Dynamic integration of machine-learning modules

Last updated:

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes a system building a first machine-learning module and one or more secondary machine-learning modules for operating with an application. The first and second modules may be configured to utilize, in operation, particular types of processing hardware, respectively. The system may receive from a client device a request to download the application, and in response send to the device the application with the first module. The system may then receive another request to download a selected one of the secondary modules, which may be selected based on a determination by the application running on the device that the associated type of processing hardware is available. In response, the system may send the selected module to the device. The application may be configured to selectively use the first module or the selected module to perform an operation.
