experiments with synthetic data demonstrate that our estimators can be more accurate than other importance weighting estimators, owing to their ability to control variance, while adding minimal bias. From this,

INLG 20232023Prior art investigating task-oriented dialog and automatic generation of such dialogs have focused on single-user dialogs between a single user and an agent. However, there is limited study on adapting such AI agents to multiuser conversations (involving multiple users and an agent). Multi-user conversations are richer than single-user conversations containing social banter and collaborative decision making

RecSys 2023 Workshop on Causality, Counterfactuals & Sequential Decision-Making (CONSEQUENCES)2023“Clipping” (a.k.a. importance weight truncation) is a widely used variance-reduction technique for counterfactual off-policy estimators. Like other variance-reduction techniques, clipping reduces variance at the cost of increased bias. However, unlike other techniques, the bias introduced by clipping is always a downward bias (assuming non-negative rewards), yielding a lower bound on the true expected reward

CIKM 20232023Internet users actively search for trending products on various social media services like Instagram and YouTube which serve as popular hubs for discovering and exploring fashionable and popular items. It is imperative for e-commerce giants to have the capability to accurately identify, predict and subsequently showcase these trending products to the customers. E-commerce stores can effectively cater to

SIGDIAL 20232023The bulk of work adapting transformer models to open-domain dialogue represents dialogue context as the concatenated set of turns in natural language. However, it is unclear if this is the best approach. In this work, we investigate this question by means of an empirical controlled experiment varying the dialogue context format from text-only formats (all recent utterances, summaries, selected utterances
