Sinequa enhances platform for scientific search and clinical trial data

May 11, 2023 / NewsShark

AI-powered search provider Sinequa has announced domain-specific enhancements to its intelligent search platform for Scientific Search and Clinical Trial Data. Its search platform now utilizes new Neural Search and ChatGPT capabilities for faster, more effective discovery and decisions in drug development and clinical research. Sinequa will present these capabilities at the 2023 Bio-IT World Conference, May 16-18, at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, during conference sessions and at booth #803 in Auditorium Hall C.

Combining the capabilities of Sinequa Neural Search – multiple deep learning and large language models for natural language understanding (NLU) – with the latest ChatGPT models through Azure OpenAI Service, Sinequa enables accurate, fast, traceable semantic search, insight generation, and summarization. Users can query and converse with a secure corpus of data, including proprietary life science systems, enterprise collaboration systems, and external data sources, to answer complex and nuanced questions. Comprehensive search results with high relevance and the ability to generate concise summaries enhance R&D intelligence, optimize clinical trials, and streamline regulatory workflows.

Adobe and Google integrating Firefly and Bard

May 10, 2023 / NewsShark

Adobe and Google are partnering to bring Firefly to Bard, Google’s experimental conversational AI service, with the ability to continue the creative journey further in Adobe Express. With the new Bard by Google integration, users at all skill levels will be able to describe their vision to Bard in their own words to create Firefly generated images directly in Bard and then modify and use them to create designs via Express.

Because Firefly has the CAI’s Content Credentials on by default, every image created in Bard using Firefly will have transparency built in. The CAI’s Content Credentials are a free, open-source tool that serve as a digital “nutrition label.” Content Credentials can show information such as name, date, the tools used to create an image and any edits made to that image. They remain associated with content wherever it is used, published or stored, enabling proper attribution and helping consumers make informed decisions about digital content.

Firefly’s first model is trained on Adobe Stock images, openly licensed content and public domain content where copyright has expired. Enterprise businesses will be able to train Firefly with their own creative collateral in order to generate content in the company’s brand language.

MindsDB and Nixtla enhance time-series forecasting

May 10, 2023 / NewsShark

MindsDB, an open-source applied machine learning platform, announced full integration with Nixtla, an open-source ecosystem that offers time-series forecasting.

Time-series forecasting refers to making scientific predictions based on historical, time-stamped data. It allows data scientists to employ models to predict a future value or classification at a particular point in time, such as forecasting power demand, call volumes, inventory requirements, or supply and demand.

Nixtla offers libraries specifically for time-series forecasting. One of the libraries, StatsForecast, which provides statistical and econometric models, will now function seamlessly within the MindsDB ecosystem. This integration will allow developers using MindsDB to build AI-powered forecasting capabilities and anomaly detection solutions in the database without writing extensive code. MindsDB turns a team of 1,000 developers into 1,000 AI developers with little to no training.

The Nixtla integration includes accurate model implementations, probabilistic forecasting and confidence intervals, support for exogenous variables and static covariates, anomaly detection and time series forecasting. Nixtla’s StatsForecast is optimized for high performance and scalability and uses classical methods, such as ARIMA, rather than deep learning models. This platform means models can be trained quickly and generalized well, making short-time series forecasting easier for developers.

Algolia launches AI-powered Algolia NeuralSearch

May 2, 2023 / NewsShark

Algolia launched Algolia NeuralSearch, their next-generation vector and keyword search in a single API. Algolia NeuralSearch understands natural language and delivers results in milliseconds. Algolia NeuralSearch uses Large Language Models (LLM) and goes further with Algolia’s Neural Hashing for hyper-scale, and constantly learns from user interactions.

Algolia NeuralSearch analyzes the relationships between words and concepts, generating vector representations that capture their meaning. Because vector-based understanding and retrieval is combined with Algolia’s full-text keyword engine, it works for exact matching too. Algolia NeuralSearch addresses the limitation in neural search to scale with their Neural Hashing, which compresses search vectors.

Algolia incorporates AI across three primary functions: query understanding, query retrieval, and ranking of results.

Query understanding – Algolia’s advanced natural language understanding (NLU) and AI-driven vector search provide free-form natural language expression understanding and AI-powered query categorization that prepares and structures a query for analysis. Adaptive Learning based on user feedback fine-tunes intent understanding.
Retrieval – The retrieval process merges the Neural Hashing results in parallel with keywords using the same index for easy retrieval and ranking.
Ranking – The best results are pushed to the top by Algolia’s AI-powered Re-ranking, which takes into account the many signals attached to the search query.

Opinion / Analysis

Software²: A new generation of AIs that become increasingly general by producing their own training data

“… exploration, as typically studied in reinforcement learning (RL) and supervised learning (SL)—where it appears as some variation of active learning—is primarily designed with a static, predefined dataset or simulator in mind … unsuitable for learning in open-ended domains like the real world, where the set of relevant tasks is unbounded and cannot be modeled as a static, predefined data generator.”

Minqi Jiang and colleagues look ahead to continuous, open-ended, generalized exploration, to get beyond this limitation. (14min)
