Neuroprosthetic devices have significantly advanced brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), enabling communication for individuals with speech or motor impairments due to conditions like anarthria, ALS, or severe paralysis. These devices decode neural activity patterns by implanting electrodes in motor regions, allowing users to form complete sentences. Early BCIs were limited to recognizing basic linguistic elements, but recent … Read more

Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly advanced due to the Transformer architecture, with recent models like Gemini-Pro1.5, Claude-3, GPT4, and Llama3.1 demonstrating capabilities to process hundreds of thousands of tokens. However, these expanded context lengths introduce critical challenges for practical deployment. As sequence length increases, decoding latency escalates and memory constraints become severe bottlenecks. The … Read more

In this tutorial, we will look into how to easily perform sentiment analysis on text data using IBM’s open-source Granite 3B model integrated with Hugging Face Transformers. Sentiment analysis, a widely-used natural language processing (NLP) technique, helps quickly identify the emotions expressed in text. It makes it invaluable for businesses aiming to understand customer feedback … Read more

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, the need for accessible, efficient language models is increasingly evident. Traditional large-scale models have advanced natural language understanding and generation considerably, yet they often remain out of reach for many researchers and smaller organizations. High training costs, proprietary restrictions, and a lack of transparency can hinder innovation and limit … Read more
