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.

ACL 20232023Various Vision-Language Pre-training (VLP) models (e.g., CLIP, BLIP) have sprung up and dramatically improved the benchmarks of public general-domain datasets (e.g., COCO, Flickr30k). Such models typically learn the cross-modal alignment from large-scale well-aligned image-text datasets. Adapting these models to downstream applications in specific domains, such as fashion, requires fine-grained in-domain

Journal of Machine Learning Research2023Quantile regression is a fundamental problem in statistical learning motivated by a need to quantify uncertainty in predictions, or to model a diverse population without being overly reductive. For instance, epidemiological forecasts, cost estimates, and revenue predictions all benefit from being able to quantify the range of possible values accurately. As such, many models have been developed for this

AAAI 2023 Workshop on Creative AI Across Modalities2023Automatic song writing is a topic of significant practical interest. However, its research is largely hindered by the lack of training data due to copyright concerns and challenged by its creative nature. Most noticeably, prior works often fall short of modeling the cross-modal correlation between melody and lyrics due to limited parallel data, hence generating lyrics that are less singable. Existing works

IEEE ICME 20232023Information explosion has brought us a wide range of data formats and machine learning keeps in constant evolution to develop mechanisms to extract knowledge from them. Modern models in the Deep Learning space have proven to be very successful in multiple applications, yet in the tabular space they fail to provide consistent competitive performance. However, in this work we claim model selection can become

Robotics and Automation Letters2023Object instance segmentation is a key challenge for indoor robots navigating cluttered environments with many small objects. Limitations in 3D sensing capabilities often make it difficult to detect every possible object. While deep learning approaches may be effective for this problem, manually annotating 3D data for supervised learning is time-consuming. In this work, we explore zero-shot instance segmentation
