Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative training of complex models across large-scale networks of edge devices while keeping data localized. However, data heterogeneity and high communication overhead remain fundamental bottlenecks. Recently, the spectral optimizer Muon has demonstrated remarkable advantages over...

Concept-based models (CMs) learn human-interpretable intermediate representations that enable users to understand the model's reasoning and steer its predictions through test-time concept interventions. However, in realistic settings, their performance can be limited by concept incompleteness, where the training concep...

The recurrent neural network transducer (RNN-T) remains a practical choice for streaming speech recognition, but training requires large intermediate tensors. We present Flash RNN-T, a joint and loss implementation combining specialized kernels with optional tiled recomputation over the full alignment space and vocabul...
Information-theoretic measures, such as Mutual Information (MI), play a crucial role in understanding non-linear relationships between random variables and are widely used across scientific disciplines. Yet, their use on real-world discrete data remains challenging. Existing methods typically rely on embedding discrete...

In the classical principal-agent setting, the principal delegates some task to the agent, who receives a payment conditioned on the outcome of the task, which in turn benefits the principal. To align their objectives, the principal designs a contract that incentivizes the agent to take actions beneficial to the princip...

A Wasserstein GAN equipped with a progressive Lipschitz penalty and an adaptive kernel with promising performance of the WGAN-CLP with an adaptive kernel framework in forecasting sequence alterations across the voltage and energy time-series datasets.
The Recursive Time-Series Model is introduced, which combines a learned convolutional temporal tokenizer, single-state weight-tied refinement, and a pooled classification readout, and the resulting classifier combines competitive accuracy with a shared refinement module whose parameter count is independent of computati...

Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) has become the standard method for parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large pretrained models, yet theoretical explanations for why low-rank updates suffice remain incomplete. Most existing analyses rely on the Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) regime, which linearizes the network around the pretra...

Modern deep learning systems increasingly rely on high-dimensional vector operations, in which large input and parameter vectors are repeatedly stored, transferred, and processed. Although substantial research has focused on reducing neural-network model size through pruning, quantization, knowledge distillation, and e...
Pretrained models are often reused across downstream tasks, motivating the question of whether this transfer learning procedure can provide a substantial performance improvement, namely, in terms of the scaling law. We address this question in the prototypical setting of high-dimensional regression, where (i) a pretrai...

The High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) acquires imagery of Mars at 25--30 cm/pixel, supporting studies of martian geology, climate history, and landing-site characterization. Its 14-detector focal plane assembly includes several overlapping detectors that e...

Real-time inference on small devices needs low activation memory without extra latency, which makes operator order the most valuable memory lever: it is free in time. We show that the usual way of deploying a better order, handing it back to the compiler and regenerating code, is unreliable. In PyTorch Inductor the reg...

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.
