NLP for economics 1.1 is out !

Following the 1.0 collection, I release the 1.1 version with an updated dataset for sentence similarity as well as a raw dataset from central bankers speeches.

The newest model is econo-sentence-v2 is a new version of a sentence-transformers model based on EconoBert ! It gets better results with a nuance on similarity.

If you're an economist looking for useful tools, don't hesitate to check it out !

📢 Old Research Alert: Making Computer Vision Models Smaller & Smarter!

Years ago, I coded an optimization in the first layers of a convolutional neural network (computer vision) and ended never posting here. The optimization decreases the number of parameters while increasing accuracy. The optimization relies in separating (branching) chromatic and achromatic information through the layers of a neural network.

Hello!

I was just playing around with Python's MIDI library and Colab's code generation, accidentally cooked up a quick n' dirty audio synthesis template.
Have fun!
