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.

NeurIPS 20222022We show that deep networks trained to satisfy demographic parity often do so through a form of race or gender awareness, and that the more we force a network to be fair, the more accurately we can recover race or gender from the internal state of the network. Based on this observation, we investigate an alternative fairness approach: we add a second classification head to the network to explicitly predict

NeurIPS 20222022Variational autoencoders (VAEs) are a popular framework for modeling complex data distributions; they can be efficiently trained via variational inference by maximizing the evidence lower bound (ELBO), at the expense of a gap to the exact (log-)marginal likelihood. While VAEs are commonly used for disentangled representation learning, it is unclear why ELBO maximization would yield such representations,

IEEE ICMLA 20222022In this paper, we present the design of a robust deep neural network based speech enhancement (DNNSE) solution for joint noise reduction and dereverberation under real-world acoustic conditions. This makes our proposed solution suitable for smart-speaker products that encounter a wide variety of acoustic challenges during their real-world deployment. We provide a systematic introduction to the acoustic

SLT 20222022In expressive speech synthesis it is widely adopted to use latent prosody representations to deal with variability of the data during training. Same text may correspond to various acoustic realizations, which is known as a one-to-many mapping problem in text-to-speech. Utterance, word, or phoneme-level representations are extracted from target signal in an auto-encoding setup, to complement phonetic input

SLT 20222022Differential privacy (DP) is one data protection avenue to safeguard user information used for training deep models by imposing noisy distortion on privacy data. Such a noise perturbation often results in a severe performance degradation in automatic speech recognition (ASR) in order to meet a privacy budget ε. Private aggregation of teacher ensemble (PATE) utilizes ensemble probabilities to improve ASR
