No More Tableau Downtime: Metadata API for Proactive Data Health

In today’s world, the reliability of data solutions is everything. When we build dashboards and reports, one expects that the numbers reflected there are correct and up-to-date. Based on these numbers, insights are drawn and actions are taken. For any unforeseen reason, if the dashboards are broken or if the numbers are incorrect — then it becomes […]
Algorithm Protection in the Context of Federated Learning

While working at a biotech company, we aim to advance ML & AI Algorithms to enable, for example, brain lesion segmentation to be executed at the hospital/clinic location where patient data resides, so it is processed in a secure manner. This, in essence, is guaranteed by federated learning mechanisms, which we have adopted in numerous […]
R.E.D.: Scaling Text Classification with Expert Delegation

With the new age of problem-solving augmented by Large Language Models (LLMs), only a handful of problems remain that have subpar solutions. Most classification problems (at a PoC level) can be solved by leveraging LLMs at 70–90% Precision/F1 with just good prompt engineering techniques, as well as adaptive in-context-learning (ICL) examples. What happens when you […]
