Show HN: Eva AI-Relational Database System for Faster AI-Powered Applications
28 by jarulraj | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Hi friends, We are building EVA, an AI-Relational database system with first-class support for deep learning models. Our goal with EVA is to create a platform that supports AI-powered multi-modal database applications operating on structured (tables, feature vectors, etc.) and unstructured data (videos, podcasts, pdf, etc.) with deep learning models. EVA comes with a wide range of models for analyzing unstructured data, including models for object detection, OCR, text summarization, audio speech recognition, and more. The key feature of EVA is its AI-centric query optimizer. This optimizer is designed to speed up AI-powered applications using a collection of optimizations inspired by relational database systems. Two of the most important optimizations are: + Caching: EVA automatically reuses previous query results (e.g., inference results), eliminating redundant computation and saving you money on inference. + Predicate Reordering: EVA optimizes the order in which query predicates are evaluated (e.g., running faster, more selective deep learning models first), leading to faster queries. Besides saving money spent on inference, EVA also makes it easier to write SQL queries to set up multi-modal AI pipelines. With EVA, you can quickly integrate your AI models into the database system and seamlessly query structured and unstructured data. We are constantly working on improving EVA and would love to hear your feedback!

New top story on Hacker News: Tell HN: I think I found Toyota's battery

Tell HN: I think I found Toyota's battery 173 by scythe | 29 comments on Hacker News. Recently there was a thread about a "breakthrough" in battery technology at Toyota. https://ift.tt/nUtv4yY Toyota has been putting out PR puff pieces about their "solid-state" (solid-electrolyte) batteries for years, but this story was unique in that it had a quote from Keiji Kaita, who holds some high-level role at Toyota. Anyway, I didn't think much of it, because there was no paper referenced in the Guardian article, which seemed to be the original source. But while reading about something else, I came across the paper "A near dimensionally invariable high-capacity positive electrode material", published in Nature Materials last December: https://ift.tt/24ZXPy5 This paper, reporting a cathode that has very little (much less than normal) change in size or shape when charged and discharged, claims reversible storage with a solid electrolyte. It stands to reaso...

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Neucards – Privacy based digital contact card

Show HN: Neucards – Privacy based digital contact card 7 by bdominy | 1 comments on Hacker News. Neucards is an end-to-end encrypted contact information sharing and updating iOS app that protects your identity while letting you keep in touch with people. I started working on neucards as a side project more than ten years ago, and I decided three years ago to go full-time and try to build a community around it. There are two major problems that neucards addresses. First, most people end up with contact lists that are hopelessly out of date. Over time, people move, change jobs, or add social profiles and unless they tell you, chances are you could lose touch. Second, your contact information ends up in the wrong hands. There has been a huge increase in robocalls, unsolicited emails, data breaches, and online scams that is driven by accessing a person's contact info. Even worse, with AI now being able to imitate a person's voice or other mannerisms, knowledge about the connecti...
