To develop Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) solutions, it’s essential to have a variety of technical tools that facilitate research, design, implementation, and deployment of models. Below are some of the key tools typically used by AI teams:
Machine Learning Frameworks.
These tools provide a wide range of predefined functions that simplify the model development process for ML.
– Scikit-learn (sklearn): This is the primary tool for machine learning, offering a variety of algorithms for classification, regression, or clustering, among others.
– PyTorch: This is the leading tool for deep learning, especially appreciated by the research community due to its flexibility and intuitive design.
– TensorFlow: An alternative framework for deep learning projects.
Research Publications.
– Arxiv: This is a preprint platform where researchers upload their papers before they are officially published. It’s a valuable source to keep up with the latest advancements in AI and ML.
Code Repositories, Models, and Datasets.
– GitHub: This is the leading platform for hosting open-source projects. Many ML and DL researchers and developers share their algorithm and technique implementations here, facilitating community collaboration and learning.
– HuggingFace: This is the leading platform for hosting and sharing open-source ML and DL models and datasets.
GPUs (Graphics Processing Units).
GPUs are essential for the efficient processing of neural networks and deep learning tasks.
– Manufacturers like NVIDIA (a standout leader), Google, and Qualcomm are GPU providers.
Cloud Hosting or On-Premises Hosting.
– Cloud Hosting: Platforms like Google Cloud, AWS, and Microsoft Azure offer cloud services that allow for large-scale ML model training and deployment without the need for one’s physical infrastructure.
– On-Premises Hosting: This requires having physical servers on the company’s premises. It’s a preferred option for certain organizations seeking more control or facing security restrictions. The concept of “edge computing” fits here, where processing happens on the device itself, as in the case of an autonomous car.
The above is an excerpt from the book “Keys to Artificial Intelligence” by Julio Colomer, CEO of AI Accelera, also available in a mobile-friendly ebook version.
At AI Accelera, our goal is to make the vast potential of Artificial Intelligence accessible to businesses, professionals, startups, and students from all over the world. See how we can help you.
