An ensemble of models, weighted according to their reluctance to flag anomalies, outperforms its predecessors.
Unique end-of-arm tools with three-dimensional force sensors and innovative control algorithms enable robotic arms to “pick” items from and “stow” items in fabric storage pods.
In 2017, IEEE Internet Computing identified a single paper from its publication history that had best withstood the test of time: a 2003 paper called “Amazon.com Recommendations: Item-to-Item Collaborative Filtering”

2025Effective customer support requires domain-specific solutions tailored to users’ issues. However, LLMs like ChatGPT, while excelling in open-domain tasks, often face challenges such as hallucinations, lack of domain compliance, and generic solutions when applied to specialized contexts. RAG-based systems, designed to combine domain context from unstructured knowledge bases (KBs) with LLMs, often struggle

WACV 2025 Workshop on Physical Retail in AI2025This paper investigates multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) for predicting product features from images, comparing fine-tuned versus proprietary models. We introduce two domain-specific benchmarks: (1) Inductive Bias vs. Image Evidence (IBIE) Benchmark, which evaluates MLLMs’ ability to distinguish between image-derived features and latent knowledge, and (2) Catalog-bench, which assesses feature prediction

2025General vision-language models (VLMs) trained on web data struggle to understand and converse about real-world e-commerce product images. We propose a cost-efficient approach for collecting training data to train a generative VLM for e-commerce product images. The key idea is to leverage large-scale, loosely-coupled image-text pairs from e-commerce stores, use a pre-trained LLM to generate multi-modal instruction-following

2025Automated construction of shopping cart from medical prescriptions is a vital prerequisite for scaling up online pharmaceutical services in emerging markets due to the high prevalence of paper prescriptions that are challenging for customers to interpret. We present RxLens, a multi-step end-end Large Language Model (LLM)-based deployed solution for automated pharmacy cart construction comprising multiple

Large Language Models (LLMs) are known to hallucinate and generate non-factual outputs which can undermine user trust. Traditional methods to directly mitigate hallucinations, such as representation editing and contrastive decoding, often require additional training data and involve high implementation complexity. While ensemble-based approaches harness multiple LLMs to tap into the "wisdom of crowds",
