Python Decorators: What is decorators and how to use them?

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , , , , , , , ,
Decorators are a powerful and versatile tool that allows you to modify the behavior of functions without permanently altering their original code. They work by wrapping a function in another function, which adds some extra functionality before or after the original function executes. What they are: Decorators are higher-order functions, meaning they take another function as an argument and return a new function. The new function returned by the decorator typically acts as a wrapper around the original function, adding or modifying its behavior. How they work: Defining the Decorator: You create a function that takes another function as its…

There’s a reason AI firms can barely conceal their contempt for the creative industry

stp2y0 CommentsRAG models
AI companies may be hard at work disrupting the creative industry, but some firms can barely hide their disdain for the artists their product might hurt. Last month, OpenAI's CTO Mira Murati raised eyebrows when she appeared to brush aside the seismic impact that AI could have on the job market for creatives."Some creative jobs maybe will go away, but maybe they shouldn't have been there in the first place," Murati said at an event at her alma mater, Dartmouth College, on June 8. "You know, if the content that comes out of it is not very high quality."In fact, Murati isn't…

MetaFruit Meets Foundation Models: Leveraging a Comprehensive Multi-Fruit Dataset for Advancing Agricultural Foundation Models

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
arXiv:2407.04711v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fruit harvesting poses a significant labor and financial burden for the industry, highlighting the critical need for advancements in robotic harvesting solutions. Machine vision-based fruit detection has been recognized as a crucial component for robust identification of fruits to guide robotic manipulation. Despite considerable progress in leveraging deep learning and machine learning techniques for fruit detection, a common shortfall is the inability to swiftly extend the developed models across different orchards and/or various fruit species. Additionally, the limited availability of pertinent data further compounds these challenges. In this work, we introduce MetaFruit, the largest publicly…

[Submitted on 5 Jul 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Toucan: Many-to-Many Translation for 150 African Language Pairs, by AbdelRahim Elmadany and 2 other authors View PDF Abstract:We address a notable gap in Natural Language Processing (NLP) by introducing a collection of resources designed to improve Machine Translation (MT) for low-resource languages, with a specific focus on African languages. First, We introduce two language models (LMs), Cheetah-1.2B and Cheetah-3.7B, with 1.2 billion and 3.7 billion parameters respectively. Next, we finetune the aforementioned models to create toucan, an Afrocentric machine translation model designed to support 156 African language pairs.…

Microsoft Notepad just got spellcheck in the year 2024

stp2y0 CommentsNews, , , , , ,
It has finally happened. Microsoft’s text editor Notepad just got a spellcheck feature, more than 40 years after the software launched in 1983. For the history buffs, Ronald Reagan was still president in 1983 and Ghostbusters, then called Ghost Smashers, was an unmade script set to star Eddie Murphy. It was a long time ago.Microsoft just rolled out the new spellcheck tool to the Notepad app in Windows 11 and it works how one would expect. It automatically checks spelling errors. The company began testing the feature, to whatever extent it required testing, back in March and now it has…

A new cooking oil scandal has erupted in China, about a decade after the country's infamous crackdown on restaurants reusing gutter oil and sewage grease.The furor follows a bombshell investigation published on July 2 by state media outlet Beijing News, which found multiple cases of tank trucks transporting edible cooking oil immediately after delivering chemicals used for coal-to-liquid processing.The report's author, Han Futao, found that none of the tank interiors were cleaned between loads.Han described one case in which a tank truck in Hebei province delivered chemicals in Qinhuangdao before rushing to Sanhe days later to be filled with soy…
