This research looks at why Predictive Inverse Dynamics Models often outperform standard Behavior Cloning in imitation learning. By using simple predictions of what happens next, PIDMs reduce ambiguity and learn from far fewer demonstrations.
Microsoft Research unveils Paza, a human-centered speech pipeline, and PazaBench, the first leaderboard for low-resource languages. It covers 39 African languages and 52 models and is tested with communities in real settings.
AI can help generate medical image reports, but today’s models struggle with varying reporting schemes. Learn how UniRG uses reinforcement learning to boost performance of medical vision-language models.
Argos improves multimodal RL by evaluating whether an agent’s reasoning aligns with what it observes over time. The approach reduces visual hallucinations and produces more reliable, data-efficient agents for real-world applications.
OptiMind is a small language model that converts business operation challenges, described naturally, into mathematical formulations that optimization software can solve. It reduces formulation time & errors & enables fast, privacy-preserving local use.
By decoupling how agents work from how they’re trained, Agent Lightning turns each step an agent takes into data for reinforcement learning. This makes it easy for developers to improve agent performance with almost zero code changes.
Promptions helps developers add dynamic, context-aware controls to chat interfaces so users can guide generative AI responses. It lets users shape outputs quickly without writing long instructions.
Using AI-generated virtual populations, Microsoft researchers uncovered hidden cellular patterns that could reshape how we understand and treat cancer.
New research explores two ways to give AI agents stronger privacy safeguards grounded in contextual integrity. One adds lightweight, inference-time checks; the other builds contextual awareness directly into models through reasoning and RL.
Fara-7B is our first agentic small language model for computer use. This experimental model includes robust safety measures to aid responsible deployment. Despite its size, Fara-7B holds its own against larger, more resource-intensive agentic systems.
MMCTAgent enables dynamic multimodal reasoning with iterative planning and reflection. Built on Microsoft’s AutoGen framework, it integrates language, vision, and temporal understanding for complex tasks like long video and image analysis.
BlueCodeAgent is an end-to-end blue-teaming framework built to boost code security using automated red-teaming processes, data, and safety rules to guide LLMs’ defensive decisions. Dynamic testing reduces false positives in vulnerability detection.
