CM documentation

We plan to rewrite and simplify the CM documentation and tutorials based on user feedback - please stay tuned for more details.

Collective Mind (CM) is a lightweight, non-intrusive and technology-agnostic workflow automation framework being developed by the MLCommons Task Force on Automation and Reproducibility based on the feedback from the the community, MLCommons members and individual contributors.

The goal is to provide a common, simple and human-readable interface to help users encode their knowledge about how to build, run and customize diverse AI/ML apps, benchmarks and research projects across continuously changing models, datasets, software and hardware from different vendors in a unified and automated way.

You can find on-going development tasks here.
