Reinventing Deep Learning
with Hugging Face Transformers
The document discusses how transformers have become a general-purpose architecture for machine learning, with various transformer models like BERT and GPT-3 seeing widespread adoption. It introduces Hugging Face as a company working to make transformers more accessible through tools and libraries. Hugging Face has seen rapid growth, with its hub hosting over 73,000 models and 10,000 datasets that are downloaded over 1 million times daily. The document outlines Hugging Face's vision of facilitating the entire machine learning process from data to production through tools that support tasks like transfer learning, hardware acceleration, and collaborative model development.
Exploring Generating AI with Diffusion Models
Generative AI models, such as GANs and VAEs, have the potential to create realistic and diverse synthetic data for various applications, from image and speech synthesis to drug discovery and language modeling. However, training these models can be challenging due to the instability and mode collapse issues that often arise. In this workshop, we will explore how stable diffusion, a recent training method that combines diffusion models and Langevin dynamics, can address these challenges and improve the performance and stability of generative models. We will use a pre-configured development environment for machine learning, to run hands-on experiments and train stable diffusion models on different datasets. By the end of the session, attendees will have a better understanding of generative AI and stable diffusion, and how to build and deploy stable generative models for real-world use cases.
Building NLP applications with Transformers
The document discusses how transformer models and transfer learning (Deep Learning 2.0) have improved natural language processing by allowing researchers to easily apply pre-trained models to new tasks with limited data. It presents examples of how HuggingFace has used transformer models for tasks like translation and part-of-speech tagging. The document also discusses tools from HuggingFace that make it easier to train models on hardware accelerators and deploy them to production.
BERT introduction
BERT is a deeply bidirectional, unsupervised language representation model pre-trained using only plain text. It is the first model to use a bidirectional Transformer for pre-training. BERT learns representations from both left and right contexts within text, unlike previous models like ELMo which use independently trained left-to-right and right-to-left LSTMs. BERT was pre-trained on two large text corpora using masked language modeling and next sentence prediction tasks. It establishes new state-of-the-art results on a wide range of natural language understanding benchmarks.
Fine tuning large LMs
This document discusses techniques for fine-tuning large pre-trained language models without access to a supercomputer. It describes the history of transformer models and how transfer learning works. It then outlines several techniques for reducing memory usage during fine-tuning, including reducing batch size, gradient accumulation, gradient checkpointing, mixed precision training, and distributed data parallelism approaches like ZeRO and pipelined parallelism. Resources for implementing these techniques are also provided.
The Future of AI is Generative not Discriminative 5/26/2021
The deep learning AI revolution has been sweeping the world for a decade now. Deep neural nets are routinely used for tasks like translation, fraud detection, and image classification. PwC estimates that they will create $15.7 trillion/year of value by 2030. But most current networks are "discriminative" in that they directly map inputs to predictions. This type of model requires lots of training examples, doesn't generalize well outside of its training set, creates inscrutable representations, is subject to adversarial examples, and makes knowledge transfer difficult. People, in contrast, can learn from just a few examples, generalize far beyond their experience, and can easily transfer and reuse knowledge. In recent years, new kinds of "generative" AI models have begun to exhibit these desirable human characteristics. They represent the causal generative processes by which the data is created and can be compositional, compact, and directly interpretable. Generative AI systems that assist people can model their needs and desires and interact with empathy. Their adaptability to changing circumstances will likely be required by rapidly changing AI-driven business and social systems. Generative AI will be the engine of future AI innovation.
Introduction to Deep Learning, Keras, and TensorFlow
This meetup was recorded in San Francisco on Jan 9, 2019.
Video recording of the session can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/yG1UJEzpJ64
Description:
This fast-paced session starts with a simple yet complete neural network (no frameworks), followed by an overview of activation functions, cost functions, backpropagation, and then a quick dive into CNNs. Next, we'll create a neural network using Keras, followed by an introduction to TensorFlow and TensorBoard. For best results, familiarity with basic vectors and matrices, inner (aka "dot") products of vectors, and rudimentary Python is definitely helpful. If time permits, we'll look at the UAT, CLT, and the Fixed Point Theorem. (Bonus points if you know Zorn's Lemma, the Well-Ordering Theorem, and the Axiom of Choice.)
Oswald's Bio:
Oswald Campesato is an education junkie: a former Ph.D. Candidate in Mathematics (ABD), with multiple Master's and 2 Bachelor's degrees. In a previous career, he worked in South America, Italy, and the French Riviera, which enabled him to travel to 70 countries throughout the world.
He has worked in American and Japanese corporations and start-ups, as C/C++ and Java developer to CTO. He works in the web and mobile space, conducts training sessions in Android, Java, Angular 2, and ReactJS, and he writes graphics code for fun. He's comfortable in four languages and aspires to become proficient in Japanese, ideally sometime in the next two decades. He enjoys collaborating with people who share his passion for learning the latest cool stuff, and he's currently working on his 15th book, which is about Angular 2.

Active Retrieval Augmented Generation.pdf
FLARE proposes a method called Forward-Looking Active REtrieval augmented generation (FLARE) that iteratively retrieves information during text generation based on the predicted upcoming sentence. FLARE uses the predicted next sentence as a query to retrieve documents if it contains low-confidence tokens, then regenerates the sentence. Experiments show FLARE outperforms baselines on multiple knowledge-intensive tasks. However, FLARE did not significantly improve performance on a short-text dataset where continual retrieval of disparate information may not be needed.

NLP using transformers
This document discusses neural network models for natural language processing tasks like machine translation. It describes how recurrent neural networks (RNNs) were used initially but had limitations in capturing long-term dependencies and parallelization. The encoder-decoder framework addressed some issues but still lost context. Attention mechanisms allowed focusing on relevant parts of the input and using all encoded states. Transformers replaced RNNs entirely with self-attention and encoder-decoder attention, allowing parallelization while generating a richer representation capturing word relationships. This revolutionized NLP tasks like machine translation.

Prof. PhD. Piek Th.J.M. Vossen, is Full professor of Computational Lexicology at the Faculty of Humanities, Department of Language, Literature and Communication (LCC) at VU Amsterdam:
What is ChatGPT? What technology and thought processes underlie it? What are its consequences? What choices are being made? In the presentation, Piek will elaborate on the basic principles behind Large Language Models and how they are used as a basis for Deep Learning in which they are fine-tuned for specific tasks. He will also discuss a specific variant GPT that underlies ChatGPT. It covers what ChatGPT can and cannot do, what it is good for and what the risks are.
Retrieval Augmented Generation in Practice: Scalable GenAI platforms with k8s...
Mihai is the Principal Architect for Platform Engineering and Technology Solutions at IBM, responsible for Cloud Native and AI Solutions. He is a Red Hat Certified Architect, CKA/CKS, a leader in the IBM Open Innovation community, and advocate for open source development. Mihai is driving the development of Retrieval Augmentation Generation platforms, and solutions for Generative AI at IBM that leverage WatsonX, Vector databases, LangChain, HuggingFace and open source AI models.
Mihai will share lessons learned building Retrieval Augmented Generation, or “Chat with Documents” platforms and APIs that scale, and deploy on Kubernetes. His talk will cover use cases for Generative AI, limitations of Large Language Models, use of RAG, Vector Databases and Fine Tuning to overcome model limitations and build solutions that connect to your data and provide content grounding, limit hallucinations and form the basis of explainable AI. In terms of technology, he will cover LLAMA2, HuggingFace TGIS, SentenceTransformers embedding models using Python, LangChain, and Weaviate and ChromaDB vector databases.

over time, with different prompts, one-shot, and various parameters
• Chain of Reasoning and Agents
• Caching embeddings and responses
• Personalization and Conversational Memory Database
• Streaming Responses and optimizing performance. A fine tuned 13B model may
perform better than a poor 70B one!
• Calling 3rd party functions or APIs for reasoning or other type of data (ex: LLMs are
terrible at reasoning and prediction, consider calling other models)
• Fallback techniques: fallback to a different model, or default answers
• API scaling techniques, rate limiting, etc.
• Async, streaming and parallelization, multiprocessing, GPU acceleration (including
embeddings), generating your API using OpenAPI, etc.

A Tale of Three Deep Learning Frameworks: TensorFlow, Keras, & PyTorch with B...
We all know what they say – the bigger the data, the better. But when the data gets really big, how do you mine it and what deep learning framework to use? This talk will survey, with a developer’s perspective, three of the most popular deep learning frameworks—TensorFlow, Keras, and PyTorch—as well as when to use their distributed implementations.
We’ll compare code samples from each framework and discuss their integration with distributed computing engines such as Apache Spark (which can handle massive amounts of data) as well as help you answer questions such as:
As a developer how do I pick the right deep learning framework?
Do I want to develop my own model or should I employ an existing one?
How do I strike a trade-off between productivity and control through low-level APIs?
What language should I choose?
In this session, we will explore how to build a deep learning application with Tensorflow, Keras, or PyTorch in under 30 minutes. After this session, you will walk away with the confidence to evaluate which framework is best for you.

A Tale of Three Deep Learning Frameworks: TensorFlow, Keras, & PyTorch with B...
We all know what they say – the bigger the data, the better. But when the data gets really big, how do you mine it and what deep learning framework to use? This talk will survey, with a developer’s perspective, three of the most popular deep learning frameworks—TensorFlow, Keras, and PyTorch—as well as when to use their distributed implementations.
We’ll compare code samples from each framework and discuss their integration with distributed computing engines such as Apache Spark (which can handle massive amounts of data) as well as help you answer questions such as:
As a developer how do I pick the right deep learning framework?
Do I want to develop my own model or should I employ an existing one?
How do I strike a trade-off between productivity and control through low-level APIs?
What language should I choose?
In this session, we will explore how to build a deep learning application with Tensorflow, Keras, or PyTorch in under 30 minutes. After this session, you will walk away with the confidence to evaluate which framework is best for you.

Deep learning technologies are at the core of the current revolution in artificial intelligence for multimedia data analysis. The convergence of big annotated data and affordable GPU hardware has allowed the training of neural networks for data analysis tasks which had been addressed until now with hand-crafted features. Architectures such as convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks and Q-nets for reinforcement learning have shaped a brand new scenario in signal processing. This course will cover the basic principles and applications of deep learning to computer vision problems, such as image classification, object detection or text captioning.Performance and how to measure it - ProgSCon London 2016

Feature Engineering - Getting most out of data for predictive models
How should data be preprocessed for use in machine learning algorithms? How to identify the most predictive attributes of a dataset? What features can generate to improve the accuracy of a model?
Feature Engineering is the process of extracting and selecting, from raw data, features that can be used effectively in predictive models. As the quality of the features greatly influences the quality of the results, knowing the main techniques and pitfalls will help you to succeed in the use of machine learning in your projects.
In this talk, we will present methods and techniques that allow us to extract the maximum potential of the features of a dataset, increasing flexibility, simplicity and accuracy of the models. The analysis of the distribution of features and their correlations, the transformation of numeric attributes (such as scaling, normalization, log-based transformation, binning), categorical attributes (such as one-hot encoding, feature hashing, Temporal (date / time), and free-text attributes (text vectorization, topic modeling).
Python, Python, Scikit-learn, and Spark SQL examples will be presented and how to use domain knowledge and intuition to select and generate features relevant to predictive models.
Accelerating Deep Learning Training with BigDL and Drizzle on Apache Spark wi...
The BigDL framework scales deep learning for large data sets using Apache Spark. However there is significant scheduling overhead from Spark when running BigDL at large scale. In this talk we propose a new parameter manager implementation that along with coarse-grained scheduling can provide significant speedups for deep learning models like Inception, VGG etc. Aggregation functions like reduce or treeReduce that are used for parameter aggregation in Apache Spark (and the original MapReduce) are slow as the centralized scheduling and driver network bandwidth become a bottleneck especially in large clusters.
To reduce the overhead of parameter aggregation and allow for near-linear scaling, we introduce a new AllReduce operation, a part of the parameter manager in BigDL which is built directly on top of the BlockManager in Apache Spark. AllReduce in BigDL uses a peer-to-peer mechanism to synchronize and aggregate parameters. During parameter synchronization and aggregation, all nodes in the cluster play the same role and driver’s overhead is eliminated thus enabling near-linear scaling. To address the scheduling overhead we use Drizzle, a recently proposed scheduling framework for Apache Spark. Currently, Spark uses a BSP computation model, and notifies the scheduler at the end of each task. Invoking the scheduler at the end of each task adds overheads and results in decreased throughput and increased latency.
Drizzle introduces group scheduling, where multiple iterations (or a group) of iterations are scheduled at once. This helps decouple the granularity of task execution from scheduling and amortizes the costs of task serialization and launch. Finally we will present results from using the new AllReduce operation and Drizzle on a number of common deep learning models including VGG and Inception. Our benchmarks run on Amazon EC2 and Google DataProc will show the speedups and scalability of our implementation.

Build, train, and deploy machine learning models at scale
Machine learning often feels a lot more difficult than it should be because the process of building and training models, and deploying them into production is complicated and slow. Amazon SageMaker is a fully-managed service that enables developers and data scientists to quickly and easily build, train, and deploy machine learning models at any scale. Apache MXNet and TensorFlow are pre-installed, and Amazon SageMaker offers a range of built-in, high-performance machine learning algorithms. If you want to train with an alternative framework or algorithm, you can bring your own in a Docker container.

Workshop "Can my .NET application use less CPU / RAM?", Yevhen Tatarynov
In most cases it’s very hard to predict the number of resources needed for your .NET application. But If you spot some abnormal CPU or RAM usage, how to answer the question “Can my application use less?”.
Let’s see samples from real projects, where optimal resource usage by the application became one of the values for the product owner and see how less resource consumption can be.
The workshop will be actual for .NET developers who are interested in optimization of .NET applications, QA engineers who involved performance testing of .NET applications. It also will be interesting to everyone who "suspected" their .NET applications of non-optimal use of resources, but for some reason did not start an investigation.

Distributed Deep Learning with Apache Spark and TensorFlow with Jim Dowling
Methods that scale with available computation are the future of AI. Distributed deep learning is one such method that enables data scientists to massively increase their productivity by (1) running parallel experiments over many devices (GPUs/TPUs/servers) and (2) massively reducing training time by distributing the training of a single network over many devices. Apache Spark is a key enabling platform for distributed deep learning, as it enables different deep learning frameworks to be embedded in Spark workflows in a secure end-to-end pipeline. In this talk, we examine the different ways in which Tensorflow can be included in Spark workflows to build distributed deep learning applications.
We will analyse the different frameworks for integrating Spark with Tensorflow, from Horovod to TensorflowOnSpark to Databrick’s Deep Learning Pipelines. We will also look at where you will find the bottlenecks when training models (in your frameworks, the network, GPUs, and with your data scientists) and how to get around them. We will look at how to use Spark Estimator model to perform hyper-parameter optimization with Spark/TensorFlow and model-architecture search, where Spark executors perform experiments in parallel to automatically find good model architectures.
The talk will include a live demonstration of training and inference for a Tensorflow application embedded in a Spark pipeline written in a Jupyter notebook on the Hops platform. We will show how to debug the application using both Spark UI and Tensorboard, and how to examine logs and monitor training. The demo will be run on the Hops platform, currently used by over 450 researchers and students in Sweden, as well as at companies such as Scania and Ericsson.

Towards a Unified Data Analytics Optimizer with Yanlei Diao
Today’s big data analytics systems are best effort only: despite the wide adoption, they still lack the ability to take user monetary constraints and performance goals, and automatically configure an analytic job to achieve those goals. Our work aims to take a step further towards building a new data analytics optimizer that works for arbitrary dataflow programs and determines the job configuration in an automated manner based on user objectives regarding latency, throughput, monetary cost, etc.
At the core of the optimizer are a principled multi-objective optimization framework that enables one to explore the tradeoffs between different objectives, and a deep learning-based modeling approach that can learn a model for each user objective as complex as necessary for the user computing environment. Using both SQL-like and machine learning jobs in Spark, we show that our techniques can learn a model of each objective with high accuracy, and the multi-objective optimizer can automatically recommend new configurations that significantly improve performance from the configurations manually set by engineers.

You will also learn five critical steps for a successful migration to the Databricks Lakehouse Platform along with the resources available to help you begin to re-skill your data teams.
Democratizing Data Quality Through a Centralized Platform
Bad data leads to bad decisions and broken customer experiences. Organizations depend on complete and accurate data to power their business, maintain efficiency, and uphold customer trust. With thousands of datasets and pipelines running, how do we ensure that all data meets quality standards, and that expectations are clear between producers and consumers? Investing in shared, flexible components and practices for monitoring data health is crucial for a complex data organization to rapidly and effectively scale.
At Zillow, we built a centralized platform to meet our data quality needs across stakeholders. The platform is accessible to engineers, scientists, and analysts, and seamlessly integrates with existing data pipelines and data discovery tools. In this presentation, we will provide an overview of our platform’s capabilities, including:
Giving producers and consumers the ability to define and view data quality expectations using a self-service onboarding portal
Performing data quality validations using libraries built to work with spark
Dynamically generating pipelines that can be abstracted away from users
Flagging data that doesn’t meet quality standards at the earliest stage and giving producers the opportunity to resolve issues before use by downstream consumers
Exposing data quality metrics alongside each dataset to provide producers and consumers with a comprehensive picture of health over time
Learn to Use Databricks for Data Science
Data scientists face numerous challenges throughout the data science workflow that hinder productivity. As organizations continue to become more data-driven, a collaborative environment is more critical than ever — one that provides easier access and visibility into the data, reports and dashboards built against the data, reproducibility, and insights uncovered within the data.. Join us to hear how Databricks’ open and collaborative platform simplifies data science by enabling you to run all types of analytics workloads, from data preparation to exploratory analysis and predictive analytics, at scale — all on one unified platform.
Why APM Is Not the Same As ML Monitoring
Application performance monitoring (APM) has become the cornerstone of software engineering allowing engineering teams to quickly identify and remedy production issues. However, as the world moves to intelligent software applications that are built using machine learning, traditional APM quickly becomes insufficient to identify and remedy production issues encountered in these modern software applications.
As a lead software engineer at NewRelic, my team built high-performance monitoring systems including Insights, Mobile, and SixthSense. As I transitioned to building ML Monitoring software, I found the architectural principles and design choices underlying APM to not be a good fit for this brand new world. In fact, blindly following APM designs led us down paths that would have been better left unexplored.
In this talk, I draw upon my (and my team’s) experience building an ML Monitoring system from the ground up and deploying it on customer workloads running large-scale ML training with Spark as well as real-time inference systems. I will highlight how the key principles and architectural choices of APM don’t apply to ML monitoring. You’ll learn why, understand what ML Monitoring can successfully borrow from APM, and hear what is required to build a scalable, robust ML Monitoring architecture.
The Function, the Context, and the Data—Enabling ML Ops at Stitch Fix
Autonomy and ownership are core to working at Stitch Fix, particularly on the Algorithms team. We enable data scientists to deploy and operate their models independently, with minimal need for handoffs or gatekeeping. By writing a simple function and calling out to an intuitive API, data scientists can harness a suite of platform-provided tooling meant to make ML operations easy. In this talk, we will dive into the abstractions the Data Platform team has built to enable this. We will go over the interface data scientists use to specify a model and what that hooks into, including online deployment, batch execution on Spark, and metrics tracking and visualization.
Stage Level Scheduling Improving Big Data and AI Integration
In this talk, I will dive into the stage level scheduling feature added to Apache Spark 3.1. Stage level scheduling extends upon Project Hydrogen by improving big data ETL and AI integration and also enables multiple other use cases. It is beneficial any time the user wants to change container resources between stages in a single Apache Spark application, whether those resources are CPU, Memory or GPUs. One of the most popular use cases is enabling end-to-end scalable Deep Learning and AI to efficiently use GPU resources. In this type of use case, users read from a distributed file system, do data manipulation and filtering to get the data into a format that the Deep Learning algorithm needs for training or inference and then sends the data into a Deep Learning algorithm. Using stage level scheduling combined with accelerator aware scheduling enables users to seamlessly go from ETL to Deep Learning running on the GPU by adjusting the container requirements for different stages in Spark within the same application. This makes writing these applications easier and can help with hardware utilization and costs.
There are other ETL use cases where users want to change CPU and memory resources between stages, for instance there is data skew or perhaps the data size is much larger in certain stages of the application. In this talk, I will go over the feature details, cluster requirements, the API and use cases. I will demo how the stage level scheduling API can be used by Horovod to seamlessly go from data preparation to training using the Tensorflow Keras API using GPUs.
The talk will also touch on other new Apache Spark 3.1 functionality, such as pluggable caching, which can be used to enable faster dataframe access when operating from GPUs.
Simplify Data Conversion from Spark to TensorFlow and PyTorch
In this talk, I would like to introduce an open-source tool built by our team that simplifies the data conversion from Apache Spark to deep learning frameworks.
Imagine you have a large dataset, say 20 GBs, and you want to use it to train a TensorFlow model. Before feeding the data to the model, you need to clean and preprocess your data using Spark. Now you have your dataset in a Spark DataFrame. When it comes to the training part, you may have the problem: How can I convert my Spark DataFrame to some format recognized by my TensorFlow model?
The existing data conversion process can be tedious. For example, to convert an Apache Spark DataFrame to a TensorFlow Dataset file format, you need to either save the Apache Spark DataFrame on a distributed filesystem in parquet format and load the converted data with third-party tools such as Petastorm, or save it directly in TFRecord files with spark-tensorflow-connector and load it back using TFRecordDataset. Both approaches take more than 20 lines of code to manage the intermediate data files, rely on different parsing syntax, and require extra attention for handling vector columns in the Spark DataFrames. In short, all these engineering frictions greatly reduced the data scientists’ productivity.
The Databricks Machine Learning team contributed a new Spark Dataset Converter API to Petastorm to simplify these tedious data conversion process steps. With the new API, it takes a few lines of code to convert a Spark DataFrame to a TensorFlow Dataset or a PyTorch DataLoader with default parameters.
In the talk, I will use an example to show how to use the Spark Dataset Converter to train a Tensorflow model and how simple it is to go from single-node training to distributed training on Databricks.
Scaling your Data Pipelines with Apache Spark on Kubernetes
There is no doubt Kubernetes has emerged as the next generation of cloud native infrastructure to support a wide variety of distributed workloads. Apache Spark has evolved to run both Machine Learning and large scale analytics workloads. There is growing interest in running Apache Spark natively on Kubernetes. By combining the flexibility of Kubernetes and scalable data processing with Apache Spark, you can run any data and machine pipelines on this infrastructure while effectively utilizing resources at disposal.
In this talk, Rajesh Thallam and Sougata Biswas will share how to effectively run your Apache Spark applications on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Google Cloud Dataproc, orchestrate the data and machine learning pipelines with managed Apache Airflow on GKE (Google Cloud Composer). Following topics will be covered: – Understanding key traits of Apache Spark on Kubernetes- Things to know when running Apache Spark on Kubernetes such as autoscaling- Demonstrate running analytics pipelines on Apache Spark orchestrated with Apache Airflow on Kubernetes cluster.
Scaling and Unifying SciKit Learn and Apache Spark Pipelines
Pipelines have become ubiquitous, as the need for stringing multiple functions to compose applications has gained adoption and popularity. Common pipeline abstractions such as “fit” and “transform” are even shared across divergent platforms such as Python Scikit-Learn and Apache Spark.
Scaling pipelines at the level of simple functions is desirable for many AI applications, however is not directly supported by Ray’s parallelism primitives. In this talk, Raghu will describe a pipeline abstraction that takes advantage of Ray’s compute model to efficiently scale arbitrarily complex pipeline workflows. He will demonstrate how this abstraction cleanly unifies pipeline workflows across multiple platforms such as Scikit-Learn and Spark, and achieves nearly optimal scale-out parallelism on pipelined computations.
Attendees will learn how pipelined workflows can be mapped to Ray’s compute model and how they can both unify and accelerate their pipelines with Ray.
Sawtooth Windows for Feature Aggregations
In this talk about zipline, we will introduce a new type of windowing construct called a sawtooth window. We will describe various properties about sawtooth windows that we utilize to achieve online-offline consistency, while still maintaining high-throughput, low-read latency and tunable write latency for serving machine learning features.We will also talk about a simple deployment strategy for correcting feature drift – due operations that are not “abelian groups”, that operate over change data.
Redis + Apache Spark = Swiss Army Knife Meets Kitchen Sink
We want to present multiple anti patterns utilizing Redis in unconventional ways to get the maximum out of Apache Spark.All examples presented are tried and tested in production at Scale at Adobe. The most common integration is spark-redis which interfaces with Redis as a Dataframe backing Store or as an upstream for Structured Streaming. We deviate from the common use cases to explore where Redis can plug gaps while scaling out high throughput applications in Spark.
Niche 1 : Long Running Spark Batch Job – Dispatch New Jobs by polling a Redis Queue
· Why?
o Custom queries on top a table; We load the data once and query N times
· Why not Structured Streaming
· Working Solution using Redis
Niche 2 : Distributed Counters

· Utilize Redis Hashes as distributed counters
· Precautions for retries and speculative execution
· Pipelining to improve performance
Re-imagine Data Monitoring with whylogs and Spark
In the era of microservices, decentralized ML architectures and complex data pipelines, data quality has become a bigger challenge than ever. When data is involved in complex business processes and decisions, bad data can, and will, affect the bottom line. As a result, ensuring data quality across the entire ML pipeline is both costly, and cumbersome while data monitoring is often fragmented and performed ad hoc. To address these challenges, we built whylogs, an open source standard for data logging. It is a lightweight data profiling library that enables end-to-end data profiling across the entire software stack. The library implements a language and platform agnostic approach to data quality and data monitoring. It can work with different modes of data operations, including streaming, batch and IoT data.
In this talk, we will provide an overview of the whylogs architecture, including its lightweight statistical data collection approach and various integrations. We will demonstrate how the whylogs integration with Apache Spark achieves large scale data profiling, and we will show how users can apply this integration into existing data and ML pipelines.
Raven: End-to-end Optimization of ML Prediction Queries
Machine learning (ML) models are typically part of prediction queries that consist of a data processing part (e.g., for joining, filtering, cleaning, featurization) and an ML part invoking one or more trained models. In this presentation, we identify significant and unexplored opportunities for optimization. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first effort to look at prediction queries holistically, optimizing across both the ML and SQL components.
We will present Raven, an end-to-end optimizer for prediction queries. Raven relies on a unified intermediate representation that captures both data processing and ML operators in a single graph structure.
This allows us to introduce optimization rules that
(i) reduce unnecessary computations by passing information between the data processing and ML operators
(ii) leverage operator transformations (e.g., turning a decision tree to a SQL expression or an equivalent neural network) to map operators to the right execution engine, and
(iii) integrate compiler techniques to take advantage of the most efficient hardware backend (e.g., CPU, GPU) for each operator.
We have implemented Raven as an extension to Spark’s Catalyst optimizer to enable the optimization of SparkSQL prediction queries. Our implementation also allows the optimization of prediction queries in SQL Server. As we will show, Raven is capable of improving prediction query performance on Apache Spark and SQL Server by up to 13.1x and 330x, respectively. For complex models, where GPU acceleration is beneficial, Raven provides up to 8x speedup compared to state-of-the-art systems. As part of the presentation, we will also give a demo showcasing Raven in action.
Processing Large Datasets for ADAS Applications using Apache Spark
Semantic segmentation is the classification of every pixel in an image/video. The segmentation partitions a digital image into multiple objects to simplify/change the representation of the image into something that is more meaningful and easier to analyze [1][2]. The technique has a wide variety of applications ranging from perception in autonomous driving scenarios to cancer cell segmentation for medical diagnosis.
Exponential growth in the datasets that require such segmentation is driven by improvements in the accuracy and quality of the sensors generating the data extending to 3D point cloud data. This growth is further compounded by exponential advances in cloud technologies enabling the storage and compute available for such applications. The need for semantically segmented datasets is a key requirement to improve the accuracy of inference engines that are built upon them.
Streamlining the accuracy and efficiency of these systems directly affects the value of the business outcome for organizations that are developing such functionalities as a part of their AI strategy.
This presentation details workflows for labeling, preprocessing, modeling, and evaluating performance/accuracy. Scientists and engineers leverage domain-specific features/tools that support the entire workflow from labeling the ground truth, handling data from a wide variety of sources/formats, developing models and finally deploying these models. Users can scale their deployments optimally on GPU-based cloud infrastructure to build accelerated training and inference pipelines while working with big datasets. These environments are optimized for engineers to develop such functionality with ease and then scale against large datasets with Spark-based clusters on the cloud.
Massive Data Processing in Adobe Using Delta Lake
At Adobe Experience Platform, we ingest TBs of data every day and manage PBs of data for our customers as part of the Unified Profile Offering. At the heart of this is a bunch of complex ingestion of a mix of normalized and denormalized data with various linkage scenarios power by a central Identity Linking Graph. This helps power various marketing scenarios that are activated in multiple platforms and channels like email, advertisements etc. We will go over how we built a cost effective and scalable data pipeline using Apache Spark and Delta Lake and share our experiences.

Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headed
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.
Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdf
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.
Why do we need yet another (open-source ) Copilot?
How can we build one?

State of Artificial intelligence Report 2023
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a multidisciplinary field of science and engineering whose goal is to create intelligent machines.
We believe that AI will be a force multiplier on technological progress in our increasingly digital, data-driven world. This is because everything around us today, ranging from culture to consumer products, is a product of intelligence.
The State of AI Report is now in its sixth year. Consider this report as a compilation of the most interesting things we’ve seen with a goal of triggering an informed conversation about the state of AI and its implication for the future.
We consider the following key dimensions in our report:
Research: Technology breakthroughs and their capabilities.
Industry: Areas of commercial application for AI and its business impact.
Politics: Regulation of AI, its economic implications and the evolving geopolitics of AI.
Safety: Identifying and mitigating catastrophic risks that highly-capable future AI systems could pose to us.
Predictions: What we believe will happen in the next 12 months and a 2022 performance review to keep us honest.

【业务选择办理准则】
一、工作未确定，回国需先给父母、亲戚朋友看下文凭的情况，办理一份就读学校的毕业证【微信41543339】文凭即可
二、回国进私企、外企、自己做生意的情况，这些单位是不查询毕业证真伪的，而且国内没有渠道去查询国外文凭的真假，也不需要提供真实教育部认证。鉴于此，办理一份毕业证【微信41543339】即可
三、进国企，银行，事业单位，考公务员等等，这些单位是必需要提供真实教育部认证的，办理教育部认证所需资料众多且烦琐，所有材料您都必须提供原件，我们凭借丰富的经验，快捷的绿色通道帮您快速整合材料，让您少走弯路。

06-04-2024 - NYC Tech Week - Discussion on Vector Databases, Unstructured Data and AI
Discussion on Vector Databases, Unstructured Data and AI
https://www.meetup.com/unstructured-data-meetup-new-york/
This meetup is for people working in unstructured data. Speakers will come present about related topics such as vector databases, LLMs, and managing data at scale. The intended audience of this group includes roles like machine learning engineers, data scientists, data engineers, software engineers, and PMs.This meetup was formerly Milvus Meetup, and is sponsored by Zilliz maintainers of Milvus.
The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Database
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.
