This research aims to explore the impact of Machine Learning (ML) on the evolution and efficacy of Recommendation Systems (RS), particularly in the context of their growing significance in commercial business environments. Methodologically,…
Machine Learning (ML)-enabled systems challenge traditional Requirements Engineering (RE) and agile management due to data dependence, experimentation, and uncertain model behavior. Existing RE and agile practices remain poorly integrated…
Dramatic progress has been witnessed in basic vision tasks involving low-level perception, such as object recognition, detection, and tracking. Unfortunately, there is still an enormous performance gap between artificial vision systems and…
Recent advances in query optimization have shifted from traditional rule-based and cost-based techniques towards machine learning-driven approaches. Among these, reinforcement learning (RL) has attracted significant attention due to its…
Machine learning inference is increasingly being executed locally on mobile and embedded platforms, due to the clear advantages in latency, privacy and connectivity. In this paper, we present approaches for online resource management in…
Machine-learning (ML) hardware and software system demand is burgeoning. Driven by ML applications, the number of different ML inference systems has exploded. Over 100 organizations are building ML inference chips, and the systems that…
Multi-modal analytical processing has the potential to transform applications in e-commerce, healthcare, entertainment, and beyond. However, real-world adoption remains elusive due to the limited ability of traditional relational query…
Many ML applications and products train on medium amounts of input data but get bottlenecked in real-time inference. When implementing ML systems, conventional wisdom favors segregating ML code into services queried by product code via…
HRDBMS is a novel distributed relational database that uses a hybrid model combining the best of traditional distributed relational databases and Big Data analytics platforms such as Hive. This allows HRDBMS to leverage years worth of…
Without any doubt, the relational paradigm has been a huge success. At the same time, we believe that the time is ripe to rethink how database systems could look like if we designed them from scratch. Would we really end up with the same…
In this study, we optimize SQL+ML queries on top of OpenMLDB, an open-source database that seamlessly integrates offline and online feature computations. The work used feature-rich synthetic dataset experiments in Docker, which acted like…
Database queries traditionally operate under the closed-world assumption, providing no answers to questions that require information beyond the data stored in the database. Hybrid querying using SQL offers an alternative by integrating…
The scaling of inference computation has unlocked the potential of long-context large language models (LLMs) across diverse settings. For knowledge-intensive tasks, the increased compute is often allocated to incorporate more external…
Integrating machine learning techniques into RDBMSs is an important task since there are many real applications that require modeling (e.g., business intelligence, strategic analysis) as well as querying data in RDBMSs. In this paper, we…
This paper is an extended version of a report from a student-developed study to compare Microsoft SQL Server and PostgreSQL, two widely-used enterprise-class relational database management systems (RDBMSs). The study followed an…
Large language models (LLMs) excel in many natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, since LLMs can only incorporate new knowledge through training or supervised fine-tuning processes, they are unsuitable for applications that…
Large multimodal models (LMMs) typically employ an encoding module to transform multimodal data inputs into embeddings, which are then fed to language models for further processing. However, efficiently serving LMMs remains highly…
In modern business processes, the amount of data collected has increased substantially in recent years. Because this data can potentially yield valuable insights, automated knowledge extraction based on process mining has been proposed,…
Deep learning recommendation models have grown to the terabyte scale. Traditional serving schemes--that load entire models to a single server--are unable to support this scale. One approach to support this scale is with distributed serving,…
