Efficient Embedding Table Storage and Lookup - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240211458 titled 'Efficient Embedding Table Storage and Lookup

The present disclosure introduces systems, methods, and computer program products for efficient embedding table storage and lookup in machine-learning models. A computer-implemented method involves obtaining an embedding table with multiple embeddings associated with corresponding indexes, compressing each embedding individually for independent decompression, packing the compressed embeddings with a machine-learning model, receiving an input to locate an embedding, determining a lookup value based on the input, searching indexes of the embedding table, locating the embedding based on the lookup value, and decompressing the located embedding independently.

  • Embedding table storage and lookup optimization in machine-learning models
