Beginner Guide to Building a Hate Speech Classifier with BERT

You've seen the warnings: "This comment may violate our community guidelines," or you've watched online posts or videos get flagged and removed due to their hate speech content. This means that the platform is already using models to detect harmful content. However, have you ever questioned how these models work? How are these models able to understand human sarcasm, cultural slang, and even multilingual language in one sentence? In this guide, we'll walk through the [...]

Motoko vs Solidity: A Developer-Centric Comparison

Motoko vs Solidity: A Developer-Centric Comparison A New Era in Smart Contract Development Innovative contract development has evolved significantly over the past decade. With the rise of decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and a growing ecosystem of decentralized applications, Solidity has long been the standard for writing contracts on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). It introduced developers to a new paradigm: trustless systems, which do not require trust between parties, programmable money, and [...]

What is BERTScore – Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers Score?

BERTScore (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers Score) Cheat Sheet BERTScore is an effective evaluation metric that looks beyond surface-level word matching to assess the meaning behind the generated text. Instead of counting overlapping words like traditional metrics such as BLEU or ROUGE, BERTScore taps into the power of pre-trained transformer models (like BERT) to compare the semantic similarity between tokens in the generated output and a reference sentence. It does this by calculating the [...]

What is Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) in Machine Learning?

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Cheat Sheet Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is a method that enhances large language models (LLMs) outputs by incorporating information from external, authoritative knowledge sources. Instead of relying solely on pre-trained data, RAG retrieves relevant content at inference time to ground its responses. LLMs (Large Language Models) are trained on massive datasets and use billions of parameters to perform tasks like: Question answering Language translation Text completion RAG extends LLM capabilities to domain-specific [...]

What is Metric for Evaluation of Translation with Explicit ORdering?

When evaluating machine translations, assessing how closely the translation matches a human's understanding is essential. METEOR (Metric for Evaluation of Translation with Explicit ORdering) is an evaluation metric that provides a more comprehensive and accurate measurement of translation quality. Unlike traditional metrics like BLEU, METEOR considers precision and recall and the semantic meaning of words and their order in a sentence, offering a more nuanced and reliable translation evaluation. In this article, we'll delve [...]
