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.
Expanding the mix of synthetic data used to train a tabular foundation model enables it to adapt to new tables without new models and lead the single-model field on the TabArena benchmark.
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.

ICDE 20272027A fundamental challenge of vector search is achieving consistently high recall while minimizing computational costs. Fixed search parameters cause significant performance variance across queries, and conventional evaluation on average recall masks these per-query disparities. We introduce QASP (Query-Adaptive robust vector Search Policy), which predicts the complete recall progression curve per query via

IAAI 20272027Alexa+ devices with screens display animated icons during conversations to visually reinforce what is being said. The original set of these icons was hand-drawn by designers one at a time, a process that produces polished results but is time-consuming and cannot scale to the range of topics encountered in open-ended conversation. We describe an automated pipeline, deployed in production, that generates

2026A common failure mode in long-horizon agentic test-time scaling is error propagation, where factual errors or invalid deductions introduced at intermediate steps persist in the agent's belief state and contaminate later reasoning. Existing test-time scaling methods provide limited control over this process, as they often rely on agents to detect their own mistakes, select among flawed trajectories, or refine

2026Practice often treats automatic metrics for attribution in LLM retrieval-augmented generation as interchangeable. We audit eight automatic scorers — lexical, embedding, and BERTScore baselines alongside entailment/grounding-trained models (clean and FEVER NLI, the checker MiniCheck) — across three evaluation constructs (provenance/topicality, generated-answer attribution, and fact-check entailment), asking

CODE@MIT 20262026Adaptive designs redistribute experiment traffic throughout the experiment, and are used in practice to allow experimentation on a large amount of arms in an A/B test. Our work notes that the requirements on the estimators for such designs can be less strict than the typical unbiasedness that is required in a standard A/B test. We leverage this to introduce daily re-randomization to further increase the
