This content was previously published by Nature Portfolio and Springer Nature Communities (opens in new tab) on Nature Portfolio Earth and Environment Community (opens in new tab). Improving our ability to forecast the weather and climate is of interest to all sectors of the economy and…
The use of self-supervision from image-text pairs has been a key enabler in the development of scalable and flexible vision-language AI models in not only general domains but also in biomedical domains such as radiology. The goal in the radiology setting is to produce rich…
In this issue: Peter Lee discusses AI in medicine. Plus, new research on data inference privacy in machine learning; PII leakage in language models; and automatic prompt organization with gradient descent and beam search.
Providing healthcare in remote or rural areas is challenging, particularly specialized medicine and surgical procedures. Patients may need to travel long distances just to get to medical facilities and to communicate with caregivers. They may not arrive in time to receive essential information before their…
In this edition: New research explores the causal ability of LLMs and DNA storage in thermoresponsive capsules; a talk on human-centered AI; and a CFP for funding for LLM productivity research projects from the Microsoft New Future of Work Initiative.
This research paper was accepted by the eighth ACM/IEEE Conference on Internet of Things Design and Implementation (opens in new tab) (IoTDI), which is a premier venue on IoT. The paper describes a framework that leverages cloud resources to execute large deep neural network (DNN) models…
Microsoft Editor provides AI-powered writing assistance to millions of users around the world. One of its features that writers of all levels and domains rely on is the grammar checker, which detects grammar errors in a user's writing and offers suggested corrections and explanations of…
This research was accepted by the IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) (opens in new tab), which is a forum for researchers, practitioners, and educators to gather, present, and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, experiences, and issues in the field of software engineering.…
The ways in which people are able to interact with technologies can have a profound effect on a technology’s utility and adoptability. Building computing tools and services around people’s natural styles of work, communication, and play can give technology the value it needs to have…
EuroSys 2023 (opens in new tab) is the premier systems conference in Europe, and 2023 marks its 18th edition. Sponsored by ACM SIGOPS Europe and hosted May 8 to May 12, the conference covers a wide range of topics, including operating systems, real-time and networked…
In this issue: Microsoft researchers win four more awards; AutoRXN automates calculations of molecular systems; LLM accelerator losslessly improves the efficiency of autoregressive decoding; a frequency domain approach to predict power system transients.
Diffusion models have been used to generate photorealistic images and short videos, compose music, and synthesize speech. In a new paper, Microsoft Researchers explore how they can be used to imitate human behavior in interactive environments.
