The task of translating natural language queries (text-to-SQL) into SQL has been historically challenging due to the complexity of understanding user questions, database schemas, and SQL production. Recent innovations have seen the integration of Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) into text-to-SQL systems, which have displayed much promise. However, they can generate incorrect SQL due to growing…
Despite their advancement in many language processing tasks, large language models (LLMs) still have significant issues when it comes to complex mathematical reasoning. Current methodologies have difficulty decomposing tasks into manageable sections and often lack useful feedback from tools that might supplement a comprehensive analysis. While existing methods perform well on simpler problems, they generally…
The use of advanced AI models for code generation continues to gain momentum in the developer community. However, the execution of AI-generated codes presents a major challenge due to security issues and the need for considerable setup. The ideal tool for executing such codes would be able to support numerous programming languages and frameworks without…
Microsoft researchers have recently introduced a new technique for evaluating conversational AI assistants: RUBICON. This technique was specifically designed to assess domain-specific Human-AI conversations by generating and assessing candidate rubrics. Tested on 100 conversations between developers and a chat-based assistant specifically designed for C# debugging, RUBICON outperformed all other alternative rubric sets, demonstrating its high…
Document Understanding (DU) involves the automatic interpretation and processing of various forms of data including text, tables, charts, and images found in documents. It has a critical role in extracting and using the extensive amounts of information produced annually within the vast multitude of documents. However, a significant challenge lies in understanding long-context documents spanning…
Large Language Models (LLMs) and multi-modal counterparts (MLLMs), crucial in advancing artificial general intelligence (AGI), face issues while dealing with visual mathematical problems, especially where geometric figures and spatial relationships are involved. While advances have been made through techniques for vision-language integration and text-based mathematical problem-solving, progress in the multi-modal mathematical domain has been limited.

Snowflake has announced the release of its latest text embedding model, snowflake-arctic-embed-m-v1.5, which enhances embedding vector compressibility and retains substantial quality even when compressed to as little as 128 bytes per vector. This breakthrough is achieved by employing Matryoshka Representation Learning (MRL) and uniform scalar quantization methods. The applicability is ideal for tasks requiring effective…
Researchers from the University of Maryland, Tsinghua University, University of California, Shanghai Qi Zhi Institute, and Shanghai AI Lab have developed a novel methodology named Make-An-Agent for generating policies using conditional diffusion models. This method looks to improve upon traditional policy learning that uses sampled trajectories from a replay buffer or behavior demonstrations to learn…
Deepset and Mixedbread have taken an innovative leap by introducing a revolutionary open-source German/English embedding model called deepset-mxbai-embed-de-large-v1. The tool aims to correct the imbalance in the AI landscape, where English-speaking markets dominate. Based on the intfloat/multilingual-e5-large model, it is fine-tuned using over 30 million pairs of German data to enhance natural language processing (NLP)…
Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT are transforming educational practices by providing new ways of learning and teaching. These advanced models generate text similar to humans, reshaping the interaction between educators, students, and information. However, despite enhancing learning efficiency and creativity, LLMs bring up ethical issues related to trust and an overdependence on technology.
