Fixstars has implemented two new proprietary algorithms—Heuristic Search and Staged BlackBox Search—specifically designed for hyperparameter exploration using domain knowledge of Megatron Core parallelization strategies. Benchmarks conducted using Qwen3-Omni-30B supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on an NVIDIA A100 x 16 GPU environment yielded the following results: Heuristic Search: Achieved 1.52x faster training (118.6 TFLOP/s/GPU) in just 2 hours—reaching 1.7x speedup 150x faster than previous methods. Staged BlackBox Search: Delivered 1.79x speedup (140.0 TFLOP/s/GPU) in 18 hours, finding optimal parameters 16x faster than conventional methods. Users can now choose the best approach for their needs: Heuristic Search for rapid practical speedups or Staged BlackBox Search for maximum performance. The latest version introduces a no-code feature, allowing users to execute tuning via command-line operations without writing Python scripts. This enables engineers without specialized optimization backgrounds to leverage high-precision hyperparameter tuning immediately. Fixstars AIBooster is a solution designed to optimize the efficiency of computational resources and unlock peak performance for AI workloads, including AI training and inference. It primarily offers the following three pillars: 1) Performance Observability (PO): Continuously visualizes hardware (GPU) and software execution profiles to identify performance fluctuations and bottlenecks. 2) Performance Intelligence (PI): Drives continuous improvement through bottleneck analysis, automated acceleration, AI agent-driven suggestions, and expert reviews. 3) Optimized AI Infrastructure: Provides tailored infrastructure—whether public, private cloud, or on-premises—leveraging data-driven insights from PO and PI.Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Mar 13Now 22% overvaluedOver the last 90 days, the stock has fallen 7.8% to JP¥1,481.

The latest version of AIBooster introduces enhanced flexibility and deeper diagnostic capabilities: advanced diagnostic reports for AcuiRT -- AIBooster's integrated framework for inference-optimized AI model conversion -- and customizable performance observability with user-defined metrics and tags. These updates empower engineers to minimize observation overhead while accelerating the development cycle through rapid identification and refactoring of model conversion bottlenecks. Fixstars remains committed to providing the tools necessary for high-performance, cost-effective AI operations, ensuring that customers can achieve seamless and efficient AI deployment across any environment. AcuiRT now features significantly strengthened diagnostic capabilities. Engineers can now resolve deployment issues via CLI or detailed reports featuring: Conversion Result Visualization: Provides a detailed breakdown of conversion success and failure, including layer-by-layer success rates, specific error messages for failed layers, and inference accuracy comparisons for detecting potential degradation. Performance Profiling: Analyzes post-conversion characteristics, including overall inference latency and a layer-by-layer breakdown of processing time to pinpoint bottlenecks. Customizable Performance Observability Tailored to User Environments: The performance observability feature in AIBooster provides a macro view of performance trends across clusters while monitoring hardware efficiency at the node and device levels. In this release, users can now easily customize the following parameters to achieve a more flexible observation experience: Metric Collection Intervals: Users can adjust the granularity of data collection to minimize overhead. For long-term trend analysis, increasing the interval reduces resource consumption, making it easier to deploy in diverse environments. User-Defined Tags for Traces: These tags allow users to classify workloads based on their own criteria, such as model type, execution settings, or specific datasets. This enables deeper performance analysis from unique perspectives. Use Case: Faster and More Reliable Model Conversion for NVIDIA GPUs A 2D object detection model (Detection Transformer: DETR) was converted from a trained PyTorch model to an NVIDIA GPU-optimized format (TensorRT), using AcuiRT. In the initial conversion attempt, only 16% of the model's layers were successfully converted, and because the model was only partially converted, inference performance was worse than before conversion. By leveraging a new diagnostic report feature to identify the failed layers and underlying errors, the model was refactored accordingly. As a result, 100% layer conversion was achieved with just four hours of refactoring, and the converted model demonstrated approximately a 1.25x improvement in inference speed.Board Change • Jan 02High number of new directorsThere are 5 new directors who have joined the board in the last 3 years.

공시 • Apr 11Fixstars Corporation Announces Major Upgrade To Fixstars AIBoosterFixstars Corporation announced a major upgrade to Fixstars AIBooster, significantly enhancing its automated hyperparameter optimization. In recent benchmark tests evaluating AI training performance, Fixstars compared three scenarios: unoptimized, optimized using the previous version, and optimized using the latest version. The results demonstrated that the latest AIBooster identifies superior hyperparameters in approximately 1/16th the time required by previous versions, further accelerating processing speeds and operational efficiency. In the distributed training of Large Language Models (LLMs), numerous parameters—such as tensor parallelism, pipeline parallelism, and micro-batch size—dictate training efficiency. Setting optimal hyperparameters can significantly increase AI training speeds. Traditionally, searching for the ideal combination of hyperparameters required deep expertise and extensive trial and error, placing a heavy burden on engineers. Fixstars AIBooster automates this search process, allowing engineers to focus on higher-value development tasks. By improving AI training efficiency, organizations can achieve the following: Reduced AI Investment Costs: Maximize the utilization of limited GPU assets. Efficient operation reduces hardware procurement costs and power consumption. Enhanced Accuracy via Rapid Iteration: Faster training cycles allow for more frequent iterations, resulting in higher-precision AI models and improving both the speed and quality of AI development. Fixstars has implemented two new proprietary algorithms—Heuristic Search and Staged BlackBox Search—specifically designed for hyperparameter exploration using domain knowledge of Megatron Core parallelization strategies. Benchmarks conducted using Qwen3-Omni-30B supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on an NVIDIA A100 x 16 GPU environment yielded the following results: Heuristic Search: Achieved 1.52x faster training (118.6 TFLOP/s/GPU) in just 2 hours—reaching 1.7x speedup 150x faster than previous methods. Staged BlackBox Search: Delivered 1.79x speedup (140.0 TFLOP/s/GPU) in 18 hours, finding optimal parameters 16x faster than conventional methods. Users can now choose the best approach for their needs: Heuristic Search for rapid practical speedups or Staged BlackBox Search for maximum performance. The latest version introduces a no-code feature, allowing users to execute tuning via command-line operations without writing Python scripts. This enables engineers without specialized optimization backgrounds to leverage high-precision hyperparameter tuning immediately. Fixstars AIBooster is a solution designed to optimize the efficiency of computational resources and unlock peak performance for AI workloads, including AI training and inference. It primarily offers the following three pillars: 1) Performance Observability (PO): Continuously visualizes hardware (GPU) and software execution profiles to identify performance fluctuations and bottlenecks. 2) Performance Intelligence (PI): Drives continuous improvement through bottleneck analysis, automated acceleration, AI agent-driven suggestions, and expert reviews. 3) Optimized AI Infrastructure: Provides tailored infrastructure—whether public, private cloud, or on-premises—leveraging data-driven insights from PO and PI.

공시 • Jan 08Fixstars Corporation Launches Enhanced Aibooster with Advanced Ai Diagnostics and Customizable ObservabilityFixstars Corporation announced the release of the latest version of its AI processing acceleration platform, "Fixstars AIBooster". The latest version of AIBooster introduces enhanced flexibility and deeper diagnostic capabilities: advanced diagnostic reports for AcuiRT -- AIBooster's integrated framework for inference-optimized AI model conversion -- and customizable performance observability with user-defined metrics and tags. These updates empower engineers to minimize observation overhead while accelerating the development cycle through rapid identification and refactoring of model conversion bottlenecks. Fixstars remains committed to providing the tools necessary for high-performance, cost-effective AI operations, ensuring that customers can achieve seamless and efficient AI deployment across any environment. AcuiRT now features significantly strengthened diagnostic capabilities. Engineers can now resolve deployment issues via CLI or detailed reports featuring: Conversion Result Visualization: Provides a detailed breakdown of conversion success and failure, including layer-by-layer success rates, specific error messages for failed layers, and inference accuracy comparisons for detecting potential degradation. Performance Profiling: Analyzes post-conversion characteristics, including overall inference latency and a layer-by-layer breakdown of processing time to pinpoint bottlenecks. Customizable Performance Observability Tailored to User Environments: The performance observability feature in AIBooster provides a macro view of performance trends across clusters while monitoring hardware efficiency at the node and device levels. In this release, users can now easily customize the following parameters to achieve a more flexible observation experience: Metric Collection Intervals: Users can adjust the granularity of data collection to minimize overhead. For long-term trend analysis, increasing the interval reduces resource consumption, making it easier to deploy in diverse environments. User-Defined Tags for Traces: These tags allow users to classify workloads based on their own criteria, such as model type, execution settings, or specific datasets. This enables deeper performance analysis from unique perspectives. Use Case: Faster and More Reliable Model Conversion for NVIDIA GPUs A 2D object detection model (Detection Transformer: DETR) was converted from a trained PyTorch model to an NVIDIA GPU-optimized format (TensorRT), using AcuiRT. In the initial conversion attempt, only 16% of the model's layers were successfully converted, and because the model was only partially converted, inference performance was worse than before conversion. By leveraging a new diagnostic report feature to identify the failed layers and underlying errors, the model was refactored accordingly. As a result, 100% layer conversion was achieved with just four hours of refactoring, and the converted model demonstrated approximately a 1.25x improvement in inference speed.

공시 • Oct 10Fixstars Corporation Adds Autonomous Optimization Feature for Edge AI Inference to Its AI Acceleration Platform "AIBooster"Fixstars Corporation announced the release of the latest version of its AI processing acceleration platform, "Fixstars AIBooster" (hereinafter "AIBooster"), with significantly expanded performance and features. The latest version of AIBooster features two new functionalities: autonomous optimization via model compression for Edge AI inference, and autonomous hyperparameter optimization for AI training. Furthermore, a new plan offering the performance observation feature as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution has been introduced to significantly reduce the effort required for initial deployment and allow immediate use. Fixstars will continue to support customers in making their AI development cycles more efficient and faster, enabling AI utilization across various devices. New Features of the latest AIBooster: Autonomous Optimization for Edge AI Inference: When performing AI inference on local devices such as in-vehicle systems or mobile devices (Edge AI inference), limited computing and memory resources make it difficult to run AI models as is. This previously required extensive trial and error to tune models for each device. AIBooster's new autonomous optimization feature solves this by automatically converting AI models for edge devices while maintaining performance. The feature targets models built with the common PyTorch framework and converts them into formats optimized for each device using a model conversion backend. The initial release supports NVIDIA TensorRT, optimizing inference in NVIDIA GPU environments. By automating conversion and applying techniques such as quantization and kernel fusion, it dramatically boosts inference speed while reducing development time. Enhanced Hyperparameter Autonomous Optimization for AI Training: In AI model training, hyperparameters such as batch size and learning rate greatly affect model accuracy and efficiency, but their optimization has traditionally required extensive trial and error. The new autonomous hyperparameter optimization feature integrates tuning across the model, resources, and hardware to maximize overall training performance. Key features include: Integrated Optimization: Balances model accuracy and training efficiency while maximizing resource utilization. Hardware Control: Automatically adjusts CPU core and GPU usage schedules. Distributed Training Support: Operates efficiently in large-scale environments such as Slurm and Kubernetes. The system outputs trial data, initial and optimized settings, and improvement rates for review. By visualizing and automating the optimization process, this feature significantly enhances AI training efficiency and knowledge acquisition. SaaS-based Performance Observation Function: The latest AIBooster introduces a SaaS-based performance observation feature that removes setup complexity and allows users to start immediately. In the SaaS version, performance data from GPU servers is stored in the cloud and visualized in real time on a unified dashboard. It supports multi-cloud and distributed environments, enabling system-, node-, and job-level monitoring on one screen. Fixstars ensures SaaS security to protect customers' AI data, while on-premise installation remains available for flexible deployment.
