Large-scale Repository Engineering via Agent-Native Reusable Code Primitives

Large language models equipped with development environments have moved code generation toward repository-scale construction, yet building complete repositories remains difficult because interacting modules, interfaces, configurations, tests, and dependencies must work together. We introduce Code Primitives, agent-nati...

Modeling Robotics Dataset Construction as an Artifact-Based Build Process

Robotic systems generate large volumes of multimodal sensor data, but converting ROS bag recordings into machine learning datasets is often handled by ad hoc sequential scripts, creating engineering overhead and slow iteration cycles. We model dataset construction as an artifact-based build process over a dependency gr...

Empirical Evidence for Simply Connected Decision Regions in Image Classifiers

The topology of a classifier's decision regions determines how inputs with the same predicted label can be connected and deformed without changing that prediction. Prior empirical work constructed paths between same-label images within a single region, but did not examine whether loops bound surfaces within that region...

Component-Adaptive and Lesion-Level Supervision for Improved Small Structure Segmentation in Brain MRI

Small lesions in brain MRI are hard to segment because they occupy a tiny fraction of the volume and are dominated by background and larger lesions during voxel-wise optimization, so a model can reach a high Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) while missing many of them. We propose CATMIL, a training objective that adds...

A Variational Latent-Space Framework for Uncertainty-Aware Spectral Image Emulation

Synthetic spectral image generation is essential for remote sensing simulation and mission design, yet physically based radiative transfer models (RTMs) remain computationally expensive. Existing learning-based emulators reduce this cost, but are mostly deterministic parameter-to-spectrum regressors with limited spatia...

MAdam: Metric-Aware Multi-Objective Adam

Multi-objective optimization (MOO) underlies many machine learning problems, yet MOO solvers across the loss-balancing, gradient-balancing, and Pareto-based families almost universally hand their reconciled directions to Adam~\citep{kingma2015adam}. We show this coupling introduces two systematic gaps between the solve...

Rubix: Global Correspondence-Free Point Set Alignment through Assignment Geometry

The sharp bound of $n(n-1)$ vertices for $n\ge2$ is proved, answering Rote's rotation-assignment open problem, and assignment-based bounds extend the approach to three-dimensional rotations and partial matching at a supplied translation through branch-and-bound.

Temporal Visuo-Tactile Learning for Dexterous Grasp Stability

Results show how rich fingertip sensing and expressive temporal models that capture the dynamics of touch can support learned grasping with multi-fingered hands without explicit contact or force modeling, providing a scalable data-driven path from tactile experience toward stable dexterous manipulation.

Global Average Precision for Representation Learning

Standard information retrieval metrics, such as mean Average Precision (mAP), assess performance one query at a time, based on how the similarities between a query and its positives compare against those with its negatives. The same holds for common representation learning losses, such as InfoNCE and per-query AP surro...

DeepTopoClustering: Unsupervised Derivation of Surface Process Taxonomy from 4D Point Clouds for Topographic Monitoring

4D point clouds acquired by permanent laser scanning (PLS) enable accurate high-frequency monitoring of surface change in dynamic topographic environments. However, existing methods remain limited in organizing detected surface activities into meaningful process types. We propose DeepTopoClustering (DTC), an unsupervis...

ORCA: Hunting Compositional Failures in Text-to-Image Diffusion

Text-to-image diffusion models fail predictably on compositional prompts: attributes bind to the wrong objects, spatial relations invert, and multi-object scenes lose count. Recent architectures already augment CLIP with a T5 encoder precisely because CLIP's contrastive embedding loses compositional structure, yet thes...

A Multi-Source Ultrasound Benchmark Revealing the Limits of Contemporary Self-Supervised Anomaly Detection Methods

Self-supervised anomaly detection is a promising paradigm for medical ultrasound, as normal images are often easier to obtain than exhaustive annotations of all possible pathologies. However, most existing evaluations are limited to a single anatomy or task, making it unclear whether models learn a robust notion of nor...

What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity.  The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
