The combination of increasing connectivity to the outside world and the lack of inbuilt security mechanisms has made legacy intra-vehicular networks extremely vulnerable to cyberattacks. Consequently, significant research has been devoted to analysing the impact of potential attacks, yielding datasets crucial for devel...
Artifact removal routinely precedes the classification of electrodermal activity (EDA), on the assumption that a cleaner signal supports a better decision. We tested this assumption in a virtual-reality (VR) balance-disturbance task. A residual gating network was trained on a benchmark with expert-corrected EDA, frozen...

Accent classifiers are typically trained with a fixed label inventory and cannot accommodate new accent categories as new data becomes available. Moreover, accented speech corpora often exhibit substantial class imbalance and/or domain shift due to differences in recording conditions across corpora. We present AccentCL...

Bayesian Optimization (BO) has become an established methodology for minimizing black-box functions of a vector input. Often, however, this parameter vector arises from the discretization of an inherently functional relationship. Several recent articles have considered the Functional Bayesian Optimization (FBO) setting...

We present a new perspective on the problem of likelihood approximation within the framework of simulation-based inference that promotes scalable and controllable simulation routines for large-scale data analysis, allows efficient parameter space exploration or smooth interpolation in high-dimensions and, thus, support...
Joint Models simultaneously model longitudinal and survival outcomes, leveraging patterns in patients' longitudinal trajectory to improve the prediction of survival outcomes. The classical parametric joint models, however, rely on fixed parametric assumptions, making them susceptible to bias under model misspecificatio...
Synthetic patient data generation is a promising solution to the dual challenge of data scarcity and privacy constraints in healthcare machine learning. Realistic synthesis of patient-level clinical data requires jointly modeling heterogeneous static covariates, irregularly sampled longitudinal trajectories, and inform...
Robust person re-identification often combines complementary cues such as face, gait, and body shape. While adaptive fusion typically targets query quality, model strength also varies across identities. We introduce identity-conditioned score fusion, a framework that tailors weights to each gallery identity without tra...

IAM policy analysis typically emphasizes the authorization capabilities encoded in a policy, but security analyst review priority may also depend on the behavioral and environmental context surrounding a policy event. This paper evaluates whether contextual information provides measurable incremental value for interpre...
Audio benchmarks are built around short, pre-segmented clips, limiting model design to brief inputs or fixed vocabularies. To close this gap, we introduce Logbook, a benchmark for hour-scale audio understanding, with recordings ranging from ten minutes to six days. Given a continuous audio recording and an event label...

Learning with data in the form of quantum states is of current interest and has led to a variety of problems that boil down to interaction with the available data via quantum measurement and classical post-processing of observed classical outcomes. In quantum measurement PAC learning, one is given a sequence of unknown...
Missing covariates are frequently encountered in supervised learning problems, and classical methods for estimation using such data use carefully chosen imputation schemes for missing data, or likelihood approximations that lead to nonconvex $M$-estimation problems. These methods and their relatives are suitable for sc...

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.
