The introduction of large language models (LLMs) such as Llama, PaLM, and GPT-4 has transformed the world of natural language processing (NLP), elevating the capabilities for text generation and comprehension. However, a key issue with these models is their tendency to produce hallucinations - generating content that is factually incorrect or inconsistent with the input…
Large Language Models (LLMs) require an appropriate inference backend to function correctly, influencing user experience and operational costs. A recent study conducted by the BentoML Engineering Team has benchmarked various backends to better understand their performance when serving LLMs. The study focused primarily on vLLM, LMDeploy, MLC-LLM, TensorRT-LLM, and Hugging Face TGI. The experiment carried…
Deep learning methods exhibit excellent performance in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases from ECGs. Nevertheless, their "black-box" nature contributes to their limited integrations into clinical scenarios because a lack of interpretability hinders their broader adoption. To overcome this limitation, researchers from the Institute of Biomedical Engineering, TU Dresden, developed xECGArch, a deep learning architecture designed specifically for…
The open-source project Perplexica is a breakthrough in the realm of search engines. While many strong platforms have fallen short when it comes to providing relevant and comprehensive search results, Perplexica addresses these shortcomings with its unique artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Most conventional search engines bank heavily on keywords, causing discomfort when users make more…
In the modern digital world, search engines are the gateways to accessing relevant information. Traditional search engines deploy keyword-based algorithms, searching indexed web pages for matches. Although effective for uncomplicated search queries, these systems lack the capacity to comprehend complex or context-dependent inquiries. As a remedy, some AI-powered search engines have incorporated advanced language models…
