Recent work has explored visual reasoning through image generation, where models solve visual-reasoning problems by directly generating solution images. Intuitively, iterative samplers such as flow matching are well suited to this task, since each sampling step may resemble one reasoning step. However, in this work, fr...

We propose DAGFormer, a Transformer language model whose cross-layer connections are planned by a jointly trained topology predictor. Beyond the residual connections in a standard Transformer, DAGFormer adds direct connections from earlier layers to later ones, and the predictor controls the strength of every connectio...
Rising privacy concerns around large language models have accelerated research in private Transformer inference (PTI). Synthesizing the empirical claims in this line of research, however, is hindered by multi-dimensional cryptographic progress and inconsistent evaluation contracts. In this work, we systematize the fiel...
The lasting gains in AI have come from methods that absorb more computation, and language models already scale computation within a call. Useful work, though, happens across calls: over hours or days, through tools and external systems, among many agents and the humans they work for, and increasingly through code the a...

We consider the problem of estimating the background intensity of a Hawkes process when the triggering mechanism is known, treating the background as an unknown finite positive measure with a regular density. We propose a likelihood-based variational approach based on the Wasserstein-Fisher-Rao geometry. In this settin...
As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to generate text, their misuse has become a growing societal problem, with implications for academic misconduct, model distillation, and cyberattacks. For these reasons, Model Authorship Attribution (MAA), which identifies the source model of a given text, is import...

DualGCN is proposed, an innovative Dual-Branch Graph Knowledge Distillation Framework that significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in strict cold-start scenarios while comprehensively preserving recommendation accuracy for highly active items.
Differential Privacy (DP) provides a rigorous framework for quantifying privacy guarantees. While most methods achieve DP by injecting calibrated random noise, the intrinsic randomness of certain procedures such as sampling can yield DP guarantees ``for free''. In this work, we develop a unified R\'enyi divergence fram...
Quantifying the diversity of a set of objects is a fundamental problem in machine learning and statistics. Mironov and Prokhorenkova (2025) recently showed that three axioms-monotonicity, uniqueness, and continuity-are crucial for a reliable diversity measure and that none of the standard metrics in the literature sati...

The same recipe trained on a multi-domain corpus improves the frozen backbone on twelve evaluation benchmarks spanning mathematics, science, and commonsense, without task-specific adaptation.

This work presents an automated framework that classifies suspected overdoses from death investigation reports, while producing supporting explanations guided by expert knowledge, and shows that a pipeline model with explanations grounded in the input death investigation reports outperforms the other settings.

In medical annotation and crowdsourcing, multiple annotators assign labels to each example, but these labels may be incorrect. Treating such noisy labels as ground truth can bias calibration evaluation. To address this problem, we propose methods for evaluating and recalibrating a fixed binary predictor under the under...
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.
