Compound Memory Models
The next generation of computer processors are going to be “heterogeneous”: this means they will package completely different processors in one system. For example, a CPU from Intel, several GPUs from NVIDIA, a few…

Robotic planning with large language models based on visual cues
Today, robotic systems often require precise descriptions of the environment in which they are expected to operate. In other cases, they need time to extensively explore the environment before they are able to…

PlaNet-Pick: Effective Cloth Flattening Based on Latent Dynamic Planning
Why do Recurrent State Space Models such as PlaNet fail at cloth manipulation tasks? Recent work has attributed this to the blurry reconstruction of the observation, which makes it difficult to plan directly in the…
Comparing Constraint Programming Pipelines
Constraint programming is an important field in computer science for solving constraint problems; problems with a set of rules like Sudoku not allowing the same number in a row or column. These constraint problems…
Automatically Detecting Shared Library Functions for Native Acceleration in Emulation
Emulation allows programs to be run on machines of different architectures, and is more widespread than ever since Apple released the ‘Rosetta’ emulation tool as they transitioned to M1 Macbooks. However, the…
