Johns Hopkins researchers show how different “odds” can teach AI models to admit when they’re not confident enough in an answer. By Jaimie Patterson In high-stakes situations like health care—or weeknight Jeopardy!—it can be safer to say “I don’t know” than to answer incorrectly. Doctors, game show contestants, and standardized test-takers understand this, but most artificial […]
By Dino Lencioni Two papers co-authored by Sanjeev Khudanpur, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering (ECE) and a member of the Center for Language and Speech Processing (CLSP), were recognized by IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP) as among the most impactful in the conference’s 50-year history. Originally published in 2015 and 2018, the […]
