An example of AI inference would be a self-driving car that is capable of recognizing a stop sign, even on a road it has never driven on before. The process of identifying this stop sign in a new context is inference. Another example: A machine learning model trained on the past perform...
AI inference is a phase in the AI model lifecycle that follows the AI training phase. Think of AI model training as machine learning (ML) algorithms doing their homework and AI inference as acing a test. AI training involves presenting large, curated data sets to the model so it can learn...
What Is Sparsity in AI? In AI inference and machine learning, sparsity refers to a matrix of numbers that includes many zeros or values that will not significantly impact a calculation. For years, researchers in machine learning have been playing a kind of Jenga with numbers in their efforts ...
If anyone is going to make use of all that training in the real world, and that’s the whole point, what you need is a speedy application that can retain the learning and apply it quickly to data it’s never seen. That’s inference: taking smaller batches of real-world data and quic...
The two major stages of a neural network’s development are training and inference. Training is the initial stage in which the deep learning algorithm is provided with a data set and tasked with interpreting what that data set represents. Engineers then provide the neural network with feedback ...

Machine learning is the technique of training a computer to find patterns, make predictions, and learn from experience without being explicitly programmed.
In the standard language of neural nets, our model is like a discrete analog of a recurrent convolutional network. It’s “convolutional” because at any given step the same rule is applied—locally—throughout an array of elements. It’s “recurrent” because in effect da...
