Customer-obsessed science

Accurately quantifying greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from products and business activities is crucial for organizations to measure their environmental impact and undertake mitigation actions. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is the scientific discipline for estimating the environmental impact of products throughout their entire life cycle, from raw material extraction to end-of-life. Measuring the emissions

Utilizing Large Language Models (LLM) as chatbots in diverse business scenarios often presents the challenge of maintaining topic continuity. Abrupt shifts in topics can lead to poor user experiences and inefficient utilization of computational resources. In this paper, we present a topic continuity model aimed at assessing whether a response aligns with the initial conversation topic. Our model is built

AI agents powered by large language models (LLMs) have shown strong capabilities in problem solving. Through combining many intelligent agents, multi-agent collaboration has emerged as a promising approach to tackle complex, multi-faceted problems that exceed the capabilities of single AI agents. However, designing the collaboration protocols and evaluating the effectiveness of these systems remains a significant

Despite Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) showing promising capability in leveraging external knowledge, a comprehensive evaluation of RAG systems is still challenging due to the modular nature of RAG, evaluation of long-form responses and reliability of measurements. In this paper, we propose a fine-grained evaluation framework, RAGChecker, that incorporates a suite of diagnostic metrics for both the

Recently the semiconductor industry has been alerted by hyperscaler companies reporting impact of field errors in megascale datacenters. They tend to be elusive and very difficult to detect until they affect a particular application several days or months after the IC has been deployed in a fleet. Although the cause of such errors can be manifold, ranging from test escapes and design marginalities to design
