Deep learning researchers have long been grappling with the challenge of designing a unifying framework for neural network architectures. Existing models are typically defined by a set of constraints or a series of operations they must execute. While both these approaches are beneficial, what's been lacking is a unified system that seamlessly integrates these two…
Deep learning architectures require substantial resources due to their vast design space, lengthy prototyping periods, and high computational costs related to large-scale model training and evaluation. Traditionally, improvements in architecture have come from heuristic and individual experience-driven development processes, as opposed to systematic procedures. This is further complicated by the combinatorial explosion of possible designs…
Artificial intelligence and deep learning models, despite their popularity and capacity, often struggle with generalization, particularly when they encounter data that differs from what they were trained on. This issue arises when the distribution of training and testing data varies, resulting in reduced model performance.
The concept of domain generalization has been introduced to combat…
HuggingFace researchers have developed a new tool called Quanto to streamline the deployment of deep learning models on devices with limited resources, such as mobile phones and embedded systems.
