An Open Source Database for Eclipse Chasers

Rohit Pandey · Follow Published in Towards Data Science · 11 min read · 3 hours ago — Image created with midjourney Motivation for open data At the risk of stating the obvious, the biggest weakness of a data scientist is that they can’t practice their craft without high quality data. And creating a high quality dataset isn’t exactly trivial. This becomes the most obvious blocker to adding any kind of value via this discipline.

An Exploration of Model-State Data in Anomaly Detection

The Untapped Potential of Neuron-State Data Sara Nóbrega · Follow Published in Towards Data Science · 11 min read · 3 days ago — Image by author. Have you ever wondered if there’s a better way to spot what doesn’t belong in a set of image data? Traditional methods have their place, but what if the key to a more refined approach lies within the model itself — specifically, in the state of its neurons?

Jim Keller laughs at $10B R&D cost for NVIDIA Blackwell, should’ve used ethernet for $1B

NVIDIA spent a sizeable $10 billion on R&D for its next-generation Blackwell GPU architecture, but chip legend Jim Keller said he could’ve done the same job for just $1 billion. I first saw Keller’s tweet, noticing that it looked familiar… he had taken an image of the story I wrote about NVIDIA spending $10 billion on R&D for Blackwell. Great to see, but how does Keller fix NVIDIA’s $10 billion R&D budget for one-tenth of

Enhancing Health Data Interoperability with Large Language Models: A FHIR Study | HackerNoon

Too Long; Didn’t Read Discover how large language models (LLMs) revolutionize healthcare by directly transforming unstructured clinical notes into Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), improving data interoperability and efficiency. The study explores using Large Language Models (LLMs), specifically OpenAI’s GPT-4, to convert unstructured clinical notes into FHIR resources. Through rigorous annotation and testing, the LLM achieved over 90% accuracy, surpassing previous methods. Recommendations include diverse prompts and continuous refinement. This innovation promises to enhance health
