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.

Interspeech 20202020Neural models have yielded state-of-the-art results in deciphering spoken language understanding (SLU) problems; however, these models require a significant amount of domain-specific labeled examples for training, which is prohibitively expensive. While pre-trained language models like BERT have been shown to capture a massive amount of knowledge by learning from unlabeled corpora and solve SLU using fewer

Interspeech 20202020Automatic dubbing aims at replacing all speech contained in a video with speech in a different language, so that the result sounds and looks as natural as the original. Hence, in addition to conveying the same content of an original utterance (which is the typical objective of speech translation), dubbed speech should ideally also match its duration, the lip movements and gestures in the video, timbre,

Interspeech 20202020Compression and quantization is important to neural networks in general and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems in particular, especially when they operate in real-time on resource-constrained devices. By using fewer number of bits for the model weights, the model size becomes much smaller while inference time is reduced significantly, with the cost of degraded performance. Such degradation can be

Interspeech 20202020Domain-agnostic Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems suffer from the issue of mistranscribing domain-specific words, which leads to failures in downstream tasks. In this paper, we present a post-editing ASR error correction method using the Transformer model for entity mention correction and retrieval. Specifically, we propose a novel augmented variant of the Transformer model that encodes both the

Interspeech 20202020We consider the problem of spoken language understanding (SLU) of extracting natural language intents and associated slot arguments or named entities from speech that is primarily directed at voice assistants. Such a system subsumes both automatic speech recognition (ASR) as well as natural language understanding (NLU). An end-to-end joint SLU model can be built to a required specification opening up the
