With a novel parallel-computing architecture, a CAD-to-USD pipeline, and the use of OpenUSD as ground truth, a new simulator can explore hundreds of sensor configurations in the time it takes to test just a few physical setups.
From reimagining storage to serverless computing, Aurora continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in database technology.
Amazon VP and distinguished scientist Byron Cook explains how AWS's new Automated Reasoning checks address key challenges in automated reasoning: translating natural to structured language, defining truth, and definitive reasoning.

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

2024Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown impressive capabilities but also a concerning tendency to hallucinate. This paper presents REFCHECKER, a framework that introduces claim-triplets to represent claims in LLM responses, aiming to detect fine-grained hallucinations. In REFCHECKER, an extractor generates claim-triplets from a response, which are then evaluated by a checker against a reference. We delineate
