The Build on Trainium program is a $110 million credit initiative supporting AI research at 30 universities including Stanford, UC Berkeley, UIUC, UCLA, CMU, and MIT, with a focus on Responsible AI.
The Antibody Developability Benchmark is powered by one of the most diverse antibody datasets in public literature, enabling transparent performance evaluation for AI-guided antibody design.
Challenge pushes teams to demonstrate measurable gains in secure-coding performance while building AI agents that advance real-world utility and reliability at scale.
Initiative will fund over 100 doctoral students researching machine learning, computer vision, and natural-language processing at nine universities.

ACM SIGSPATIAL 20252025In this paper we propose a novel optimization framework for store shelf space planning, specifically tailored for physical stores. The framework leverages machine learning and data-driven techniques to optimize shelf space allocation, aiming to maximize both short-term and long-term business metrics such as sales and profit. Our approach consists of three key components: a geospatial space elasticity model

RecSys 20262026Traditional online A/B experimentation limits the number of treatments that can be evaluated concurrently. Bandit-based adaptive experimentation algorithms address this by dynamically reallocating traffic across an order of magnitude more treatments. Yet existing methods involve a fundamental trade-off: single-metric Thompson Sampling-based methods are robust to novelty effects but cannot accommodate multiple

arXiv2026We introduce a vocabulary for automated research systems built from one or more agents to make their design choices easier to describe and compare. The vocabulary specifies who the agents are, which operations the harness exposes, who may invoke them, how agents communicate, what state is visible within and across runs, how the next action is chosen, how a run begins, and how outputs are scored. A trajectory

ICCV 2025 Workshop on Computer Vision in Advertising and Marketing2025The rapidly growing global advertising and marketing industry demands innovative machine learning systems that balance accuracy with efficiency. Recommendation systems, crucial to many platforms, require careful considerations and potential enhancements. While Large Language Models (LLMs) have transformed various domains, their potential in sequential recommendation systems remains underexplored. Pioneering

ICLR 2026 Workshop on Multimodal Intelligence2026Despite the remarkable success of the LLaVA architecture for vision-language tasks, its design inherently struggles to effectively integrate visual features due to the inherent mismatch between text and vision modalities. We tackle this issue from a novel perspective in which the LLM not only serves as a language model but also a powerful vision encoder. To this end, we present LLaViT–Large Language Models
