Choosing which machine learning model to use, sharing a model with a colleague, and quickly trying out a model are all reasons why you may find yourself wanting to quickly run inference on a model. You can configure your environment and download Jupyter notebooks, but it would be nicer if there was a way to Read more
Scale, performance, and efficient deployment of state-of-the-art Deep Learning models are ubiquitous challenges as applied machine learning grows across the industry. We’re happy to see that the ONNX Runtime Machine Learning model inferencing solution we’ve built and use in high-volume Microsoft products and services also resonates with our open source community, enabling new capabilities that Read more
This post was co-authored by Jithun Nair and Aswin Mathews, members of technical staff at AMD. In recent years, large-scale deep learning models have demonstrated impressive capabilities, excelling at tasks across natural language processing, computer vision, and speech domains. Companies now use these models to power novel AI-driven user experiences across a whole spectrum of Read more
ONNX Runtime now supports building mobile applications in C# with Xamarin. Support for Android and iOS is included in the ONNX Runtime release 1.10 NuGet package. This enables C# developers to build AI applications for Android and iOS to execute ONNX models on mobile devices with ONNX Runtime. ONNX Runtime is the open source project Read more
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
With a simple change to your PyTorch training script, you can now speed up training large language models with torch_ort.ORTModule, running on the target hardware of your choice. Training deep learning models requires ever-increasing compute and memory resources. Today we release torch_ort.ORTModule, to accelerate distributed training of PyTorch models, reducing the time and resources needed Read more
This post was co-authored by Jeff Daily, a Principal Member of Technical Staff, Deep Learning Software for AMD. ONNX Runtime is an open-source project that is designed to accelerate machine learning across a wide range of frameworks, operating systems, and hardware platforms. Today, we are excited to announce a preview version of ONNX Runtime in Read more
This post was co-authored by Alejandro Saucedo, Director of Machine Learning Engineering at Seldon Technologies. About the co-author: Alejandro leads teams of machine learning engineers focused on the scalability and extensibility of machine learning deployment and monitoring products with over five million installations. Alejandro is also the Chief Scientist at the Institute for Ethical AI Read more
“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
Watch our webinar on Open Data Science Conference Read the white paper on SmartNoise Differential Privacy machine learning case studies The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates the tremendous importance of sufficient and relevant data for research, causal analysis, government action, and medical progress. However, for understandable data protection considerations, individuals and decision-makers are often very reluctant to share personal or sensitive data. Read more
Scikit-learn is one of the most useful libraries for general machine learning in Python. To minimize the cost of deployment and avoid discrepancies, deploying scikit-learn models to production usually leverages Docker containers and pickle, the object serialization module of the Python standard library. Docker is a good way to create consistent environments and pickle saves Read more
Since its open source debut two years ago, ONNX Runtime has seen strong growth with performance improvements, expanded platform and device compatibility, hardware accelerator support, an extension to training acceleration, and more. We are excited by its broad usage in production, powering more than a hundred models across Microsoft products and services and bringing concrete Read more
