Results show that recurrent models can provide competitive classification performance while also revealing the phenological periods and spectral regions that are most relevant for distinguishing closely related forest compositions, and provide additional insight into the spectral-temporal mechanisms underlying tree-spe...
Equivariant structure-prediction pipelines alternate coordinate updates with the construction of a k-nearest-neighbour (kNN) graph whose membership is a discrete, piecewise-constant function of the coordinates. Rebuilding that graph at every block boundary (PB) is the expensive part of an epoch, whereas reusing one fro...
Financial disclosures express the underlying relationships of double-entry accounting through unstructured text. While financial LLM benchmarks predominantly emphasize question answering and classification, schema-guided evidence discovery remains relatively under-explored. We investigate whether open-weight LLMs can e...

When writing code, the same computation can be expressed in different programming languages and through different implementation strategies. We show that the activations of LLMs capture this shared structure in reusable and composable abstract representations when they generate code. These representations emerge in the...

Large language models impose substantial memory demands and arithmetic costs during inference. Dense-to-mixture-of-experts (MoE) conversion is a model optimization technique that aims to reduce these arithmetic costs. Dense-to-MoE conversion partitions pretrained feed-forward network (FFN) neurons into experts and sele...

The Continuous Thought Machine (CTM) is a recurrent network that attends to inputs and makes predictions based on the synchronization between its neurons. On tasks spanning many domains, it displays emergent thought processes that have not been explained. We report a number of findings about how the CTM classifies imag...
Large language models are increasingly deployed as teams of agents that hold different private information about a shared task. How should such agents concisely communicate in a way that promotes aggregation of decision-relevant information? Communicating only proposed actions can discard decision-relevant uncertainty:...

Wildfire decisions are made in hours, yet most learned spread models predict daily on targets including burned area. We propose FireGraphNet which formulates 12-hour growth as node classification on directed H3 graphs, with candidates ahead of the front and wind alignment, terrain, fuel continuity and barriers on edges...

Scientific imaging data involving medical (e.g., 3D radiographic, microscopic images) and astronomical sensors pose different challenges from natural images. One key challenge is that these datasets are often orders of magnitude larger than natural images. Efficient training and inference on such data is challenging du...

Before deploying clinical prediction models, their reliability must be assessed to ensure safe use. Errors may arise from distribution shifts between training and deployment or from heterogeneous performance where the model systematically underperforms for certain patient subgroups. Yet most post-hoc diagnostic methods...

On-policy distillation (OPD) is increasingly studied as a cheaper alternative to reinforcement learning, yet it remains a form of knowledge distillation (KD) that relies on teacher supervision. We revisit OPD from the KD perspective by asking where the teacher's advantage lies along student-generated trajectories. Cont...

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.
