    Entities can be expressed in diverse formats, such as texts, images, or column names and cell values in tables. While existing entity linking (EL) models work well on per modality configuration, such as text-only EL, visual grounding, or schema linking, it is more challenging to design a unified model for diverse modality configurations. To bring various modality configurations together, we constructed

    Ensembling is among the most popular tools in machine learning (ML) due to its effectiveness in minimizing variance and thus improving generalization. Most ensembling methods for black-box base learners fall under the umbrella of “stacked generalization,” namely training an ML algorithm that takes the inferences from the base learners as input. While stacking has been widely applied in practice, its theoretical

    E-commerce queries are often short and ambiguous. Consequently, query understanding often uses query rewriting to disambiguate user input queries. While using e-commerce search tools, users tend to enter multiple searches, which we call context, before purchasing. These history searches contain contextual insights about users’ true shopping intents. Therefore, modeling such contextual information is critical

    We propose CHRT (Control Hidden Representation Transformation) — a controlled language generation framework that steers large language models to generate text pertaining to certain attributes (such as toxicity). CHRT gains attribute control by modifying the hidden representation of the base model through learned transformations. We employ a contrastive-learning framework to learn these transformations that

    Despite exciting progress in causal language models, the expressiveness of their representations is largely limited due to poor discrimination ability. To remedy this issue, we present CONTRACLM, a novel contrastive learning framework at both the token-level and the sequence-level. We assess CONTRACLM on a variety of downstream tasks. We show that CONTRACLM enhances the discrimination of representations

Are you passionate about giving customers the richest, most inspiring experience in their shopping journey? Do you like to dive deep to understand how customer-centric solutions drive measurable results? Do you enjoy working closely with the business and software engineers to design rigorous experiments, build the data infrastructure behind them, and translate results into decisions? You are in the right place! Come join our Prime & Marketing Analytics and Science (PRIMAS) team, where your work will directly impact millions of customers. The EU Marketing & Prime organization is looking for a Data Scientist to join the PRIMAS team. This role sits at the intersection of applied statistics and large-scale analytics — you'll design experiments and causal models, and also own the data pipelines, metrics, and reporting infrastructure that make those results usable across the business. The PRIMAS team provides a comprehensive understanding of customer segments, affinities, and lifetime value. We use data science tools and advanced statistical techniques to study customer purchase and engagement behaviors, and generate actionable insights on where, when, and how we deliver products and programs to customers. We help increase customer engagement, sales, and marketing efficiency, and our systems are built entirely in-house on automated large-scale analytics infrastructure. You will design, launch, and measure experiments across marketing channels (SEM/SEO, Affiliates, Display, Social, Mobile, Email, Onsite, etc.), engagement products, and customer segments. You will improve our understanding of customer behavior, run rigorous power and minimum detectable effect (MDE) analyses to size experiments correctly, and build the causal and conversion models that value and target our marketing — then build the pipelines and dashboards that keep those signals flowing reliably to stakeholders and downstream systems. You will work at the forefront of consumer analytics, tackling some of the hardest measurement problems in the industry alongside strong scientists, statisticians, and software engineers. Key job responsibilities 1. Design and implement scalable, statistically rigorous experiments (A/B, geo, holdout, quasi-experiments) to measure marketing incrementality across channels. 2. Perform power analysis and minimum detectable effect (MDE) calculations to determine experiment sample sizes, durations, and design trade-offs before launch. 3. Build causal and treatment-effect models that produce conversion and valuation signals consumed by downstream bidding and budgeting systems. 4. Building the ETL, metric definitions, and datasets that make results scalable, extensible, and repeatable rather than one-off analyses. 5. Develop measurement frameworks that quantify the true, platform-independent contribution of marketing over time, and build the dashboards and reporting that keep those metrics visible to the business. 6. Apply statistical, mathematical, and machine learning techniques to solve ambiguous business problems where the right approach isn't obvious. 7. Analyze experiment results for validity — inspecting distributions, checking for sample ratio mismatch, exploring covariate balance, and tracking down the source of anomalies. 8. Communicate experiment design, results, and trade-offs clearly to business and leadership audiences, including inputs into business reviews, and influence decisions and technical direction across teams. 9. Establish scalable, repeatable processes and best practices for experiment design, data modeling, and analysis.

Amazon Advertising Trust is on a mission to redefine how trust is enforced at internet scale, and we are looking for exceptional scientists to help lead the way. We are building systems that reason about advertising content the way a trained human would, at a industry leading volume and speed, and that keep working when the rules change underneath them. At Ads Trust Science we leverage machine learning, generative AI, and large-scale retrieval to solve some of the most complex decision problems for ads worldwide. Every ad shown across Amazon's owned-and-operated properties and third-party networks, in every format and every global marketplace, depends on decisions our systems make. We are just getting started. As a Senior Applied Scientist you will be at the forefront of this work. You will own science problems end to end, bridging the gap between research and production impact. You will not be handed a specification. You will be given a customer problem, a system that partly solves it, and the latitude to decide what to build next. This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of multimodal understanding, large language models, and large-scale retrieval, on a problem where the science is genuinely unsettled. You will work alongside scientists whose models run in front of hundreds of millions of customers, at a scale that changes which approaches are even possible. A day in the life - Ship a model into production, then find and document where it fails once real traffic reaches it. - Drive the technical discussion, inside your team and with partner teams, on how to close that gap. - Bring a fresh angle to a problem that is not yours and help a peer get further than they would have alone, building trust across the team in the process. - Mentor while staying hands-on. At this level the design and the code are both yours. About the team Ads Trust Science is a group of scientists who would rather change what the team measures than optimise the wrong number. We value curiosity, rigour, and a bias for action. We expect people to disagree with evidence, to say clearly what did not work, and to iterate quickly toward the solutions that matter.
