This gap represents a significant opportunity for improvement and cost…
Large language and vision models (LLVMs) face a critical challenge in balancing performance improvements with computational efficiency. As models grow in size, reaching up to 80B parameters, they deliver impressive results but require massive hardware resources for training and inference. This issue becomes even more pressing for real-time applications, such as augmented reality (AR), where…

Managing multiple lease agreements in the real estate world can be overwhelming. These documents are often lengthy—sometimes running over 100 pages—making it challenging to grasp the key points quickly. Not just that, they are filled with legal jargon and clauses requiring specialised knowledge, making manual data extraction time-consuming, error-prone and generally inefficient. That’s where lease…
Introduction In the world of AI, where data drives decisions, choosing the right tools can make or break your project. For Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems more commonly known as RAG systems, PDFs are a goldmine of information—if you can unlock their contents. But PDFs are tricky; they’re often packed with complex layouts, embedded images, and hard-to-extract…
