Arrested retinal development can cause childhood visual impairment, but grading optical coherence tomography scans is difficult to standardise across devices and centres. We developed and evaluated an unsupervised domain adaptation model to classify normal and abnormal retinal development across different OCT systems....

Robust covariance estimation under entry-wise contamination and missing data is challenging in various signal processing applications. Under the Student-$t$ model, observation-level reweighting induces a uniform attenuation across samples, which can lead to cumulative information loss even when most coordinates remain...

Adaptive assessment systems personalize learning by estimating learner proficiency and recommending suitable questions. However, many existing approaches rely on fixed difficulty labels, static rating updates, or black-box prediction models that provide limited control over rating stability, interpretability, and time-...
Corporate financial disclosures often unfold over time, with announcements, prepared remarks, and discussion spanning multiple high-frequency return intervals. Financial NLP benchmarks can therefore suffer from a within-event timing mismatch when the prediction target begins before the textual or audio input used by a...

Flow matching has emerged as a powerful generative family for simulation-based inference (SBI). However, sampling and density evaluation require numerical integration at inference time. This makes posterior sampling in neural posterior estimation costly. More importantly, it can make repeated likelihood evaluation proh...

Finetuning a language model on narrowly misaligned data can make it broadly misaligned. Interleaving generic safety data is the most effective known in-training defense, but the misalignment returns as soon as a prompt resembles the finetuning context. We argue that this conditional misalignment is a spurious correlati...
Preparing quantum states in bosonic qudits with SNAP--Displacement sequences requires both optimizing the gate parameters and deciding which Fock levels should be controlled by each SNAP gate. A fully parameterized ansatz assigns an independent phase to every Fock level in every gate, leading to a number of phases that...

We study Text-and-Image-to-Image (TI2I) flow matching methods for controllable image editing. In a broader generative modeling context, Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG) is established as a key component responsible for high quality outputs. However, we argue that its role in TI2I modeling is poorly understood. Specifical...

A two-term cost model means that hits on prompts shorter than about 17k tokens cannot beat recompute at any bandwidth, and shard the MLA KV store across PCP ranks raises prefill throughput by 14%, and by 34% together with an upstream kernel fix.
Transcribing expressive piano performances into scores requires interpreting individual note timings within an underlying metrical structure. However, score attributes are associated with notes, whereas beats may occur without coincident note onsets. We introduce DuET, a Dual-Encoder Transformer that jointly learns not...
Device-cloud speculative decoding reduces server computation, but growing a deep draft tree with a small language model (SLM) requires repeated passes on a mobile neural processing unit (NPU). We present HyCo, which assigns depth to the server model's native multi-token prediction (MTP) head, executed on the device, an...

This work introduces a policy-aligned predictive verifier (PAV) that anticipates the consequences of candidate action prefixes and evaluates their compatibility with successful continuation before execution, and combines trajectory-level survival supervision with a localization prior that preserves useful behavior with...

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.
