AI tools for research and a new way to use language models
AI systems designed to assist us from the first dives to the final bibliography.
One of the missions of contemporary artificial intelligence is to help us find, sort and digest information, especially with the help of large language models. These systems have come at a time when we most need to mana…
Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI): how open data can help understand algorithms
The increasing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) systems in critical areas such as public administration, financial services or healthcare has brought the need for algorithmic transparency to the forefront. The complexity of AI models used to make decisions such as granting credit or making a…
Open source auto machine learning tools
The increasing complexity of machine learning models and the need to optimise their performance has been driving the development of AutoML (Automated Machine Learning) for years. This discipline seeks to automate key tasks in the model development lifecycle, such as algorithm selection, data process…
The role of open data in the evolution of SLM and LLM: efficiency vs. power
Language models are at the epicentre of the technological paradigm shift that has been taking place in generative artificial intelligence (AI) over the last two years. From the tools with which we interact in natural language to generate text, images or videos and which we use to create creativ…
SLM, LLM, RAG and Fine-tuning: Pillars of Modern Generative AI
In the fast-paced world of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), there are several concepts that have become fundamental to understanding and harnessing the potential of this technology. Today we focus on four: Small Language Models(SLM), Large Language Models(LLM), Retrieval Augmented Generation…
Re3gistry: facilitating the semantic interoperability of data
The INSPIRE (Infrastructure for Spatial Information in Europe) Directive sets out the general rules for the establishment of an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community based on the Infrastructures of the Member States. Adopted by the European Parliament a…
Vinalod: The tool to make open datasets more accessible
Public administration is working to ensure access to open data, in order to empowering citizens in their right to information. Aligned with this objective, the European open data portal (data.europa.eu) references a large volume of data on a variety of topics.
However, although the data belong to di…
Free tools to work on data quality issues
Ensuring data quality is an essential task for any open data initiative. Before publication, datasets need to be validated to check that they are free of errors, duplication, etc. In this way, their potential for re-use will grow.
Data quality is conditioned by many aspects. In this sense, the Aport…
API Friendliness Checker. A much needed tool in the age of data products.
Many people don't know, but we are surrounded by APIs. APIs are the mechanism by which services communicate on the Internet. APIs are what make it possible for us to log into our email or make a purchase online.
API stands for Application Programming Interface, which for most Internet users means no…
How you could improve the experience of looking for a home with more open data
In the last decade, the number of data-based services, open or proprietary, that we have at our disposal has grown in a way that few could have imagined. Maps and satellite photos from almost any corner of the planet, photographs of our streets, weather station data or traffic or public transport da…
