Services

In addition to providing computing and storage resources, the AI Service Center offers support in the automation and optimization of machine learning pipelines, as well as in the selection and training of models.

The services offered by hessian.AISC are divided into three areas:

  • Cluster-related workshops that enable efficient utilization of the computing infrastructure,
  • project support to help you realize your projects successfully, effectively and within a reasonable timeframe, and
  • cooperative development projects to develop new solutions for real-life challenges together.

Each of these areas lowers the barriers to use artificial intelligence in your everyday life.

If you don’t find what you are looking for in the offerings listed below, please contact our experts to find or create a workshop or project that suits your needs.

Cluster workshops

Our cluster workshops help you make the best possible use of our existing infrastructure and to develop and train your models efficiently in our Machine Learning Development Environment. We introduce you to the existing interfaces and give you the opportunity to apply what you have learned directly in our testing environment.

OnBoarding and Using of HPC-Cluster

In this 30-minute workshop, you will get to know hessian.AI’s HPC Cluster and train a first example model on the cluster yourself. We start with an introduction to the general operation of the cluster, the access options, and the various interfaces. Then, each participant will transfer data to the cluster independently, modify a simple neural network, and then train it using several GPUs. We will be happy to address any specific application questions you may have.

Training of models with Tensorflow Keras

In this 30-minute workshop, you will get a broad overview of the structure and use of our cluster, familiarize yourself with the Keras interface of our HPC cluster, and train models of varying complexity using the Keras interface on the cluster. We will be happy to address any specific application questions you may have.

Training of models with PyTorch

In this 30-minute workshop, you will get a broad overview of the structure and use of our cluster, familiarize yourself with the PyTorch interface of our HPC cluster, and train models of varying complexity using the PyTorch interface on the cluster. We will be happy to address any specific application questions you may have.

Training models with DeepSpeed

In this 30-minute workshop, you will get a broad overview of the structure and use of our cluster, familiarize yourself with the DeepSpeed interface of our HPC cluster, and train models of varying complexity using the DeepSpeed interface on the cluster. We will be happy to address any specific application questions you may have.

Hyperparameter tuning

In this 30-minute workshop, you will get a broad overview of the structure and use of our cluster and learn about the possibilities for hyperparameter tuning on our cluster. As part of the workshop, you will carry out a simple hyperparameter training session yourself using an example model. We will be happy to address any specific application questions you may have.

Project support

When realizing AI projects independently for the first time, users often face various challenges and risk burning a lot of time and financial resources. As part of our project support, we offer you the opportunity to first validate your ideas in a cost- and time-efficient manner and then turn them into a usable application as a small project.

Proof of Concept Sprint (PoC-Sprint)

Sometimes, an idea sounds great on paper, but when it comes to practical implementation, suddenly challenges arise. A proof-of-concept (PoC) sprint is a quick and cost-effective way to find out whether a solution concept really works and to identify potential problems at an early stage. This not only helps to properly plan the actual project, but also ensures that the time and money invested are not wasted after all. Our PoC sprint is a safe starting point for the successful realization of your project.

Application workshop for models provided

As part of the AI Service Center’s research, a large number of efficient, applicable models are developed and made available. In this workshop, you will leverage the expertise of our service staff to optimize one of these models for your own use case and test it on our HPC computing infrastructure. The duration of this workshop depends on the extent to which optimizations are necessary.

Conceptualization and support in the realization of smaller projects

Building on your proof of concept, our experts will support you in the development, implementation, and training of your models. The scope of the project is tailored to your individual requirements so you can quickly put your idea into practice.

Cooperative development projects

The application and fine-tuning of existing models and the adaptation of existing solutions to specific situations cannot always take into account the complexity and potential of artificial intelligence. While advancing developments and exploring new architectures open up vast possibilities, they also require extensive knowledge and significant resources.

Our experts from the AI Service Center and the hessian.AI ecosystem offer cooperative support in implementing medium and large AI projects as well as in developing new state-of-the-art solutions together. To learn more, please contact us via our contact form or email us at .
