Detecting intra-operative speech impairment during awake craniotomy is essential for preserving language function. However, automated detection remains challenging because operating-room recordings contain substantial acoustic interference, clinically relevant speech events are rare, and available cohorts are small and...
Self-improving learning systems adapt data selection, optimization, and auxiliary symbolic components, inducing nonstationary objectives outside standard learning assumptions. We introduce \textsc{PRAXIS}, a co-evolutionary framework that models generators, learners, and symbolic archives as interacting dynamical proce...
Tabular in-context learning (ICL) has emerged as a training-free and accurate paradigm for tabular prediction, but current approaches to compressing its in-context examples face an accuracy-throughput tradeoff: fixed subsets can sacrifice accuracy, while query-specific retrieval limits cache reuse and batching across q...

Shared e-scooter services have become a widely adopted urban transport mode. While most users ride responsibly, alcohol intoxication stands out among the factors contributing to severe crashes. Nonetheless, countermeasures remain limited to single-point reaction tests and night bans that suspend the service altogether....

The genome holds the blueprint that governs the biological properties of the cell. Consequently, advancing our knowledge of genomic function is crucial both for a broader understanding of biology and for continued biomedical advances. The success of large language models on natural language and protein sequences has mo...

Future 6G networks aim to expose sensing as a native service by reusing communication infrastructure. We study respiration sensing on a cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) base station, where a 64-antenna channel must be fused into a breathing waveform. The state-of-the-art hand-crafted fusion is ne...

Neural representations can encode more features than they have dimensions, a phenomenon known as superposition. We study the dimension needed to compute Boolean gates from such representations. For a single threshold layer with a Gaussian random dictionary and uniformly random sparse Boolean inputs, we derive sharp dim...

We present TraceRelay, an attention-aligned recurrent architecture that distributes persistent representations over a rolling sequence of low-dimensional traces. Local right looking attention forms increments from lower-layer representations; delivery is delayed until all attended inputs are in the causal past. A fixed...
Neural networks are typically trained using first-order methods and back-propagation. It is unclear whether this approach is optimal for morphological layers whose weight Jacobians are sparse and whose resulting parameter gradients can be poor. In this work, we propose a novel weight update method for morphological neu...
Standard weight decay treats each weight matrix as a vector and ignores its spectral structure. We introduce spectral weight decay, a post-step decoupled nuclear-norm update that applies additive rather than multiplicative spectral shrinkage. We connect the update to approximate proximal descent and show that its sensi...

Multimodal meme understanding is increasingly used to analyze socially sensitive content, yet existing models often exhibit biased behavior when interpreting economic dependence and social roles under ambiguity. Many memes express economic relationships through sparse text or symbolic visual cues, providing insufficien...
We describe a 4-tensor attention model that predicts the next semantic state of a scene, for video generation and robot planning. A window of states has positions (x, t) and two fibers, a semantic fiber and a temporal-context fiber, and one softmax normalizes attention jointly over the window. Frames and an agent's sit...

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.
