Do you really need a Feature Store?

#artificialintelligence

"Feature store" has been around for a few years. There are both open-source solutions (such as Feast and Hopsworks), and commercial offerings (such as Tecton, Hopsworks, Databricks Feature Store) for "feature store". There have been a lot of articles and blogs published around what "feature store" is, and why "feature store" is valuable. Some organizations have also already adopted "feature store" to be part of their ML applications. However, it is worthwhile to point out that "feature store" is another component added to your overall ML infrastructure, which requires extra investment and effort to both build and operate. Therefore it is necessary to truly understand and discuss "is Feature Store really necessary for every organization?".


Unleashing ML Innovation at Spotify with Ray - Spotify Engineering : Spotify Engineering

#artificialintelligence

As the field of machine learning (ML) continues to evolve and its impact on society and various aspects of our lives grows, it is becoming increasingly important for practitioners and innovators to consider a broader range of perspectives when building ML models and applications. This desire is driving the need for a more flexible and scalable ML infrastructure. At Spotify, we strongly believe in a diverse and collaborative approach to building ML applications. Gone are the days when ML was the domain of only a small group of researchers and engineers. We want to democratize our ML efforts such that contributors of all backgrounds, including engineers, data scientists, and researchers, can leverage their unique perspectives, skills, and expertise to further ML at Spotify.

Mesopotamia to Machine Learning

#artificialintelligence

I've been meaning to post for quite some time about a subject that has become very central to me and my work. Maths has been a constant in my life since early childhood. Coming from a family where maths was highly valued it was natural for me to gravitate towards mathematics at university. Recently, I have been reading about the history of mathematics. I was surprised to discover that the first recorded zero appeared in Mesopotamia around 3 B.C. and that the first use of negative numbers appeared in China around 200 B.C.

Make Machine Learning Work for Your Company: A Primer

#artificialintelligence

Over the last 50 years, machine learning (ML) has evolved through a series of hype cycles -- periods of public fervor as well as funding droughts known as "AI winters" -- to reach mainstream applicability and acceptance. With recent computing advances, we now see machine learning being widely used for things like search and feed ranking, spam filtering, and warnings about suspicious credit card activity. A specific form of ML called Deep Learning has fueled the recent growth in Natural Language Processing (NLP), autonomous driving, image and object recognition, and virtual personal assistants. Now, machine learning has evolved to the point where it won't just be integrated into new products but will also transform how products are built. Already today, ML offers enough benefits for product development that most companies should consider incorporating it into their processes. But when does it make sense to invest in machine learning capabilities and how do you actually build a machine learning team?


Do Computer Vision companies use OpenCV as their main tool ?

#artificialintelligence

I've worked at two different startups and JPL, so this may not be a fair analysis as in these cases quick iteration and deployment is more important than micro-optimization. For basic stuff like reading images, morphology, color space conversions, etc, you really can't go wrong with OpenCV and trying to improve performance in any of these realms is almost certainly company money wasted. OpenCV's complete algorithm implementations are also typically good enough for classical algorithms, although I've never used and couldn't recommend any of their DNN modules over PyTorch. From here, I'll either edit source or replace modules as necessary - for example, if matching is a bottleneck in computing homographies and exact matches are required, pulling a VP tree implementation could help. I've recently used their Line2D implementation, which benefited from inserting multithreading and SIMD.


IoT, Cloud and Machine Learning: The Building Blocks

#artificialintelligence

This article touches upon the building blocks that are necessary to enable machine learning in the data received from IoT, and how cloud infrastructure can help if we use the power of open source tools effectively. The protocol usually runs over TCP/IP; however, any network protocol that provides ordered, lossless, bi-directional connections can support MQTT. It is designed for connections with remote locations where a'small code footprint' is required or the network bandwidth is limited (Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQTT). Figure 1 explains how to connect the device to the cloud. Let's discuss the components in detail in the sections below.
