Series: Addison-Wesley data & analytics series.Publisher: Hoboken : Addison-Wesley, ©2024Edition: First.Description: 251 p.Content type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9780138199197.Genre/Form: Print books.Summary: "The advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs) has revolutionized the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in recent years. Models like BERT, T5, and ChatGPT have demonstrated unprecedented performance on a wide range of NLP tasks, from text classification to machine translation. Despite their impressive performance, the use of LLMs remains challenging for many practitioners. The sheer size of these models, combined with the lack of understanding of their inner workings, has made it difficult for practitioners to effectively use and optimize these models for their specific needs. This book is a practical guide to the use of LLMs in NLP. It provides an overview of the key concepts and techniques used in LLMs and explains how these models work and how they can be used for various NLP tasks. The book also covers advanced topics, such as fine-tuning, alignment, and information retrieval while providing practical tips and tricks for training and optimizing LLMs for specific NLP tasks. This book addresses a wide range of topics in the field of LLMs, including the basics, launching an application with proprietary models, fine-tuning GPT3 with custom examples, prompt engineering, building a recommendation engine, combining Transformers, and deploying custom LLMs to the cloud"--| Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
