Please Use Streaming Workload to Benchmark Vector Databases | by Eric Zhù | Dec, 2023

[ad_1] Why static workload is insufficient and what I learned by comparing HNSWLIB and DiskANN using streaming workload Image by DALLE-3Vector databases are built for high-dimensional vector retrieval. Today, many vectors are embeddings generated by deep neural nets like GPTs and CLIP to represent data points such as pieces of text, images, or audio tracks.…

Achieving Greater Self-Consistency in Large Language Models | by Anthony Alcaraz | Dec, 2023

[ad_1] When LLMs are used to evaluate qualities like the correctness, accuracy, or relevance of a piece of text, consistency is paramount. If an LLM exhibits inconsistent judgements, then its evaluations become unreliable and untrustworthy. If an LLM evaluates the reasoning quality of arguments, but contradicts itself by rating an invalid argument as more logically…

Level Up Your Data Storytelling with Animated Bar Charts in Plotly | by Brian Mattis | Dec, 2023

[ad_1] Transforming static plots into captivating narratives Photo by Teemu Paananen on UnsplashPlotly supports an excellent foundation for animated plots. I highly recommend their basic tutorial here. However, plotly animations are primarily set up to add another dimension to the visualization — usually time. This is fantastic for adding more meaning to a plot. Animation,…

A Marriage of Machine Learning and Optimization Algorithms | by Wouter van Heeswijk, PhD | Dec, 2023

[ad_1] How pattern detection and pattern exploitation might elevate each other to a new level Instead of benchmark optimization- and machine learning algorithms against each other, we should consider how they can strengthen each other [Photo by Wedding Dreamz on Unsplash]Although most of us don’t see it, optimization algorithms (OAs) are at work everywhere. They…
