New AI systems tackle complex sampling and human-scene interaction

Researchers have developed two new AI systems for complex tasks. One, MASEM, addresses the challenge of sampling from disconnected probability distributions, improving efficiency in areas like Bayesian optimization and robotics by an order of magnitude. The other, InteractAgent, is an agentic multimodal LLM designed for long-horizon human-scene interaction, capable of planning, executing, and refining actions in a closed loop to improve task success and reduce errors. AI

IMPACT These advancements offer new tools for complex AI applications in optimization, robotics, and human-scene interaction.
