Posted by Tal Schuster, Research Scientist, Google Research Language models (LMs) are the driving force behind many recent breakthroughs in natural language processing. Models like T5, LaMDA, GPT-3, and PaLM have demonstrated impressive performance on various language tasks. While multiple factors can contribute to improving the performance of LMs, some recent studies suggest that scaling …

Foundation models are large deep learning models trained on a vast quantity of data at scale. They can be further fine-tuned to perform a variety of downstream tasks and form the core backbone of enabling several AI applications. The most prominent category is large-language models (LLM), including auto-regressive models such as GPT variants trained to complete …

Proper estimation of predictive uncertainty is fundamental in applications that involve critical decisions. Uncertainty can be used to assess the reliability of model predictions, trigger human intervention, or decide whether a model can be safely deployed in the wild. We introduce Fortuna, an open-source library for uncertainty quantification. Fortuna provides calibration methods, such as conformal …

In an increasingly data-centric world, enterprises must focus on gathering both valuable physical information and generating the information that they need but can’t easily capture. Data access, regulation, and compliance are an increasing source of friction for innovation in analytics and artificial intelligence (AI). For highly regulated sectors such as Financial Services, Healthcare, Life Sciences, …

Developing and training successful machine learning (ML) fraud models requires access to large amounts of high-quality data. Sourcing this data is challenging because available datasets are sometimes not large enough or sufficiently unbiased to usefully train the ML model and may require significant cost and time. Regulation and privacy requirements further prevent data use or …
