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.

RecSys 20242024Music Search encounters a significant challenge as users increasingly rely on catchy lines from lyrics to search for both new releases and other popular songs. Integrating lyrics into existing lexical search index or using lyrics vector index pose difficulties due to lyrics text length. While lexical scoring mechanisms like BM25 are inadequate and necessitates complex query planning and index schema for

Findings of EMNLP 20242024Large Language Models (LLMs) are widely used in both industry and academia for various tasks, yet evaluating the consistency of generated text responses continues to be a challenge. Traditional metrics like ROUGE and BLEU show a weak correlation with human judgment. More sophisticated metrics using Natural Language Inference (NLI) have shown improved correlations but are complex to implement, require domain-specific

CIKM 2024 Workshop on Generative AI for E-commerce2024Large language models (LLMs) offer substantial potential for automating labeling tasks, showcasing robust zero-shot performance across diverse classification tasks. The LLM-generated reasons that accompany these classifications contain signals about the quality of the classifications. Estimates of quality of these reasons can, in essence, be used to detect potentially incorrect predictions. Conventional

2024Large Language Models (LLMs) have the promise to revolutionize computing broadly, but their complexity and extensive training data also expose significant privacy vulnerabilities. One of the simplest privacy risks associated with LLMs is their susceptibility to membership inference attacks (MIAs), wherein an adversary aims to determine whether a specific data point was part of the model’s training set.

RecSys 2024 Workshop on Strategic and Utility-aware Recommendation2024Accurate attribute extraction is critical for beauty product recommendations and building trust with customers. This remains an open problem, as existing solutions are often unreliable and incomplete. We present a system to extract beauty-specific attributes using end-to-end supervised learning based on beauty product ingredients. A key insight to our system is a novel energy-based implicit model architecture
