SAP to give on-prem customers three-year reprieve — with a catch
The clock is ticking for many SAP customers. The standard maintenance for SAP ERP and Business Suite is set to expire at the end of 2027. After that, SAP user companies would have the option to purchase the more expensive extended maintenance for an additional three years. All told then, migration to S/4HANA would need…

HAC++: Revolutionizing 3D Gaussian Splatting Through Advanced Compression Techniques
Novel view synthesis has witnessed significant advancements recently, with Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) pioneering 3D representation techniques through neural rendering. While NeRF introduced innovative methods for reconstructing scenes by accumulating RGB values along sampling rays using multilayer perceptrons (MLPs), it encountered substantial computational challenges. The extensive ray point sampling and large neural network volumes created…

Qwen AI Releases Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct-1M and Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct-1M: Allowing Deployment with Context Length up to 1M Tokens
The advancements in large language models (LLMs) have significantly enhanced natural language processing (NLP), enabling capabilities like contextual understanding, code generation, and reasoning. However, a key limitation persists: the restricted context window size. Most LLMs can only process a fixed amount of text, typically up to 128K tokens, which limits their ability to handle tasks…

Autonomy-of-Experts (AoE): A Router-Free Paradigm for Efficient and Adaptive Mixture-of-Experts Models
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models utilize a router to allocate tokens to specific expert modules, activating only a subset of parameters, often leading to superior efficiency and performance compared to dense models. In these models, a large feed-forward network is divided into smaller expert networks, with the router—typically an MLP classifier—determining which expert processes each input. However,…
