Using the matrix to help Meta gear up

Just 12-months after it was created, in December 2004, 1-million people were active on Facebook. As of December 2021 it had an average 1.93 billion daily active users. EPFL is in a unique collaboration with its parent company Meta around distributed deep learning research. For a user base of this size, large-scale automated-systems must be utilized to understand user experience in order to ensure accuracy and success. EPFL's Machine Learning and Optimization Laboratory (MLO), led by Professor Martin Jaggi , is in active collaboration with Meta Platforms, Inc. Facebook's parent company, to solve this unique challenge. With funding from EPFL's EcoCloud Research Center , MLO collaborates with Meta through internships at the company for MLO researchers and the use by Meta of a pioneering MLO invention: PowerSGD.
