Finance teams are well aware of the tedious and error-prone nature of manual accounts payable processes. Sorting through stacks of paper invoices, reaching out to approvers individually, and mailing checks are extremely tedious and error-prone. This could also lead to late payments or in some cases potential vendor fraud. Today, you can automate these processes using…

Are you looking to upskill in 2024? Maybe you want to learn more about computer science and see what the hype around the tech world is. Maybe learn the most popular programming language Python? Or transition into something more niche, for example, gaming or cyber security.
In this blog, I…
Exploring the path to fast nearest neighbour search with Hierarchical Navigable Small Worlds 13 min read · 19 hours ago Image created by DALL·E 2 with the prompt “A bright abstract expressionist painting of a layered network of dots connected by lines.”Hierarchical Navigable Small World (HNSW) has become popular as one of…
There has been a recent uptick in the development of general-purpose multimodal AI assistants capable of following visual and written directions, thanks to the remarkable success of Large Language Models (LLMs). By utilizing the impressive reasoning capabilities of LLMs and information found in huge alignment corpus (such as image-text pairs), they demonstrate the immense potential…
In this short piece, I use public Wikipedia data, Python programming, and network analysis to extract and draw up a network of Oscar-winning actors and actresses. All images were created by the author. Wikipedia, as the largest free, crowdsourced online encyclopedia, serves as a tremendously rich data source on various public domains. Many of these…
The intersection of artificial intelligence and creativity has witnessed an exceptional breakthrough in the form of text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models. These models, which convert textual descriptions into visually compelling images, have broadened the horizons of digital art, content creation, and more. Yet this rapidly evolving area of Personalized T2I generation study grapples with several core…
Some of the struggles I face frequently as a data scientist Photo by ThisIsEngineering from Pexels: https://www.pexels.com/photo/female-software-engineer-coding-on-computer-3861972/Ostensibly, it may seem that being a data scientist is all sunshine and rainbows (at least I think that is the perception I give from my posts!). High pay, great benefits, flexible hours, and interesting work are some things…
Deep learning has revolutionized view synthesis in computer vision, offering diverse approaches like NeRF and end-to-end style architectures. Traditionally, 3D modeling methods like voxels, point clouds, or meshes were employed. NeRF-based techniques implicitly represent 3D scenes using MLPs. Recent advancements focus on image-to-image approaches, generating novel views from collections of scene images. These methods often…
An end-to-end implementation of a Pytorch Transformer, in which we will cover key concepts such as self-attention, encoders, decoders, and much more. 17 min read · 18 hours ago Photo by Susan Holt Simpson on UnsplashWhen I decided to dig deeper into Transformer architectures, I often felt frustrated when reading or watching…
Careers in data are not for everyone — you need patience to work with evolving business, security, and infrastructure requirements and a good amount of mental endurance to work with endless data issues and changes. But they can also be the most interesting jobs in the world. Every month has a new puzzle to put…
