We developed an experimental framework using Big Five personality surveys and uncovered a previously undetected social desirability bias in a wide range of LLMs. By systematically varying the number of questions LLMs were exposed to, we demonstrate their…

We are excited to announce that Azure Private Link is now Generally Available (GA) for Databricks serverless and Mosaic AI Model Serving workloads! Now you can enable private connectivity from Databricks SQL, Jobs, Notebooks, Delta Live Tables, and Mosaic AI Model Serving CPU/GPU endpoints to your Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) and managed Azure resources. Today we are also introducing new support for 60+ Azure 1st party resources, such as Azure OpenAI and Azure SQL, which expands on our announcement earlier this year of private link support for DBSQL warehouses to Azure Storage. Azure Private Link provides a direct, secure…

arXiv:2411.14612v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hyperdimensional computing (HDC) enables efficient data encoding and processing in high-dimensional space, benefiting machine learning and data analysis. However, underutilization of these spaces can lead to overfitting and reduced model reliability, especially in data-limited systems a critical issue in sectors like healthcare that demand robustness and consistent performance. We introduce BoostHD, an approach that applies boosting algorithms to partition the hyperdimensional space into subspaces, creating an ensemble of weak learners. By integrating boosting with HDC, BoostHD enhances performance and reliability beyond existing HDC methods. Our analysis highlights the importance of efficient utilization of hyperdimensional spaces…

[Submitted on 19 Nov 2024 (v1), last revised 22 Nov 2024 (this version, v2)] View a PDF of the paper titled From Text to Pose to Image: Improving Diffusion Model Control and Quality, by Cl'ement Bonnet and 5 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:In the last two years, text-to-image diffusion models have become extremely popular. As their quality and usage increase, a major concern has been the need for better output control. In addition to prompt engineering, one effective method to improve the controllability of diffusion models has been to condition them on additional modalities such as image style,…
