#neurips

I'll be at NeurIPS next week starting Tuesday! Please reach out if you want to talk anything multimodal, data curation, synthetic data, and inference optimizations.

I'd love to learn more about your research area as well :))

I'm re-sharing some recent blog posts on using VLMs for synthetic data generation since there are no link penalties here!

How to generate a dataset of queries for training and fine-tuning domain-specific ColPali models using a VLM.

Working on making data curation dirt cheap btw

If you're a cracked engineer we'd love to have you :))
DM me if you have any questions!

(also looking for enthusiastic research interns)

The text team cooked so much 🧑‍🍳 it might be better than your Thanksgiving meal

Check out this super thorough thread on what and how we achieved the best curated text dataset using public data

Was working on some model inference optimization research (speculative decoding) but in the multimodal setting with vision-language models (i.e. conditioned on images)

blue = draft model tokens
red = target model tokens
yellow = bonus target model tokens

#dataviz am I doing this right?

now using uv for any new project and trying to migrate existing projects to uv

Starting a new project:
uv init
uv venv --python 3.xx,
source .venv/bin/activate
uv add (dependencies) or uv pip install -r requirements.txt

❤️
- installing torch in like 10 seconds
- uv sync for fast startup

Massive, impressive post on data curation strategies for producing better models with less data and compute. The best part of data curation is that it's a (relatively small) one time cost that gets amortized over all future models.

Web-Scale Data Curation is a frontier challenge - I'm excited to show the progress we've made in just 6 months @datologyai

tl;dr: we've pretrained the most data-efficient and best-in-class CLIP models!

Read on to see how our product powers multimodal data curation
1/n 🧵

Pouring one out for my bluesky x data gang 🍻 Get ready to see the culmination of the web-scale multimodal data curation work we've been cooking up at DatologyAI!

I'm beyond excited to share soon :))

if there's enough interest, might drop something earlier 👀

hello world! I was convinced by @codestar.bsky.social so lets see how much signal is here
