Constant Swap Regret in General-Sum Games via Two-Scale Higher-Order Optimism

We give deterministic and uncoupled learning dynamics for finite multiplayer general-sum games under full-information feedback that achieve constant individual swap regret in self-play, independent of the horizon $T$. With $n$ players and at most $m$ actions each, every player's individual swap regret is $O(\sqrt n\,m\...

The Latent That Never Was: A Forensic Re-run of the CVAE Ablation in Action Chunking Transformer

Action Chunking Transformers (ACT) are widely used to learn robot manipulation from demonstrations. Their conditional variational autoencoder includes an encoder meant to capture differences between demonstrations during training. The original ACT paper reported that encoder removal dropped the mean success rate from 3...

Carry-Through Checksum: A Lightweight Fault-Detection for CNN Inference at the Edge

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are increasingly deployed in safety-critical edge applications, where soft errors can silently corrupt inference outputs and lead to unsafe decisions. Such applications typically rely on resource-constrained embedded GPUs, requiring fault detection and mitigation techniques that add...

Unified Heterogeneous Graph Neural Network solver for Power Flow, Optimal Power Flow and State Estimation

Power Flow (PF), Optimal Power Flow (OPF), and State Estimation (SE) are fundamental problems in power system analysis, but solving them is computationally expensive. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have been proposed as fast surrogates, yet existing solvers are trained for a single problem at a time, producing narrow mod...

Visual Cue Guided Video Planning for Generalizable Robot Navigation

Generative video models can serve as a promising backbone for robot navigation by predicting future observations as video plans. Recent approaches often condition video planning on short-horizon guidance and recover geometric waypoints through scene reconstruction, leaving longer-horizon planning and precise video-to-a...

Weave: Learning Whole-Body Dexterous Loco-Manipulation from Human-Object Interactions

Learning humanoid-object interaction requires coordinating whole-body balance, locomotion, and dexterous hand contact to control both robot and object motion. Human demonstrations provide examples of coordinated interaction, but transferring these behaviors to humanoid robots requires learning how to establish and main...

Can Knowledge Transfer Parameters Be Learned? LePoKet for Efficient Robotic Vision

Efficient perception is central to robotic systems operating under constrained computation, memory, and latency budgets. Knowledge transfer from larger pretrained models offers a practical route to stronger compact perception networks, but existing approaches commonly rely on fixed distillation objectives or manually d...

AURA: Agentic Diagnosis and Refinement for Production Recommender Systems at Scale

How and why does a recommender system fail the users it serves? Oftentimes, practitioners are left to improve their algorithms based on a combination of feedback from stakeholder teams, domain expertise, and insights from data analyses. Yet the nuances of how and where recommendations perform well or poorly for end use...

From Manual Construction to AI-Driven Scenario Emergence: Rethinking Catastrophe Risk Modeling

Traditional catastrophe (CAT) risk models rely on costly manual construction to generate extreme weather scenarios, an approach largely unchanged since the 1990s. As climate extremes intensify, this creates mounting challenges to the entire risk transfer chain. This study proposes the TAISE framework, which repurposes...

Certified Inference and Training for Deep Equilibrium Networks: A Continuation Framework with Polynomial Complexity Guarantees

We develop a certified continuation framework for equilibrium computation and for training deep equilibrium networks (DEQs), with training formulated as interpolation to accuracy $2^{-b}$. For inference, compact input homotopy selects a unique branch from a supplied start root, and a rounded Newton tracker follows it u...

A multimodal large language model for evidence-based autism spectrum disorder screening

The clinical management of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) faces a bottleneck in early screening, mainly because trained specialists are scarce and conventional assessment tools are subjective. Here, we introduce ASDchat, a multimodal large language model designed for evidence-based ASD screening, which takes video, aud...

Forecasting space weather risks on power grids

Extreme space-weather events can damage power systems on Earth and degrade GPS accuracy and satellite operations. A new machine learning system can predict where damage is likely to occur 30-60 minutes before a storm arrives. The post Forecasting space weather risks on power grids appeared first on Microsoft Research.
