Machine learning algorithms — together with many other advanced data processing paradigms — fit incredibly well to the parallel-architecture that GPU computing offers. In this article you’ll learn how to write your own GPU accelerated algorithms in Python, which you will be able to run on virtually any GPU hardware, including non-NVIDIA GPUs.
 
 
 
Machine learning metadata management is becoming a key challenge in production AI systems. We have started mapping the ecosystem of Open Source metadata management frameworks - check out the tools and like always contribution are greatly appreciated.
 
 
 
Our talk at the PyData Global has now been published, where we cover the principles, standards, tools and practical frameworks towards responsible development and operation of AI systems.
 
 
 
Seldon MLOps Developer Ryan Dawson has put together a fantastic article covering the concepts, challenges and solutions around machine learning model deployment and orchestration.
 
 
 
Stanford has published their seminar videos on the frontier of machine learning systems, covering key concepts around challenges and solutions in AI research and industry in conversation with thought leaders in the space.
 
 
 
 
 
The topic for this week's featured production machine learning libraries is Metadata Management. We are currently looking for more libraries to add - if you know of any that are not listed, please let us know or feel free to add a PR. The four featured libraries this week are:
 
  • Amundsen - Amundsen is a metadata driven application for improving the productivity of data analysts, data scientists and engineers when interacting with data.
  • Apache Atlas - Apache Atlas framework is an extensible set of core foundational governance services – enabling enterprises to effectively and efficiently meet their compliance requirements within Hadoop and allows integration with the whole enterprise data ecosystem.
  • DataHub - DataHub is LinkedIn's generalized metadata search & discovery tool.
  • Metacat - Metacat is a unified metadata exploration API service. Metacat focusses on solving these three problems: 1) Federate views of metadata systems. 2) Allow arbitrary metadata storage about data sets. 3) Metadata discovery.
 
If you know of any libraries that are not in the "Awesome MLOps" list, please do give us a heads up or feel free to add a pull request
 
 
 
 
As AI systems become more prevalent in society, we face bigger and tougher societal challenges. We have seen a large number of resources that aim to takle these challenges in the form of AI Guidelines, Principles, Ethics Frameworks, etc, however there are so many resources it is hard to navigate. Because of this we started an Open Source initiative that aims to map the ecosystem to make it simpler to navigate. You can find multiple principles in the repo - some examples include the following:
 
 
If you know of any guidelines that are not in the "Awesome AI Guidelines" list, please do give us a heads up or feel free to add a pull request
