Trained on millions of hours of data from Amazon fulfillment centers and sortation centers, Amazon’s new DeepFleet models predict future traffic patterns for fleets of mobile robots.
A new philosophy for developing LLM architectures reduces energy requirements, speeds up runtime, and preserves pretrained-model performance.
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.
Using ensembles of agents to generate and refine interactions annotated with chains of thought improves performance on a battery of benchmarks by an average of 29%.
Language models inspired by specialized processing regions in the brain offer significant time and cost savings.

2024Task-oriented Dialog (ToD) systems have to solve multiple subgoals to accomplish user goals, whereas feedback is often obtained only at the end of the dialog. In this work, we propose SUIT (= SUbgoal-aware ITerative Training), an iterative training approach for improving ToD systems. We sample dialogs from the model we aim to improve and determine subgoals that contribute to dialog success using distant

2024Dataset distillation is a process aimed at condensing datasets while preserving essential characteristics. In the text domain, prevailing methods typically generate distilled data as embedding vectors, which are not human-readable. This approach simplifies optimization but limits the transferability of distilled data across different model architectures. To address this limitation, we introduce a model-agnostic

2024News recommendation is a challenging task that involves personalization based on the interaction history and preferences of each user. Recent works have leveraged the power of pretrained language models (PLMs) to directly rank news items by using inference approaches that predominately fall into three categories: pointwise, pairwise, and listwise learning-to-rank. While pointwise methods offer linear inference

Creating children’s stories through text generation is a creative task that requires stories to be both entertaining and suitable for young audiences. However, since current story generation systems often rely on pre-trained language models fine-tuned with limited story data, they may not always prioritize child-friendliness. This can lead to the unintended generation of stories containing problematic elements

2024 Conference on Digital Experimentation @ MIT (CODE@MIT)2024Many data-driven companies measure the impact of product groups and allocate resources across them based on the estimated impacts of features they launch via A/B tests. In this doc, we show that, when based on a standard frequentist estimator of the impact of features, this practice can significantly overstate the impact of product groups and distort the allocation of resources. When this practice is instead
