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.

Journal of Manufacturing Systems2023Localizing defects in products is a critical component of industrial pipelines in manufacturing, retail, and many other industries to ensure consistent delivery of high quality products. Automated anomaly localization systems leveraging computer vision have the potential to replace laborious and subjective manual inspection of products. Recently, there have been tremendous efforts in this research domain

ICLR 20232023This work studies the threats of adversarial attack on multivariate probabilistic forecasting models and viable defense mechanisms. Our studies discover a new attack pattern that negatively impact the forecasting of a target time series via making strategic, sparse (imperceptible) modifications to the past observations of a small number of other time series. To mitigate the impact of such attack, we have

ICLR 2023 Workshop on Deep Learning for Code (DL4C)2023Code understanding and generation require learning the mapping between human and programming languages. As human and programming languages are different in vocabulary, semantic, and, syntax, it is challenging for an autoregressive model to generate a sequence of tokens that is both semantically (i.e., carry the right meaning) and syntactically correct (i.e., in the right sequence order). Inspired by this

Web Conference 2023 Workshop on Natural-Language Processing for Social Media2023Language model pre-training has led to state-of-the-art performance in text summarization. While a variety of pre-trained transformer models are available nowadays, they are mostly trained on documents. In this study we introduce self-supervised pre-training to enhance the BERT model’s semantic and structural understanding of dialog texts from social media. We also propose a semisupervised teacher-student

ICASSP 20232023This work focuses on modelling a speaker’s accent that does not have a dedicated text-to-speech (TTS) frontend, includ-ing a grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) module. Prior work on modelling accents assumes a phonetic transcription is avail-able for the target accent, which might not be the case for low-resource, regional accents. In our work, we propose an approach whereby we first augment the target accent data
