Inference Pipeline
An inference pipeline consists of the automated steps involved in using a trained model to make predictions on new data.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
An Inference Pipeline processes new input data through a deployed machine learning model to generate predictions or classifications, often including pre-processing steps and post-processing logic before returning results.
BACKGROUND
Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Basic Technology Research Co., Ltd., doing business as DeepSeek, is a Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) company that develops large language models (LLMs). Based in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, DeepSeek is owned and funded by High-Flyer, a Chinese hedge fund. DeepSeek was founded in July 2023 by Liang Wenfeng, the co-founder of High-Flyer, who also serves as the CEO for both of the companies. The company launched an eponymous chatbot alongside its DeepSeek-R1 model in January 2025.
