🚀 Excited to share a new interp+agents paper: 🐭🐱 MICE for CATs: Model-Internal Confidence Estimation for Calibrating Agents with Tools appearing at #NAACL2025 This was work done Microsoft last summer with Jason Eisner Justin Svegliato Benjamin Van Durme Yu Su @[email protected] 1/🧵

Can self-supervised models 🤖 understand allophony 🗣? Excited to share my new #NAACL2025 paper: Leveraging Allophony in Self-Supervised Speech Models for Atypical Pronunciation Assessment arxiv.org/abs/2502.07029 (1/n)

🔑 So what now? When picking metrics, don’t rely on global scores alone. 🎯 Identify the evaluation context 🔍 Measure local accuracy ✅ Choose metrics that are stable and/or perform well in your context ♻️ Reevaluate as models and tasks evolve 📄 aclanthology.org/2025.findings-… (🧵9/9)

Excited to announce our #NAACL2025 Oral paper! 🎉✨ We carried out the largest systematic study so far to map the links between upstream choices, intrinsic bias, and downstream zero-shot performance across 131 CLIP Vision-language encoders, 26 datasets, and 55 architectures!

RL boosts LLM reasoning—but why stop at math & code? 🤔 Meet Nemotron-CrossThink—a method to scale RL-based self-learning across law, physics, social science & more. 🔥Resulting in a model that reasons broadly, adapts dynamically, & uses 28% fewer tokens for correct answers!

Congratulations and welcome!

What happens if you scale Whisper to billions of parameters? Our #ICML2025 paper develops scaling laws for ASR/ST models, training models with up to 18B params and 360K hours of data, and 100+ languages Joint work b/w Language Technologies Institute | @CarnegieMellon and NVIDIA arxiv.org/abs/2502.10373

Congratulations to all of the MIIS, MSAII, MCDS and MLT graduates receiving their diplomas today! 🎓🎉 #tartanproud

“Go forth and innovate. Disrupt wisely. And carry your LTI pedigree with pride.” Read LTI Director Mona Diab’s message to our 2025 graduating class: lti.cmu.edu/news-and-event…

Notice our new look? We're thrilled to unveil our new logo – representing our vision, values, and the future ahead. Stay tuned for more!

We had a blast at our Commencement Reception Friday night. Congrats again to all of our 2025 grads – go out and make us (even more) proud!

Some people have said that OpenAI achieved state of the art results on the SWE-Bench Verified leaderboard with their codex model, but that's actually not quite correct, no matter how you measure it. A quick 🧵

We are organizing Generative AI for Biology workshop at #ICML2025. Welcome to submit any relevant work on AI for biomolecule, AI model for bio systems, AI and experiments, Agent for bio discovery, new datasets and tools, etc. The deadline is May 25th. genbio-workshop.github.io/2025/

Our MSAII and MCDS programs were both recently ranked among the nations best by TechGuide, with the MSAII program being named the number one program among MS programs in AI. Congrats to all the faculty, students and staff that make us who we are! lti.cmu.edu/news-and-event…

We're just saying... #TartanProud
