Optimizing and deploying transformer INT8 inference with ONNX Runtime-TensorRT on NVIDIA GPUs
Mohit Ayani, Solutions Architect, NVIDIA Shang Zhang, Senior AI Developer Technology Engineer, NVIDIA Jay Rodge, Product Marketing Manager-AI, NVIDIA Transformer-based models have revolutionized the natural language processing (NLP) domain. Ever since its inception, transformer architecture has been integrated into models like Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) and Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) for performing tasks Read more
ONNX Runtime Web—running your machine learning model in browser
We are introducing ONNX Runtime Web (ORT Web), a new feature in ONNX Runtime to enable JavaScript developers to run and deploy machine learning models in browsers. It also helps enable new classes of on-device computation. ORT Web will be replacing the soon to be deprecated onnx.js, with improvements such as a more consistent developer Read more
Journey to optimize large scale transformer model inference with ONNX Runtime
“With its resource-efficient and high-performance nature, ONNX Runtime helped us meet the need of deploying a large-scale multi-layer generative transformer model for code, a.k.a., GPT-C, to empower IntelliCode with the whole line of code completion suggestions in Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code.” Large-scale transformer models, such as GPT-2 and GPT-3, are among the most Read more
Microsoft open sources breakthrough optimizations for transformer inference on GPU and CPU
This post is co-authored by Emma Ning, Azure Machine Learning; Nathan Yan, Azure Machine Learning; Jeffrey Zhu, Bing; Jason Li, Bing One of the most popular deep learning models used for natural language processing is BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers). Due to the significant computation required, inferencing BERT at high scale can be extremely Read more
