Researchers from MIT and the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab developed a technique to estimate the reliability of foundation models before they are deployed to a specific task. They do this by considering a set of foundation models that are slightly different from one another. Then they use their algorithm to assess the consistency of the representations each model learns about the same test data point. If the representations are consistent, it means the model is reliable.

Research Highlights: MIT Develops First Generative Model for Anomaly Detection that Combines both Reconstruction-based and Prediction-based Models
February 20, 2023 by
Kalyan Veeramachaneni and his team at the MIT Data-to-AI (DAI) Lab have developed the first generative model, the AutoEncoder with Regression (AER) for time series anomaly detection, that combines both reconstruction-based and prediction-based models. They’ve been building it for three years—AER has been learning and extracting intelligence for signals and has reached maturity to outperform the market’s leading models significantly.

AI For the Future of Work.
November 4, 2022 by
AI has been a buzzword and businesses are all at different stages of implementing it. But is it actually solving anything? MIT Sloan and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) answer that question in a new report Achieving Individual – and Organization- Value with AI. Among respondents who report that their organization obtains moderate, significant, or extensive value from AI, the vast majority (85%) claim that they personally obtain value from AI.

How to Produce Cleaner Data for Robust Pricing
June 19, 2020 by
In this contributed article by MIT Sloan School of Management Prof. Negin Golrezaei, found that there are ways to limit price manipulation. The key is the pricing algorithm. Instead of using bids to directly set prices, a prominent group of researchers designed an algorithm that uses censored bids– in this case a binary signal – to indicate whether the buyer wins in the prior auction or not.
Ask a TA: Everything You Need to Know About MIT xPRO’s Online Data Science Course
January 17, 2019 by
Eric Bradford, a Teaching Assistant for MIT xPRO’s Online Data Science Course, Data Science and Big Data Analytics: Making Data-Driven Decisions, gives his insights into the unique seven-week course. The seven-week course explores the theory and practice behind recommendation engines, regressions, network and graphical modeling, anomaly detection, hypothesis testing, machine learning, and big data analytics. The next online data science course begins Feb. 4, and is currently enrolling.
Can Online Professional Development Courses Teach Data-Driven Decision Making?
December 13, 2018 by
MIT xPRO’s Data Science program is segmented into six modules, each lead by a faculty member with expertise, research and teaching experience in that area. After just seven weeks, learners earn an MIT Professional Certificate in Data Science. This guest post from MIT focuses on whether online professional development courses, like its xPRO Data Science program, are successful in teaching data-driven decision making.
