Hugging Face Integrations
Hugging Face rapidly became a very popular platform to build, share and collaborate on deep learning applications. We have worked on integrating the torch for R ecosystem with Hugging Face...continue reading.
Understanding LoRA with a minimal example
LoRA (Low Rank Adaptation) is a new technique for fine-tuning deep learning models that works by reducing the number of trainable parameters and enables efficient task switching. In this blog...continue reading.
What are Large Language Models? What are they not?
This is a high-level, introductory article about Large Language Models (LLMs), the core technology that enables the much-en-vogue chatbots as well as other Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications. It is...continue reading.
GPT-2 from scratch with torch
Implementing a language model from scratch is, arguably, the best way to develop an accurate idea of how its engine works. Here, we use torch to code GPT-2, the immediate...continue reading.

Implementing rotation equivariance: Group-equivariant CNN from scratch
We code up a simple group-equivariant convolutional neural network (GCNN) that is equivariant to rotation. The world may be upside down, but the network will know.continue reading.
Upside down, a cat’s still a cat: Evolving image recognition with Geometric Deep Learning
In this first in a series of posts on group-equivariant convolutional neural networks (GCNNs), meet the main actors — groups — and concepts (equivariance). With GCNNs, we finally revisit the...continue reading.
AO, NAO, ENSO: A wavelet analysis example
El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), and Arctic Oscillation (AO) are atmospheric phenomena of global impact that strongly affect people’s lives. ENSO, first and foremost, brings with it...continue reading.
Wavelet Transform – with torch
torch does not have built-in functionality to do wavelet analysis. But we can efficiently implement what we need, making use of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). This post is a...continue reading.
