Chunked prefills & decode-maximal batching boost LLM inference; DragNUWA combines text, image, and trajectory for fine-grained video content control; reconstructing images from human brain signals; structural inequalities in creator-audience relationships.
Microsoft researchers are introducing AutoGen, a framework for simplifying the orchestration, optimization, and automation of workflows for large language model (LLM) applications—potentially transforming and extending what LLMs can do.
This research paper was presented at the 17th European Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty (opens in new tab), a premier forum for advances in the theory and practice of reasoning under uncertainty. In the field of reasoning under uncertainty, probabilistic…
Editor’s note, Sept. 28, 2023 – The founding collaborators list was updated to correct omissions and the scientific foundation model graph was updated to correct information. In the next decade, deep learning may revolutionize the natural sciences, enhancing our capacity to model and predict natural occurrences.…
Editor’s note, Sept. 19, 2023 – The number of papers accepted at SIGCOMM was updated to correct a factual error. Modern applications heavily rely on robust network infrastructure, requiring continuous innovation. In this evolving landscape, Microsoft is at the forefront, spearheading innovation efforts in networking…
In this issue: Efficient polyglot analytics on semantic data aids query performance; generative retrieval for conversational question answering improves dialogue-based interfaces; a new tool uses ML to address capacity degradation in lithium-ion batteries.
This research paper was presented at the 28th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming (opens in new tab) (ICFP), a premier forum for discussing design, implementations, principles, and uses of functional programming. Functional programming languages offer a host of advantages, such as ensuring memory…
Gender, race, and age disparities in AI-generated images persist. This AIES 2023 study on text-to-image models shows that even basic prompts can lead to underrepresentation, calling for responsible bias mitigation strategies.
Retrosynthesis analysis is a critical task in organic chemistry and central to many important industries. It primarily involves decomposing a target molecule into commercially available molecules step by step. Since synthesis strategies can be quite diverse and strategic, retrosynthesis planning with expert knowledge has long…
New evaluation methods and a commitment to continual improvement are musts if we’re to build multimodal AI systems that advance human goals. Learn about cutting-edge research into the responsible development and use of multimodal AI at Microsoft.
Microsoft researchers are proposing a new way to ensure greater trust and accountability in email, texts, direct messages on social platforms, even phone calls, to help mitigate sophisticated threats from AI-related scams and fraud.
A new quartet of AI compilers: Rammer, Roller, Welder, and Grinder, tackle a range of compiler optimization challenges based on the same tile abstraction, providing a comprehensive solution to connect AI models with hardware accelerators.
