In the best-arm identification problem, an algorithm adaptively selects arms to find the arm of the largest mean reward. Successive Rejects (SR) is a simple fixed-budget best-arm identification algorithm that eliminates one candidate arm at each phase. At first glance, SR seems to have limited adaptivity, since it foll...
Radio technosignature searches rely on machine learning detectors to shrink the candidate pool before a human looks at it. They are validated on held-out data from the training distribution, which excludes the cases where they are most likely to fail: a technosignature has unknown morphology, and terrestrial interferen...
Current heterogeneity-aware training systems for large models balance workloads by assigning unequal numbers of layers across pipeline stages, a strategy aimed at equalizing execution time through a unique pipeline configuration. However, this approach fails to address critical memory constraints and suffers from inher...

Standard Bayesian experimental design (BED) methods assume the experimenter alone will act on the data, choosing the best action given their own beliefs and goals. In practice, data are often acted on by external parties whose procedures the experimenter cannot change and may not know, particularly when the data are re...

Modern deep learning compilers compile models lazily and cache artifacts across invocations. Retained compiler state can make a later invocation incorrect even when it is correct in isolation. An analysis of 26 publicly reported issues in PyTorch, JAX, and TensorFlow shows that detecting such bugs requires sequences th...

We demonstrate an application of deep learning to the problem of identifying whether two generating vectors correspond to topologically equivalent finite group actions on Riemann surfaces, showing how architectures developed for semantic understanding have use for pure mathematical problems. In doing so we discuss how...
The convergence of communication and computation, empowered by artificial intelligence (AI) enhanced capabilities, emerges as a key enabler for realizing the promising functionalities of the sixth-generation of communication systems (6G). To this end, this paper investigates an AI-native, robust network, where multiple...

Tabular foundation models based on prior-data fitted networks (PFNs) predict on a new data set in a single forward pass, but they cannot report which inputs their predictions depend on. We propose SelectPFN, a PFN that performs Bayesian variable selection and prediction jointly for sparse nonlinear regression. In one f...
Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have recently gained popularity for their ability to model functions using simple and lightweight networks. These methods have also proven effective in deformable image registration. In this work, we extend INRs for deformable image registration to the domain of temporal image reg...

Aggressive quantization of neural networks can expose activation functions as bottlenecks for efficient hardware acceleration. Implementing quantized activations as multi-threshold operations has been shown to be a promising optimization, allowing for efficient hardware implementation of few-bit activations. However, c...

Sky-image irradiance forecasting is dominated by a two-stage design: a video-prediction model forecasts future sky frames, and a separately trained regressor maps those frames to irradiance. We propose a single-stage alternative that co-denoises the future sky-image and clear-sky-index sequences in one diffusion proces...
It is proved that this single-qubit re-uploading (serial) circuit represents every function that a multi-qubit circuit with the same encoding budget with the same encoding budget can; it is found that this exchange of width for depth is not free in first-order training.

A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.
