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…
Safe rooms in Spain: What kind of data can researchers access?
There are a number of data that are very valuable, but which by their nature cannot be opened to the public at large. These are confidential data which are subject to third party rights that prevent them from being made available through open platforms, but which may be essential for research that p…
The agreement to provide statistical data to researchers, in the context of the Data Governance Regulation
The European Union has devised a fundamental strategy to ensure accessible and reusable data for research, innovation and entrepreneurship. Strategic decisions have been made both in a regulatory and in a material sense to build spaces for data sharing and to foster the emergence of intermediar…
Open data to drive energy efficiency and sustainability
The promotion of energy efficiency and sustainability is one of the priorities of the European Union and Spain, as reflected in the European Green Pact. The availability of open data related to energy production, distribution and consumption allows governments, businesses and citizens to access…
GRAPH QL. Your best ally for the creation of data products.
The era of digitalisation in which we find ourselves has filled our daily lives with data products or data-driven products. In this post we discover what they are and show you one of the key data technologies to design and build this kind of products: GraphQL.
Introduction
Let's start at the beginni…
UNE specifications as a complement to ISO standards for the governance, management and quality of Information Systems and Technologies
Standardisation is essential to improve efficiency and interoperability in governance and data management. The adoption of standards provides a common framework for organising, exchanging and interpreting data, facilitating collaboration and ensuring data consistency and quality. The ISO standards,…
The importance of Critical Minerals: Where to locate data of interest?
The energy transition is also a transition of raw materials. When we imagine a sustainable future, we conceive it based on a series of strategic sectors such as renewable energies or electric mobility. Similarly, we imagine a connected and digital future, where new innovations and business models re…
RAG - Retrieval Augmented Generation: The key that unlocks the door to precision language models
Teaching computers to understand how humans speak and write is a long-standing challenge in the field of artificial intelligence, known as natural language processing (NLP). However, in the last two years or so, we have seen the fall of this old stronghold with the advent of large language models (L…
Open data for AI: UNESCO recommendations on open data
The UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) is a United Nations agency whose purpose is to contribute to peace and security in the world through education, science, culture and communication. In order to achieve its objective, this organisation usually est…
Hot OSM: Collaborative mapping to coordinate emergency response
The humanitarian crisis following the earthquake in Haiti in 2010 was the starting point for a voluntary initiative to create maps to identify the level of damage and vulnerability by areas, and thus to coordinate emergency teams. Since then, the collaborative mapping project known as Hot OSM (OpenS…
