Runtime optimizations and a thorough evaluation process driven by agentic AI help ensure that models written in PyTorch will execute efficiently and reliably on Trainium systems.
Using the Neuron Kernel Interface, a Reactor–AWS collaboration tackled the dynamic shapes, memory access patterns, and cache management that make real-time autoregressive diffusion hard—building techniques that generalize across models.
Three new papers from Amazon Bio Discovery address bottlenecks in AI-driven antibody engineering, from benchmarking binding predictors to experimentally validating de novo design.
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.

NeurIPS 2020 Workshop on SpicyFL2020We study privacy in federated learning systems where the model is partitioned into global and local components, the latter of which are personalized for each participating client and never shared. This setting suggests a new type of privacy breach: that the server might learn a client’s local model from updates to the global model. Using on-device recommendation as a motivating example, we show that this

NeurIPS 2020 Workshop on Privacy Preserving Machine Learning2020Although machine learning (ML) is widely used for predictive tasks, there are important scenarios in which ML cannot be used or at least cannot achieve its full potential. A major barrier to adoption is the sensitive nature of predictive queries. Individual users may lack sufficiently rich datasets to train accurate models locally but also be unwilling to send sensitive queries to commercial services that

NeurIPS 20202020Automated machine learning (AutoML) can produce complex model ensembles by stacking, bagging, and boosting many individual models like trees, deep networks, and nearest neighbor estimators. While highly accurate, the resulting predictors are large, slow, and opaque as compared to their constituents. To improve the deployment of AutoML on tabular data, we propose FAST-DAD to distill arbitrarily-complex ensemble

SLT 20212021Developing machine learning algorithms to understand personto-person engagement can result in natural user experiences for communal devices such as Amazon Alexa. Among other cues such as voice activity and gaze, a person’s audio-visual expression that includes tone of the voice and facial expression serves as an implicit signal of engagement between parties in a dialog. This study investigates deep-learning

The International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR)2020In a hybrid key encapsulation construction, multiple independent key encapsulation mechanisms are combined in a way that ensures the resulting key is secure according to the strongest mechanism. Such constructions can combine mechanisms that are secure in different settings and achieve the combined security of all mechanisms. For example classical and post-quantum mechanisms can be combined in order to
