Graph analysis AI model achieves training up to 95 times faster on a single GPU
0

Alongside text-based large language models (LLMs), including ChatGPT in industrial fields, GNN (Graph Neural Network)-based graph AI models that analyze unstructured data such as financial transactions, stocks, social media, and patient records in graph form are widely used. However, there is a limitation, in that full graph learning—training the entire graph at once—requires massive memory and GPU servers.Alongside text-based large language models (LLMs), including ChatGPT in industrial fields, GNN (Graph Neural Network)-based graph AI models that analyze unstructured data such as financial transactions, stocks, social media, and patient records in graph form are widely used.

Two-phase model incorporates interactions with air to facilitate realistic simulation of fluidson August 15, 2025 at 2:50 am

Storm surges or collapsing dams—authentic simulations of water flows are not only important for special effects in disaster movies, but could also help to protect coastal regions. For more realistic simulations of fluid motions, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a new method that also takes into account the interaction with air. The approach is so efficient that calculations of complex wave motions can even be carried out with standard computers.Storm surges or collapsing dams—authentic simulations of water flows are not only important for special effects in disaster movies, but could also help to protect coastal regions.

Artificial intelligence is a lively topic of conversation in schools and workplaces, which could lead you to believe that only younger people use it. However, older Americans are also using AI. This raises the questions of what they’re doing with the technology and what they think of it.Artificial intelligence is a lively topic of conversation in schools and workplaces, which could lead you to believe that only younger people use it.
