In mathematics, the Wasserstein or Kantorovich–Rubinstein metric or distance is a distance function defined between probability distributions on a given metric space M {\displaystyle M} M.
Intuitively, if each distribution is viewed as a unit amount of "dirt" piled on M {\displaystyle M} M, the metric is the minimum "cost" of turning one pile into the other, which is assumed to be the amount of dirt that needs to be moved times the mean distance it has to be moved. Because of this analogy, the metric is known in computer science as the earth mover's distance.
We introduce Vicuna-13B, an open-source chatbot trained by fine-tuning LLaMA on user-shared conversations collected from ShareGPT. Preliminary evaluation using GPT-4 as a judge shows Vicuna-13B achieves more than 90%* quality of OpenAI ChatGPT and Google Bard while outperforming other models like LLaMA and Stanford Alpaca in more than 90%* of cases. The cost of training Vicuna-13B is around $300. The code and weights, along with an online demo, are publicly available for non-commercial use.
Kedro versioned datasets can be mixed with incremental and partitioned datasets [ �� Unsure what kedro is? Check out this post. This was a question presented to
TLDR — Extractive question answering is an important task for providing a good user experience in many applications. The popular Retriever-Reader framework for QA using BERT can be difficult to scale…
Build document-based question-answering systems using LangChain, Pinecone, LLMs like GPT-4, and semantic search for precise, context-aware AI solutions.
In natural language understanding (NLU) tasks, there is a hierarchy of lenses through which we can extract meaning — from words to sentences to paragraphs to documents. At the document level, one of the most useful ways to understand text is by analyzing its topics. The process of learning, recognizing, and extracting these topics across a collection of documents is called topic modeling.
In this post, we will explore topic modeling through 4 of the most popular techniques today: LSA, pLSA, LDA, and the newer, deep learning-based lda2vec.

In this article, I am going to show you how to choose the number of principal components when using principal component analysis for dimensionality reduction.
In the first section, I am going to give you a short answer for those of you who are in a hurry and want to get something working. Later, I am going to provide a more extended explanation for those of you who are interested in understanding PCA.
Facebook Research open sourced a great project recently – fastText, a fast (no surprise) and effective method to learn word representations and perform text classification. I was curious about comparing these embeddings to other commonly used embeddings, so word2vec seemed like the obvious choice, especially considering fastText embeddings are an extension of word2vec.
The main aim of SenticNet is to make the conceptual and affective information conveyed by natural language (meant for human consumption) more easily-accessible to machines.
You want to discern how many clusters we have (or, if you prefer, how many gaussians components generated the data), and you don’t have information about the “ground truth”. A real case, where data do not have the nicety of behaving good as the simulated ones.
Definition of NLP coherence scores, in particular intrinsic UMass measure and PMI.
Human judgment not being correlated to perplexity (or likelihood of unseen documents) is the motivation for more work trying to model the human judgment. This is by itself a hard task as human judgment is not clearly defined; for example, two experts can disagree on the usefulness of a topic.
One can classify the methods addressing this problem into two categories. \textit{Intrinsic} methods that do not use any external source or task from the dataset, whereas \textit{extrinsic} methods use the discovered topics for external tasks, such as information retrieval [Wei06], or use external statistics to evaluate topics.
