Curious how many papers were assigned to reviewers on average! Review quality seems better than average from my small sample size. Wondering if that correlates with a lower reviewer load? E.g. I only received 2 papers to review.

+ No system pre-reqs, multi-stage PyTorch workflows in one script, CLI integrations, catching system failures as exceptions, SLURM support, better logging, and so much more!

Additional fine-tuning examples in our docs with:

A cool side-effect: fine-tune any LLM (from
@huggingface
transformers) on any text dataset *with multiple nodes* in just *one command*.

It's a replacement for CLI tools, like "torchrun".

Most basic usage: specify some (SSH-enabled) machines you want to parallelize your code on. Then launch a function onto that configuration.

All from inside your Python script!

I think typing my code and using a linter (ruff) + static type checker (pyright) saves me a lot of grief.

I am an ex-Paperpile user and am liking Zotero lately! Free storage from the university helps.

“Turn” a decoder into an encoder with LLM2Vec (github.com/McGill-NLP/l...). Seen at COLM 2024 :)

If you want the naive, training-free / model-agnostic approach: their related work section says it is most common to using the final token’s last hidden state.
