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.

RecSys 20222022Sequential recommender systems are becoming widespread in the online retail and streaming industry. These systems are often trained to predict the next item given a sequence of a user’s recent actions, and standard evaluation metrics reward systems that can identify the most probable items that might appear next. However, some recent papers instead evaluate recommendation systems with popularity-sampled

ACM FAccT 20222022Metrics commonly used to assess group fairness in ranking require the knowledge of group membership labels (e.g., whether a job applicant is male or female). Obtaining accurate group membership labels, however, may be costly, operationally difficult, or even infeasible. Where it is not possible to obtain these labels, one common solution is to use proxy labels in their place, which are typically predicted

ICML 20222022Existing out-of-distribution (OOD) detection methods are typically benchmarked on training sets with balanced class distributions. However, in real-world applications, it is common for the training sets to have long-tailed distributions. In this work, we first demonstrate that existing OOD detection methods commonly suffer from significant performance degradation when the training set is long-tail distributed

Interspeech 20222022Streaming recognition and segmentation of multi-party conversations with overlapping speech is crucial for the next generation of voice assistant applications. In this work we address its challenges discovered in the previous work on multi-turn recurrent neural network transducer (MT-RNN-T) with a novel approach, separator-transducer-segmenter (STS), that enables tighter integration of speech separation

Using data augmentation and consistency regularization to improve semi-supervised speech recognitionInterspeech 20222022State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) networks use attention mechanism and optimize transducer loss on labeled acoustic data. Recently, Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) techniques that leverage large amount of unlabeled data have become an active area of interest to improve the performance of ASR networks. In this paper we approach SSL based on the framework of consistency regularization, where
