The past month I've been writing detailed notes for the first 15 lectures of Stanford's NLP with Deep Learning. Notes contain code, equations, practical tips, references, etc.

As I tidy the notes, I need to figure out how to best publish them. Here are the topics covered so far:

Some of the most amazing applications of machine learning will probably come from folks working on brain-computer interface (BCI).

Check out this new paper discussing high-performance brain-to-text communication via handwriting.

Future of programming?

There is a lot of interest in large language models.

As a developer or researcher, you are probably looking for a guide on how to ramp up on LLMs.

Here is a study plan you could try:

My suggested study plan for now: 1) get familiar with concepts, 2) learn about Transformers, 3) learn about the foundation models, 4) continue keeping track of code, papers, and results, and 5) get building.

1) CS224N: Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning

It doesn't hurt to learn some of the concepts first. Depending on your level of knowledge it might be suitable to try a more basic

2) Stanford CS25 - Transformers United

Learn all about transformers in this fantastic

3) Foundation Models

You can learn about all types of foundation models like GPT-3, DINO, CLIP, Codex, among

Machine Learning Notes

I've been writing notes introducing some of the most important topics in AI today.

This thread lists a few notes I've published so far:

Introduction to Machine

Introduction to Deep

Introduction to Sequential

Introduction to Deep Computer

Python Data Science Handbook.

An excellent book for those seeking an introduction to data science and machine learning.

Chapters have been converted to publicly available Colab notebooks.

Covers:
- NumPy
- Pandas
- Matplotlib
- ML algorithms

Did you know?

When Saudi Arabia's King visited India in 1955, PM Nehru ordered all the Hindu Temples and Idols of Hindu Deities that came in Saudi King's way to be covered up.
Our temples are the architectural marvels in their own league.

Each of our temples tells the story of our rich history and cultural heritage. Was Nehru that ashamed of his own nation's heritage that he had to cover them up or there was some other reason? The answer would be best known to him only.

PM Nehru invited the then Saudi King Saud bin Abdul Aziz to India who accepted the invitation and planned a 17 day long official visit to India in 1955. Saudi King had brought a large delegation with him and he had to visit various Indian cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra,

Aligarh, Shimla, Mysore and Varanasi. However, when Saudi King reached Varanasi, Nehru ordered to cover all the temples and Idols with curtains that came in the way of the Royal Convoy. During his stay in Varanasi, Govt buildings were painted with the words "Kalma Tayyiba".

'Kalma Tayyiba' means 'There is not God but only Allah and Mohammed is his messenger'. In addition to it, Pooja and Aartis were also stopped at temples. I can call it the appeasement politics of the highest order and Nehru was indeed the greatest appeaser of all times.

MEENAKSHI AMMAN, MADURAI (TN)
#bharatmandir #navratri2021

A paadal Petra sthalam where Shiva took the form of Sundareswarar (the handsome one) and married Devi Parvati (Meenakshi).
Devi is also known by the name Angayarkanni (mother with the beautiful fish eyes).
@GunduHuDuGa

Devi Meenakshi emerged from yagna fire as a 3 year old girl when Pandyan King Malayadwaja and Kanchanamalai were praying for a child.
It is said that Devi was born with three breasts and there was a prophesy that her superfluous breast would melt away when she met her husband.

Devi ruled over Madurai and captured Indralok. She went on to capture Kailasha. When she saw Shiva, her 3rd breast disappeared and she realised that Shiva would be her consort.
The divine marriage was attended by all Devas and Sri Vishnu (as her brother) gave her hand to Shiva.

It is said that Indra found a swayambhu lingam at Kadamba Vanam. He placed it in Madurai where the kshetram stands. Here, Shiva is seen on the vehicle of Indra.
The Golden Lotus Tank is said to be the place where a golden lotus blossomed for the puja performed by Indra.

The Meenakshi Thirukalyanam festival is celebrated in the Chithirai month to mark the divine marriage of Meenakshi Amman. The festival includes a procession where Meenakshi and Sundareshwara travel in a chariot and Sri Vishnu gives away his sister in marriage to Shiva.
