Hey team, Aim 3.8 is now available!

We are on a mission to democratize AI dev tools. Thanks to the awesome Aim community for the help and contributions.

Here is what’s new:

  • Color scale of numeric values
  • DVC integration
  • Extensible HuggingFace and XGBoost callbacks

Special thanks to osoblanco, ashutoshsaboo and mohamadelgaar for the help and feedback

Color scale of numeric values

Due to popular demand an Aim 2.x feature is back!

Now you can color-code the aggregated metric values on the Runs Explorer. The highest values will be in green and the lowest in Yellow. The color changes from yellow to green at the median.

We are surely going to iterate over this feature. Further feedbacks are welcome!

DVC integration

Now you can track the info about your DVC tracked files, datasets on Aim. With this we are iterating towards easy connection between Aim and DVC so you can connect your tracked artifacts with experiment tracking.

Share more feedback with us. How would you like to see this evolve?

The code looks as simple as this:

Extensible HuggingFace and XGBoost callbacks

When using Aim with your favorite frameworks, the metadata is logged through AimCallback which is limited as it allows only specific group of logged metrics per framework.

Now you can extend the AimCallback and log any other metadata made available by the framework. Detailed docs here.

Here is an example on how to extend the HuggingFace callback to track texts with Aim:
