Alana

Excited to announce that the Embodied AI team at Alana developed AlanaVLM, a new foundation model for egocentric video understanding. Best open-weight model which rivals GPT-4V on spatial reasoning questions in OpenEQA (by Meta AI). It outperforms Claude 3 and Gemini Pro Vision 1.0 on the OpenEQA benchmark. https://lnkd.in/dMrRUZUb #AI #NLProc

Exciting news! We are now working with University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust to help clinicians quickly access and search the latest medical guidelines. Our conversational AI will provide accurate, sourced answers, integrated seamlessly. Faster, smarter medical support is coming! #HealthTech #AI #NHS #Innovation

What happens when you put together experts in NLP, data science, legal, ethical, interoperability, and HCI matters with clinical experts and the RES-Q Registry of Stroke Care Quality for three days in Aalborg? Lots of ideas and discussions that include all relevant perspectives at this RES-Q+ EU meeting. We'll harness natural language processing and interoperability to further the European Health Data Space and activate the quality in stroke care. Great progress! #res-q-plus-stroke-care
