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.

The Build on Trainium program is a $110 million credit initiative supporting AI research at 30 universities including Stanford, UC Berkeley, UIUC, UCLA, CMU, and MIT, with a focus on Responsible AI.
The Antibody Developability Benchmark is powered by one of the most diverse antibody datasets in public literature, enabling transparent performance evaluation for AI-guided antibody design.
Challenge pushes teams to demonstrate measurable gains in secure-coding performance while building AI agents that advance real-world utility and reliability at scale.
Initiative will fund over 100 doctoral students researching machine learning, computer vision, and natural-language processing at nine universities.

Interspeech 20222022Generating expressive and contextually appropriate prosody remains a challenge for modern text-to-speech (TTS) systems. This is particularly evident for long, multi-sentence inputs. In this paper, we examine simple extensions to a Transformer-based FastSpeech-like system, with the goal of improving prosody for multi-sentence TTS. We find that long context, powerful text features, and training on multi-speaker

SIGIR 20222022Semantic Sourcing is a well-studied area in web and product search to improve the quality of search results. In the context of Semantic Sourcing in e-commerce search, transformer-based models like BERT (fine-tuned for relevance) can be used to encode the representation of queries into a semantic space where the semantically equivalent entities (i.e., queries for Query Reformulation (QR) or products for

Interspeech 20222022Duration modelling has become an important research problem once more with the rise of non-attention neural text-to-speech systems. The current approaches largely fall back to relying on previous statistical parametric speech synthesis technology for duration prediction, which poorly models the expressiveness and variability in speech. In this paper, we propose two alternate approaches to improve duration

A methodology for correlating annualized replacement rate (ARR) reduction to sustainability benefitsESREL 20222022Reducing the Annualized Replacement Rate (ARR) of a product brings a two-fold benefit to its sustainability impact. Firstly, it reduces the warranty stockpile and therefore a lower carbon footprint required to fulfill warranty replacements. Secondly, it extends the lifetime of the product, which reduces the overall carbon footprint every year during use. This paper discusses a methodology to quantify the

Interspeech 20222022Identification of the language of performance of songs is important for applications such as personalized recommendations, discovery, and search. In this paper, we present an automated multimodal approach to identify the singing language of songs that scales to millions of songs. The proposed model uses a variety of song-level features, including a consumption embedding derived from sessions listening data
