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.

ICASSP 20232023We introduce a variant of the endpoint (EP) detection problem in automatic speech recognition (ASR), which we call the end-of-speech (EOS) estimation. Given an utterance, EOS estimation aims to identify the timestamp when the utterance waveform has fully decayed and is then used to measure the EP latency. Accurate EOS estimation is difficult in large-scale streaming audio scenarios due to the hefty traffic

ICRA 20232023This paper addresses the challenge of reconstructing a scene with a neural radiance field (NeRF) for robot vision and scene understanding using multiple modalities. Researchers have introduced the use of NeRF to represent an object for synthesizing and rendering novel views of complex scenes by optimizing a 3-D radiance field for ray casting and rendering for 2-D RGB images. However, using RGB images alone

ICASSP 20232023Neural contextual biasing for end-to-end neural ASR transducers has shown significant improvements in the recognition of named entities, such as contact names or device names. However, it comes with the cost of increased compute, as the biasing layers (which are usually based on cross-attention) add complexity to the neural transducers. In this paper, we propose gated contextual biasing models that can

The Web Conference 2023 Workshop on Machine Learning for Streaming Media2023To improve Amazon Music podcast services and customer engagements, we introduce Entity-Linked Topic Extraction (ELTE) to identify well-known entity and event topics from podcast episodes. An entity can be a person, organization, work-of-art, etc., while an event, such as the Opioid epidemic, occurs at specific point(s) in time. ELTE first extracts key-phrases from episode title and description metadata.

EACL 20232023Long video content understanding poses a challenging set of research questions as it involves long-distance, cross-media reasoning and knowledge awareness. In this paper, we present a new benchmark for this problem domain, targeting the task of deep movie/TV question answering (QA) beyond previous work’s focus on simple plot summary and short video moment settings. We define several baselines based on direct
