Decoding Visual Sentiment of Political Imagery

Decoding Visual Sentiment of Political Imagery

arXiv:2408.04103v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: How can we define visual sentiment when viewers systematically disagree on their perspectives? This study introduces a novel approach to visual sentiment analysis by integrating attitudinal differences into visual sentiment classification. Recognizing that societal divides, such as partisan differences, heavily influence sentiment labeling, we developed a dataset that reflects these divides. We then trained a deep learning multi-task multi-class model to predict visual sentiment from different ideological viewpoints. Applied to immigration-related images, our approach captures perspectives from both Democrats and Republicans. By incorporating diverse perspectives into the labeling and model training process, our strategy addresses…

LLM Observability: Fundamentals, Practices, and Tools

LLM Observability: Fundamentals, Practices, and Tools

LLM observability is the practice of gathering data about an LLM-based system in production to understand, evaluate, and optimize it. Developers and operators gain insight by recording prompts and user feedback, tracing user requests through the components, monitoring latency and API usage, performing LLM evaluations, and assessing retrieval performance. A range of frameworks and platforms supports the implementation of LLM observability. As new types of models are released and best practices emerge, these tools will continue to adapt and evolve. Large Language Models (LLMs) have become the driving force behind AI-powered applications, ranging from translation services to chatbots and RAG…

Enhancing Healthcare through Large Language Models: A Study on Medical Question Answering

Enhancing Healthcare through Large Language Models: A Study on Medical Question Answering

arXiv:2408.04138v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In recent years, the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) in healthcare has shown significant promise in improving the accessibility and dissemination of medical knowledge. This paper presents a detailed study of various LLMs trained on the MedQuAD medical question-answering dataset, with a focus on identifying the most effective model for providing accurate medical information. Among the models tested, the Sentence-t5 combined with Mistral 7B demonstrated superior performance, achieving a precision score of 0.762. This model's enhanced capabilities are attributed to its advanced pretraining techniques, robust architecture, and effective prompt construction methodologies. By leveraging these…

A woman won gold at the Olympics by eating more and exercising less to gain 22 pounds

A British athlete won an Olympic gold medal by eating more food and exercising less to gain 22 pounds.On Thursday, Ellie Aldridge, 27, competed in kitefoiling, a new Olympic sport that favors heavier athletes.Kitefoiling, also known as Formula Kite, is similar to windsurfing. Athletes race on boards that feature hydrofoils and hand-control foil kites that pick up wind, enabling athletes to travel at speeds of over 50mph across the water.Bigger kitefoilers have an edge because they can hold down larger, heavier kites and so go faster. Aldridge won the first ever gold medal in women's Olympic kitefoiling. Alex Livesey/Getty Images…

Firefox Nightly: Mozilla makes it easier to test vertical tabs – gHacks Tech News

Firefox Nightly: Mozilla makes it easier to test vertical tabs – gHacks Tech News

The latest Firefox Nightly release makes it easier to test vertical tabs and the browser's new sidebar. Mozilla launched support for the, much requested, vertical tabs feature in Firefox in June. Back then, it was necessary to flip several configuration switches manually to unlock the functionality. Today's Nightly update changes this. Now, vertical tabs and sidebar can be enabled in the browser's settings. This exposes the feature to more testers and makes it easier to manage it. Vertical Tabs arrive in Firefox Nightly's Settings Here is how that is done: Load about:preferences#experimental in the browser's address bar. If you prefer…

US Series A And B Funding Picked Up in H1. What Does That Mean For Funding In 2024?

US Series A And B Funding Picked Up in H1. What Does That Mean For Funding In 2024?

Editors note: Next up we will look at the investors that have increased their pace at this stage in the first half of 2024. Although Series A and B funding for U.S.-based companies picked up in H1 2024 — up 34% year over year — the uptick may be deceiving. While total funding reached $31.5 billion — the highest amount invested at this stage in two years — that increase was concentrated in larger fundings and in two leading sectors — healthcare/biotech and AI. That includes a $6 billion Series B to xAI, which accounts for much of the increase.…
