The accuracy of detecting protein crystals for fluorescence microscopy images is very critical for high throughput and automated systems. Although the trace fluorescent labeling method could highlight protein crystals, reflection and emission from the fluorescence dye is not always due to crystal regions. Therefore, th...

Joint-embedding predictive architectures (JEPAs) learn world models directly in latent space, but unconstrained autoregressive predictors may contract the latent distribution over long rollouts. We introduce Symplectic Hamiltonian JEPA (LeHami), which replaces the standard predictor with an action-conditioned Hamiltoni...
We introduce Sequent-Prover, a family of verifier-using language-model agents, and the post-training framework that produces them. Agents reason in an executable SMT-LIB scratchpad: they write complete SMT-LIB programs, query Z3 across turns, inspect solver feedback, repair formalizations, and terminate with an explici...

Self-evolving mechanisms let vision-language model (VLM) agents continually adapt through evolving memory, but they also allow malicious behavior to emerge only after deployment. We introduce a new attack surface, the self-evolving backdoor, whose payload stays dormant in the initial agent and is progressively activate...

This paper makes the following key observations: Shallow exits are consistently more robust to jailbreak attacks than deeper ones; Exit depth affects how easily the adversarial suffix can be optimized, with deeper exits reaching lower attack loss; and adversarial suffixes affect utility uniformly across exit depths.
This work proposes a learning algorithm that uses Kullback--Leibler lower confidence bounds on the unknown reliability parameters to guide deferral decisions, and establishes matching lower bounds, showing that these rates are optimal up to logarithmic factors.

Real-Time Image Enhanced CNN (RIECNN) for Traffic Sign Recognition is a real-time, novel approach that tackles multiple, diverse traffic sign datasets, and out-performs the state-of-the-art architectures in terms of recognition rate and execution time.

Foundation models need to support diverse inference budgets, yet training a separate model for each budget duplicates pretraining effort. Elastic models train several nested sub-networks inside one weight-shared supernet, but existing recipes face three obstacles: variable per-step workloads that hinder distributed sca...
AI coding agents operate in iterative loops: they modify code, run tools, inspect the results, and decide what to do next. We call the design of this process loop engineering, which includes context management, model selection, compaction, and termination. Existing efficiency work mainly compresses tool observations or...
Industrial anomaly detection benchmarks have advanced rapidly, yet they remain largely static and therefore underrepresent deployment settings in which inspection systems must be extended from one industrial component to another over time. In our setting, continual industrial anomaly detection is framed as a task-incre...

Tabular foundation models adapt to new datasets through in-context learning (ICL), and, like most transformers, they tie computational depth to the number of independently parameterized layers. We ask whether the ICL stage of such a model needs a distinct set of parameters for every layer, or only depth. We introduce T...
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.
