With the “Efficient Language Model for On-Device Deployment” (ELMOD-2.7B), Fraunhofer IIS is releasing a compact large language model (LLM) optimized for German, specifically designed for use in resource-constrained environments. Now available on open-source platform Hugging Face, it addresses key challenges such as infrastructure cost, cloud dependency, and data privacy.
Fraunhofer IIS offers a light-field data-set for free download
A light-field is defined by all light rays traversing a specific area. To record all light beams within a scene, researchers from the moving picture department of the Audio and Media Technologies division use a robot system that captures slightly different perspectives of a scene. Information such as the depth of the scene objects can be extracted. These depth maps are then used as a basis for various effects and post-editing steps like camera panning and refocusing – all with a...
