Hey All, I think many of us can agree that defining the hardware we want to use right next to the piece of code we are running is objectively a much better developer experience. I have always loved the idea of lowering the barrier when it comes to running code in the cloud. As more cloud abstractions hit the market, I was honestly really surprised by...

Title. Is there a way to determine the degree of sphericity or hyperbolicity of the embeddings a feature extractor learns for a set of examples it has been trained on / will be tested on? I am new to geometry in deep learning. It would be amazing if anyone could also point me to a paper or a book to get started on this. Thanks in advance. submitted...

Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.10751 Package: https://github.com/sametcopur/ruleopt Documentation: https://ruleopt.readthedocs.io/ RuleOpt is an optimization-based rule learning algorithm designed for classification problems. Focusing on scalability and interpretability, RuleOpt utilizes linear programming for rule generation and extraction. The...

I've been using LSTM models for time series forecasting and have noticed they perform well for predicting the immediate next step. However, when attempting multi-step predictions to forecast one week ahead (168 periods, with hourly data), the performance drops significantly. Currently, I'm using a recursive approach: feeding back the prediction as...
