Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing, particularly with the creation of large language models (LLMs) with over 70 billion parameters. While these models are crucial for tasks such as translation and content creation, their full potential can only be realized using Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), a technique that currently faces significant challenges due…
Federated learning is an ML approach that decentralizes the AI training process, offering enhanced privacy and security. This approach keeps data localized on various devices which then compute and share model updates, while a central server collects these updates to enhance the overall model. This differs from traditional AI methods which amass data from multiple…
Prometheus-Eval is an innovative repository that offers tools for training, evaluating, and using Natural Language Processing (NLP) models. Developed by researchers from several institutes including the KAIST AI, MIT, and the University of Illinois Chicago, the tool is particularly adept at evaluating other language models. Using the Prometheus-eval Python package, users can effectively evaluate instruction-response…
Hugging Face has released LeRobot, an open-source machine learning model developed specifically for use in practical robotics. LeRobot is aimed at increasing the usability and accessibility of robots across a wide range of users and is based on the PyTorch platform. It is designed to merge advanced methods with practical applications in real-world settings, with…
The privacy of users participating in online communities is an imperative issue. Websites like Reddit allow users to post under pseudonyms to maintain anonymity; however, anonymity can lead to abusive behavior. In some instances, pseudonyms may not entirely assure privacy as a user's writing style can disclose their identity. These identifiable elements within a text,…
A team of researchers has developed a new method for improving tensor contraction paths (CPs), which are used to solve problems across numerous areas of research, including machine learning, graph problems, quantum circuits, and model counting. Their technique improves upon the standard greedy algorithm (SGA), incorporating an enhanced cost function that covers a larger range…
Reinforcement learning (RL) is a method of machine learning where agents are trained to make decisions by interacting with their environment. This interaction involves taking action and receiving feedback via rewards or penalties. RL has been crucial in developing complex technologies such as advanced robotics, autonomous vehicles, and strategic game-playing mechanisms and has been instrumental…
Python programming, with its vast number of libraries, is a flexible and powerful tool for programmers. However, a gap in the Python ecosystem has been identified: the lack of no-code studios for developing web front-ends. A handful of low-code tools have been available, such as Streamlit, Taipy, and Gradio, but none have fully automated this…
Generative AI models such as Large Language Models (LLMs) have proliferated over various industries, advancing the future of programming. Historically, the field of programming has been primarily governed by symbolic coding that unites traditional symbolic code and neural networks to solve specific tasks. Symbolic programming's backlash, however is that it often requires developers to manually…
