An ensemble of models, weighted according to their reluctance to flag anomalies, outperforms its predecessors.
Unique end-of-arm tools with three-dimensional force sensors and innovative control algorithms enable robotic arms to “pick” items from and “stow” items in fabric storage pods.
In 2017, IEEE Internet Computing identified a single paper from its publication history that had best withstood the test of time: a 2003 paper called “Amazon.com Recommendations: Item-to-Item Collaborative Filtering”

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association2024Objectives: Patients are increasingly being given direct access to their medical records. However, radiology reports are written for clinicians and typically contain medical jargon, which can be confusing. One solution is for radiologists to provide a “colloquial” version that is accessible to the layperson. Because manually generating these colloquial translations would represent a significant burden for

2024In e-commerce, high consideration search missions typically require careful and elaborate decision making, and involve a substantial research investment from customers. We consider the task of automatically identifying such High Consideration (HC) queries. Detecting such missions or searches enables e-commerce sites to better serve user needs through targeted experiences such as curated QA widgets that

2024 Conference on Digital Experimentation @ MIT (CODE@MIT)2024There are different reasons why experimenters may want to randomize their experiment at a region level. In some cases, treatments cannot be turned on or off at the individual level, therefore requiring randomization at a group level, for which regions can be a good candidate. In other cases, experimenters may worry about network effects or other types of spillovers within a geographic area, and opt to randomize

Representation learning is a fundamental aspect of modern artificial intelligence, driving substantial improvements across diverse applications. While self-supervised contrastive learning has led to significant advancements in fields like computer vision and natural language processing, its adaptation to tabular data presents unique challenges. Traditional approaches often prioritize optimizing model architecture

2024Various types of learning rate (LR) schedulers are being used for training or fine tuning of Large Language Models today. In practice, several mid-flight changes are required in the LR schedule either manually, or with careful choices around warmup steps, peak LR, type of decay and restarts. To study this further, we consider the effect of switching the learning rate at a predetermined time during training
