The world of finance and stock trading has changed in recent years. As more and more retail investors enter the market, the more important stories and social sentiment become. Think Tesla - one can argue that a lot of the company's value comes from successful social storytelling by its CEO Elon Musk. Social media has… Read More Classifying Finance Tweets in Real-Time with Sparse Transformers

We are excited to share a recent conversation between Neural Magic and Weaviate. We've been collaborating with Weaviate in an effort to help companies scale machine learning efforts to enterprise-grade production, as many business use cases require robust ML pipelines through information retrieval, semantic search, image similarity search, recommendations, classification, and more. Weaviate is a… Read More Build Efficient Vector Search on CPUs with Neural Magic and Weaviate

If you have a text classification task at hand, exploring the zero-shot learning approach is a no-brainer. Zero-shot enables you to classify text without the need for model retraining, making it easier and faster to get started. However, zero-shot is very compute-intensive given it needs to infer each candidate label. Enter sparsity to save the… Read More Faster Zero-Shot Learning with Sparsity

This YOLOv5 blog post was edited in September 2022 to reflect more-recent sparsification research, software updates, better performance numbers, and easier benchmarking and transfer learning flows. Prune and Quantize YOLOv5 for a 12x Increase in Performance and a 12x Decrease in Model Files Neural Magic improves YOLOv5 model performance on CPUs by using state-of-the-art pruning… Read More YOLOv5 on CPUs: Sparsifying to Achieve GPU-Level Performance and a Smaller Footprint

Compress BERT-Large with pruning and quantization to create a version that maintains accuracy while beating baseline DistilBERT performance and compression In 2019, BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding, a research paper from Google research, introduced two versions of a transformative new NLP model: BERT-base and BERT-Large. Both were transformer-based architectures pre-trained on… Read More BERT-Large: Prune Once for DistilBERT Inference Performance
