Models
Generally, AI models are a core component of tasks. They are programs developed by data scientists designed to analyse datasets to find patterns and make predictions. Models are leveraged to complete tasks related to computer vision, natural language processing, and applied in a range of other AI domains.
Inspecting models
Just like tasks, model code can also be inspected if you have permission to access the model. Model owners can mark models as private or public.

Tasks with interchangeable models
In Bitfount, tasks define the model that will run within a project. Some tasks offer flexibility, allowing you to choose from a selection of open-source models.
If a task includes a model that requires usage approval, it will be marked as Pending Approval.
The model owner must approve its use before you can run the task.

Creating a model
The platform supports the integration of user-provided models which once uploaded can be templated into tasks to either train, run evaluation, or run inference. If you are a data scientist, please see the guide, or visit our SDK Tutorials for more information on implementation.
Uploading your model
Already have a model you want to use in a task? You can upload it to Bitfount using the Hub or Desktop App. See our guide for more information.
