Neural language models (LMs), particularly those based on transformer architecture, have gained prominence due to their theoretical basis and their impact on various Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. These models are often evaluated within the context of binary language recognition, but this approach may create a disconnect between a language model as a distribution over…
The practice of biomedical research extensively depends on the accurate identification and classification of specialized terms from a vast array of textual data. This process, termed Named Entity Recognition (NER), is crucial for organizing and utilizing information found within medical literature. The proficient extraction of these entities from texts assists researchers and healthcare professionals in…
Coding execution is a crucial skill for developers and is often a struggle for existing large language models in AI software development. A team from Google DeepMind, Yale University, and the University of Illinois has proposed a novel approach to enhancing the ability of these models to reason about code execution. The method, called "Naturalized…
Web automation technologies play a pivotal role in enhancing efficiency and scalability across various digital operations by automating complex tasks that usually require human attention. However, the effectiveness of traditional web automation tools, largely based on static rules or wrapper software, is compromised in today's rapidly evolving and unpredictable web environments, resulting in inefficient web…
Machine learning (ML) is a rapidly growing field which has led to the emergence of a variety of training platforms, each tailored to cater to different requirements and restrictions.
