Data Development

ScienceTalks with Saam Motamedi We at Snorkel AI have received many requests from data scientists and machine learning engineers who aspire to be founders, where do they start and how should they get started on their entrepreneurial journey? We genuinely believe that data scientists and machine learning engineers will build the next generation of mega-enterprises. Over the summer, we’ve recorded

Main takeaways from The Future of Data-Centric AI Event We recently hosted The Future of Data-Centric AI, where academia, research, and industry experts and practitioners came together to discuss the shift from model-centric AI development to data-centric AI and what lies ahead. This post gives you a quick overview of the event and top takeaways from over eight hours of

Frontend Development Best Practices for Working With Lots of Data From Snorkel AI Engineering As a frontend engineer, it’s often easy to run into limitations when scaling large applications. At Snorkel AI, we often run into times where our users work with data that scales into the gigabytes when using Snorkel Flow. We have built Snorkel Flow around two core

Diving Into SliceLine – Machine Learning Whiteboard (MLW) Open-source Series Earlier this year, we started our machine learning whiteboard (MLW) series, an open-invite space to brainstorm ideas and discuss the latest papers, techniques, and workflows in the AI space. We emphasize an informal and open environment to everyone interested in learning about machine learning.In this episode, Kaushik Shivakumar dives into

Join the live discussion. Learn how to unlock data-centric AI and make AI development practical in your organization Working with vast unstructured and unlabeled data is one of the bottlenecks in the machine learning lifecycle. Machine learning models can only get as reliable and accurate as the data being fed to them. With a data-centric approach 1, your data science

We started the Snorkel project at the Stanford AI lab in 2015 around two core hypotheses:

In this episode of Science Talks, Snorkel AI’s Braden Hancock chats with Jason Fries – a research scientist at Stanford University’s Biomedical Informatics Research lab and Snorkel Research, and one of the first contributors to the Snorkel open-source library. We discuss Jason’s path into machine learning, empowering doctors and scientists with weak supervision, and utilizing organizational resources in biomedical applications of Snorkel. This episode is part

In this episode of Science Talks, Frederic Sala – an assistant professor of Computer Science at the University of Wisconsin Madison and a research scientist at Snorkel discusses his path into machine learning, the central thesis that ties together his multidisciplinary research, his thoughts on the future of weak supervision, as well as his decision to go into academia.

Impractical ML assumptions are made every day in research, which limit its adoption. In the real world, these assumptions do not hold up. Learn more about how to avoid making these assumptions about AI application development.

In this episode of Science Talks, Explosion AI’s Ines Montani sat down with Snorkel AI’s Braden Hancock to discuss her path into machine learning, key design decisions behind the popular spaCy library for industrial-strength NLP, the importance of bringing together different stakeholders in the ML development process, and more.This episode is part of the #ScienceTalks video series hosted by the Snorkel AI team.

Over the past year, we’ve worked hard to deliver Snorkel Flow, the first AI platform to provide all the power of machine learning without the pains of hand-labeling. Snorkel Flow lets you label data programmatically, train models flexibly, improve performance iteratively, and deploy AI applications quickly. We are incredibly proud of the value that our customers, including two of the

In this episode of Science Talks, Sebastian Ruder, Research Scientist at DeepMind, shares his thoughts on making AI practical with Snorkel AI’s Braden Hancock. This conversation covers progress made in the NLP domain with emerging research, new benchmarks like SuperGLUE, rich repositories and news sources that keep you in the loop and on top of what’s new in NLP, and more.

Takeaways from MLSys Seminars with Chip HuyenIn November, I had the opportunity to come back to Stanford to participate in MLSys Seminars, a series about Machine Learning Systems. It was great to see the growing interest of the academic community in building practical AI applications. Here is a recording of the talk.The talk was originally about the principles of good

There’s a lot of excitement about the potential for AI to improve healthcare. This is driven by compelling advances across a wide range of applications including drug discovery, radiology, pathology, electronic medical record (EMR) intelligence, clinical trials, and more. There are also many challenges for development and deployment of AI for healthcare.

Today I’m excited to announce Snorkel AI’s launch out of stealth! Snorkel AI, which spun out of the Stanford AI Lab in 2019, was founded on two simple premises: first, that the labeled training data machine learning models learn from is increasingly what determines the success or failure of AI applications. And second, that we can do much better than labeling this
