” WekaIO Introduces Weka AI to Enable Accelerated Edge to Core to Cloud Data Pipelines WekaIO™ (Weka), a leader in high-performance and scalable file storage, and an NVIDIA Partner Network Solution Advisor, introduced Weka AI™, a transformative storage solution framework underpinned by the Weka File System (WekaFS™) that enables accelerated edge-to-core-to-cloud data pipelines.

Weka AI is a framework of customizable reference architectures (RAs) and software development kits (SDKs) with leading technology alliances like NVIDIA, Mellanox, and others in the Weka Innovation Network (WIN)™.

Weka AI enables chief data officers, data scientists and data engineers to accelerate genomics, medical imaging, the financial services industry (FSI), and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) deep learning (DL) pipelines.

In addition, Weka AI easily scales from entry to large integrated solutions provided through VARs and channel partners.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) data pipelines are inherently different from traditional file-based IO applications.

Each stage within AI data pipelines has distinct storage IO requirements: massive bandwidth for ingest and training; mixed read/write handling for extract, transform, load (ETL); ultra-low latency for inference; and a single namespace for entire data pipeline visibility.

Furthermore, AI at the edge is driving the need for edge-to-core-to-cloud data pipelines.

Hence, the ideal solution must meet all these varied requirements and deliver timely insights at scale.

Traditional solutions lack these capabilities and often fall short in meeting performance and shareability across personas and data mobility requirements.

Today’s industries demand solutions that overcome these limitations for AI data pipelines.

The solutions must provide data management that delivers operational agility, governance, and actionable intelligence by breaking silos.

Weka AI is architected to deliver production-ready solutions and accelerate DataOps by solving the storage challenges common with IO-intensive workloads such as AI.

It helps accelerate the AI data pipeline, delivering more than 73 GB/sec of bandwidth to a single GPU client.

” How to Train Your Algo: Software Development Firm Art+Logic Launches Vibrary, an Open-Source AI Tool for Audio Pros In collaboration with Dr.

Scott Hawley, Physics Professor at Belmont University, Art+Logic is unveiling Vibrary, the first project to come out of its incubator lab.

Vibrary uses machine learning to analyze short samples and loops.

Its design makes it easy for producers, composers, and musicians to train their own models and classify sounds by sound, genre, feel or other characteristics, defined by users’ needs and preferences.

The open-source AI tool features a helpful interface to make training algorithms accessible to anyone with a computer, internet connection, and a massive sound library.

“Much of the technology involved is straightforward, but what is unique about us is that we built a user-friendly utility that lets people train their own AI,” explains Hawley.

Before Art+Logic embraced the project for its incubator initiative, Hawley had been playing around with algorithms and audio files for years, a hobby, of sorts, of the busy physics professor and musician.

He dug into the work of top researchers using spectrograms, the visual representations of sound, as objects for algorithmic classification.

It enabled him to find and tag sounds in a massive, confusingly-labelled sample and patch library, something producers and composers often struggle with.

He dubbed his experiments Panotti, named for the big-eared people of medieval legend, and eventually he took his prototypes to Nashville’s ASPIRE Research Co-op, a gathering dedicated to audio innovation.

He and his fellow researchers worked to improve Panotti.

There was a problem, however.

Hawley’s model gave good results, but it was a pain to set up and train.

Hawley imagined a better way, one accessible to audio pros, and Art+Logic helped him find it, creating a simple, attractive interface.

This interface ensures Vibrary leaps past a major sticking point for many specialized machine learning projects: Domain experts aren’t data scientists, and data scientists may have no clue how domain experts use or perceive the data.

Vibrary empowers audio pros to build their own AI without a data-science background.

“Scott’s interface was built in Python, but it wasn’t something the overwhelming majority of users would have been able to configure,” says Jason Bagley, senior software developer at Art+Logic, himself an electronic musician.

“We wanted something someone could download and start running immediately.

We simplified things, automating a lot of processes.

I came up with a user flowchart for training and categorization.

My colleague Daisey Traynham turned the flowchart into an interface that is simple to use, hiding as much of the complexity as possible.
