We introduce PulseSearch, a GenAI-based approach for generating query suggestions in a music search platform. Designed to anticipate users’ intent during a search session, PulseSearch combines long- and short-term user signals by conditioning generation on both recent user queries and pre-generated listener profiles. To further enhance contextual relevance, it generates suggestions tailored to different times of the day. We conduct both online and offline evaluations, showing that PulseSearch consistently improves suggestion quality over dense retrieval baselines across dimensions such as personalization, diversity, and freshness. A demo of our results is available at the provided URL.

We consider the distributed training of large scale neural networks that serve as PDE (partial differential equation) solvers producing full field outputs. We specifically consider neural solvers for the generalized 3D Poisson equation over megavoxel domains. A scalable framework is presented that integrates two distinct advances. First, we accelerate training a large model via a method analogous to the multigrid technique used in numerical linear algebra. Here, the network is trained using a hierarchy of increasing resolution inputs in sequence, analogous to the `V', `W', `F' and `Half-V' cycles used in multigrid approaches. In conjunction with the multi-grid approach, we implement a distributed deep learning framework which significantly reduces the time to solve. We show scalability of this approach on both GPU (Azure VMs on Cloud) and CPU clusters (PSC Bridges2). This approach is deployed to train a generalized 3D Poisson solver that scales well to predict output full field solutions up to the resolution of 512 X 512 X 512 for a high dimensional family of inputs. This strategy opens up the possibility of fast and scalable training of neural PDE solvers on heterogeneous clusters.

We propose a model-based metric to estimate the factual accuracy of generated text that is complementary to typical scoring schemes like ROUGE (Recall-Oriented Understudy for Gisting Evaluation) and BLEU (Bilingual Evaluation Understudy). We introduce and release a new large-scale dataset based on Wikipedia and Wikidata to train relation classifiers and end-to-end fact extraction models. The end-to-end models are shown to be able to extract complete sets of facts from datasets with full pages of text. We then analyse multiple models that estimate factual accuracy on a Wikipedia text summarization task, and show their efficacy compared to ROUGE and other model-free variants by conducting a human evaluation study.
