How can we build human values into AI?

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more powerful and more deeply integrated into our lives, the questions of how it is used and deployed are all the more important. What values guide AI? Whose values are they? And how are they selected?

Apple Workshop on Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning 2024

At Apple, we believe privacy is a fundamental human right. It’s also one of our core values, influencing both our research and the design of Apple’s products and services. Understanding how people use their devices often helps in improving the user experience. However, accessing the data that provides such insights…

Theory, Analysis, and Best Practices for Sigmoid Self-Attention

*Primary Contributors Attention is a key part of the transformer architecture. It is a sequence-to-sequence mapping that transforms each sequence element into a weighted sum of values. The weights are typically obtained as the softmax of dot products between keys and queries. Recent work has explored alternatives to softmax attention…

Semi-Supervised and Long-Tailed Object Detection with CascadeMatch

This paper focuses on long-tailed object detection in the semi-supervised learning setting, which poses realistic challenges, but has rarely been studied in the literature. We propose a novel pseudo-labeling-based detector called CascadeMatch. Our detector features a cascade network architecture, which has multi-stage detection heads with progressive confidence thresholds. To avoid…
