| Challenge: | Large language models (LLMs) have high computational and memory requirements, especially for devices with limited memory. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that stores model parameters in flash memory but brings them on demand to DRAM . authors propose two techniques to optimize for reading data in larger, more contiguous chunks . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method reduces the volume of data transferred from flash and reads data in larger, more contiguous chunks. |
VeeAlign: Multifaceted Context Representation Using Dual Attention for Ontology Alignment (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | State-of-the-art Ontology Alignment systems are based on domain-dependent approaches with handcrafted rules or domain-specific architectures, making them unscalable and inefficient. |
| Approach: | They propose a Deep Learning based model that exploits syntactic and semantic information encoded in ontologies by using a dual-attention mechanism. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model exploits syntactic and semantic information encoded in ontologies and is flexible and scalable to different domains with minimal effort. |
