MIT-birthed startup Liquid AI has introduced STAR (Synthesis of Tailored Architectures), an innovative framework designed to automate the generation and optimization of AI model architectures.
The STAR framework uses evolutionary algorithms and a numerical encoding system to balance quality and efficiency in deep learning models.
In tests, STAR-evolved architectures outperformed highly-optimized Transformer++ and hybrid models in autoregressive language modeling.
Liquid AI envisions STAR being used to tackle challenges in domains where the trade-off between quality and computational efficiency is critical.
