aisk hynix raises $26.5b in record us ipo
sk hynix raised $26.5 billion in the largest us debut by a foreign company, driven by ai chip demand.
aifusing normalization into gemm and attention kernels
novel kernel fusion techniques hide up to 90% of normalization latency by integrating layer norm and rms norm with matrix multiplications and attention.
ailocal video summarization with smolvlm2-2.2b
a pipeline that runs on consumer gpus to summarize videos by extracting frames and analyzing them with a small vision-language model.
aiprofiling attention in pytorch
a walkthrough of profiling different attention implementations in pytorch, from naive to fused kernels, using torch.profiler to spot performance differences.
aidrift lipschitz budget controls diffusion policy expressivity
a new study shows that the drift lipschitz constant k determines how well diffusion policies approximate optimal actions and how they behave statistically with finite data.
aiexplaining temporal graph networks via memory backtracking
a new method explains temporal graph network predictions by tracing how past events shape node memory vectors through backtracking and topological attribution.
aihow ai agents exploit trust in public communication
a new framework explains how humans and large language models can strategically undermine trust in scaffolded public assertions, going beyond echo chambers and misinformation.
aiscore matching simplifies bayesian experimental design
a new method separates score matching from policy training to make adaptive experiment design cheaper and more scalable.
aiwho gets missed in chest x-ray ai decisions
study shows how threshold choices in long-tailed chest x-ray models can miss rare-positive patients, especially in subgroups, and how tail-aware methods reduce underdiagnosis.
aihow llms handle medical reasoning
a survey maps clinical reasoning levels to ai methods and tests 18 models on a new benchmark.
aiprediction-powered active testing cuts labeling costs
a new method uses model predictions to reduce variance in risk estimation while keeping estimates unbiased, and it adaptively selects which test points to label.
