Microsoft Open-Sources ONNX Acceleration for BERT AI Model

#artificialintelligence

With the optimizations, the model's inference latency on the SQUAD benchmark sped up 17x. Senior program manager Emma Ning gave an overview of the results in a blog post. In collaboration with engineers from Bing, the Azure researchers developed a condensed BERT model for understanding web-search queries. To improve the model's response time, the team re-implemented the model in C . Microsoft is now open-sourcing those optimizations by contributing them to ONNX Runtime, an open-source library for accelerating neural-network inference operations.
