Manual attendance methods, such as paper or register-based systems, take a lot of time, can lead to errors, and are easy to falsify. Face recognition is more reliable, but it frequently struggles in classrooms because lighting and other conditions can vary. Face recognition datasets are designed for regulated environme...

Intrathecal contrast-enhanced MRI tracks how a cerebrospinal-fluid tracer spreads through the brain, but requires repeated scans over 24--48\,h. Forecasting enhancement from a pre-contrast scan could one day help select patients for intrathecal drug treatment and plan their dose. We ask how much of the enhancement at a...

Few-shot learning research is predominantly evaluated on accuracy alone, with limited attention to the parameter and training-sample budgets required to reach that accuracy - a real constraint for practitioners without large-scale compute. We present an ultra-lightweight (22,249-34,917 parameter) spatial-relational arc...
Instruction hierarchy (IH) alignment teaches language models to prioritize higher-level instructions when inputs conflict. While studied primarily in text-only settings, vision-language models (VLMs) introduce new challenges for IH: instructions may be embedded in images, split across modalities, visually transformed,...

Self-attention is central to modern Transformer architectures, but its dense dot-product formulation makes it difficult to identify which internal directions are structurally important and which can be modified without disrupting the model. SVD-Inspired Attention (SVDA) addresses part of this problem by introducing a l...

Neural networks, both convolution or transformer based, are essential for modern computer vision systems. However, they are vulnerable to small perturbations, almost imperceptible to humans, which significantly alter the model's prediction. These adversarial attacks are often considered to be a significant threat to th...

Test-time adaptation (TTA) addresses distribution shift using only unlabeled test data. Existing methods typically adapt pretrained models by updating their parameters, limiting both what is adapted and where adaptation can occur within the network. We instead keep the pretrained network frozen and steer its intermedia...

Dense pass surfaces give, for every pitch cell, whether a pass played there would arrive, whether the carrier would choose it, and what the possession would then be worth. The networks that draw them read the state as a raster of per-cell counts, losing where inside a cell each player stands. LiDAR detectors, bird's-ey...
This paper introduces a multi-temporal tabular dataset derived from satellite images to map burned areas in the Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park, in Goi\'as, Brazil, covering the years 2020 to 2022. The dataset contains blue, green, red, and near-infrared bands, as well as the BAI, EVI, GEMI, NDVI, and NDWI spectral...

Coreset selection picks a representative subset of the labeled training set to make training cheaper. However, it is usually evaluated by downstream accuracy at a fixed subset size, ignoring both the time spent selecting the subset and the training recipe behind each reported number. We introduce an end-to-end benchmar...
Large language model-driven remote sensing (RS) agents offer a promising approach to automating geospatial analysis. However, lightweight RS agents based on compact language models struggle with multi-step interactive tasks due to loss of long-horizon states, inefficient environmental feedback utilization, and sparse o...

Mixed-precision quantization requires discrete allocation of weight and activation bit-widths, followed by recovery of the selected network. We develop a task-aware quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) surrogate with separate weight and activation profiles, a bit-operation (BOP) cost, and selected structu...

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity. The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
Computer scientist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist will collaborate with the MIT Schwarzman College of Computing to advance AI and scientific discovery.
