Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for batching inputs to machine learning models. One of the methods includes receiving a stream of requests, each request identifying a respective input for processing by a first machine learning model; adding the respective input from each request to a first queue of inputs for processing by the first machine learning model; determining, at a first time, that a count of inputs in the first queue as of the first time equals or exceeds a maximum batch size and, in response: generating a first batched input from the inputs in the queue as of the first time so that a count of inputs in the first batched input equals the maximum batch size, and providing the first batched input for processing by the first machine learning model.
