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.

CD-MAKE 20202020Transparent Machine Learning (ML) is often argued to increase trust into predictions of algorithms however the growth of new interpretability approaches is not accompanied by a growth in studies investigating how interaction of humans and Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems benefits from transparency. The right level of transparency can increase trust in an AI system, while inappropriate levels of transparency

ACM L@S 20202020Open navigation online learning systems allow learners to choose the next learning activity. These systems can be instrumented to provide learners with feedback to help them choose the next learning activity. One type of feedback is providing an estimate of the learner’s current skill proficiency. A learner can then choose to skip the remaining learning activities for that skill after achieving proficiency

ECML-PKDD 20202020Machine learning classifiers often require regular tracking of performance measures such as precision, recall, F1-score, etc., for model improvement and diagnostics. The population over which accuracy metrics are evaluated can be too large for a full ground-truth assessment and so only small random samples are chosen for estimation. Ground-truthing often requires human review, which is expensive. Moreover

KDD 20202020We consider the extreme multi-label text classification (XMC) problem: given an input text, return the most relevant labels from a large label collection. For example, the input text could be a product description on Amazon.com and the labels could be product categories. XMC is an important yet challenging problem in the NLP community. Recently, deep pretrained transformer models have achieved state-of-the-art

SIGIR 20202020IR-based Question Answering (QA) systems typically use a sentence selector to extract the answer from retrieved documents. Recent studies have shown that powerful neural models based on the Transformer can provide an accurate solution to Answer Sentence Selection (AS2). Unfortunately, their computation cost prevents their use in real-world applications. In this paper, we show that standard and efficient
