We present GHARP (Real-time Gaussian Head Animation from Large-scale Reconstruction Prior), a method that animates 3D human heads in real time from a few input images of a subject and a driving expression signal. We decouple the problem into an identity stage that builds a representation of the subject's geometry and a...
Actuator degradation turns quadruped locomotion into a coordination problem requiring joints to compensate for lost actuation. Prior work suggests that morphology-aware graph policies improve learning and generalization under body perturbations. We ask whether these benefits can be strengthened by explicitly modeling h...
Despite decades of data quality (DQ) research, a gap remains between DQ dimensions, such as accuracy or completeness, which the literature defines in textual form, and DQ tools, which typically implement low-level checks that are not aligned with these dimensions. ISO/IEC 25024 and ISO/IEC 5259 attempt to bridge this g...
Shortcut learning is a prevalent issue in robot learning. The limited diversity of robot demonstration datasets can mislead policies into exploiting spurious correlations between tasks and irrelevant features, such as viewpoint or background. Collecting sufficiently diverse robot demonstrations is costly and inefficien...

Membership inference attacks (MIAs) threaten the privacy of machine learning (ML) training data by determining whether a sample was used to train a target model. Existing MIAs rely on model outputs, ranging from prediction probabilities to predicted labels, an assumption that can be restrictive for on-device ML systems...
Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are the standard tool for computing expectations under complex probability distributions. Control variates reduce the variance of the resulting estimates, but a good control variate requires solving the Poisson equation of the sampler, which rarely admits a closed-form solution....
We introduce Conversational Voice Aesthetic Model, a speech large language model for describing the voice aesthetics of real or synthetic speech responses in natural conversational contexts. Given a context and a response speech, CVAM describes salient moments that characterize the voice and predicts nine categorical a...
Modeling heterogeneous materials remains a challenge for physics-informed neural networks such as the deep energy method (DEM). The DEM and its variants, here collectively referred to as the neural energy method (NEM), offer a differentiable variational framework. However, their conventional collocation-based implement...
Text-to-image diffusion models are increasingly distilled into few-step variants and being deployed to enable fast inference. However, their ability to generate harmful or undesired content poses significant safety risks. Data-driven unlearning methods suppress targeted generations by fine-tuning model weights using sp...
Conformal prediction provides prediction sets with finite-sample guarantees, but the label verification required for calibration can be expensive. We develop a partial verification method that returns exactly the same prediction sets as complete verification. We characterize calibration certificates, the verified infor...
Long-horizon robotic manipulation is often built by chaining independently trained skills. Although each skill can be reliable in isolation, performance degrades sharply when skills are chained: each downstream skill must start from the state its predecessor leaves behind rather than from its training distribution. We...
Distributionally robust optimization (DRO) protects decisions against distributional uncertainty by optimizing over an ambiguity set, but poorly aligned set geometry can require large radii and yield overly conservative decisions. We introduce diagnostic-transport DRO (DT-DRO), which uses held-out calibration data to a...

Exploring how generative AI could make machine vision more accessible to businesses. The post GenEye in a Box: Making Machine Vision Something You Can Just Ask For appeared first on GPT-Lab.
Students in MIT’s Concourse program delve deeply into the human condition, debate challenging questions, and learn to develop judgment about issues that can’t be quantified.
Training AI agents with reinforcement learning can be challenging because their tools, context, and decision-making are managed by complex frameworks. Agent Lightning connects existing agents to RL training, making it easier to improve them without rebuilding them. The post Agent Lightning v1.0: A 3,500-Line Lightweight Agentic RL Framework for Training Agents with Real Harnesses appeared first on Microsoft Research.
The effort aims to help U.S. learners from kindergarten to community college, with an emphasis on math, making, and the constructive use of AI.
Associate Professor Cathy Wu uses reinforcement learning to help map out improvements to transportation and other multifaceted systems.
