7/29/22: Website reorganization; assess various potential new readings/videos

 Agenda & Minutes

  • Welcome to the 25th meeting, July 29, 2022.
  • Schedule note. We will skip the next two weeks, and the next meeting will be August 19.
  • Updates/news/inputs/comments?
    • This website is reorganized. See the bulleted links to pages on this website in the right column.
  • Readings, viewings, etc. 
    • Thanks to VK for suggesting some videos to vote on.
    • Sources to scan today. 
      • We considered the article associated with last week's video at https://jalammar.github.io/illustrated-transformer this time. We read the first section called "A Higher Level Look." Should we read it in more depth? 5=strongly agree, 4=agree, 3=neutral, 2=disagree, 1=strongly disagree. Vote to read more was: 4.
      • Then we watched to 4:40 of another video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQQlZhbC5ps. Vote to finish was 4.
      • We ended here but next time could consider additional sources:
        • Read another bit of "Transformers From Scratch," https://e2eml.school/transformers.html, and decide if we want to circle back and finish it. We have read up to the subsection "Sequence Completion" earlier and can read on from there if we wish.
        • We can discuss and vote on other sources, as time allows. See the list on the page of sources.
    • Readings/videos we have finished. 
      • The Narrated Transformer Language Model, Jay Alammar, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QH8fRhqFHM, finished 7/22/22.
      • Other things from before this list of finished sources was created.

7/8/22: Continue with the article we have been reading

 Agenda & Minutes

  • Welcome to the 22nd meeting, July 8, 2022.
  • Updates/news/inputs/comments
    • VK paper status? Still waiting for publication.
  • Readings, viewings, etc. 
    • Source to read/view in depth. 
      • https://e2eml.school/transformers.html: "Transformers From Scratch." We read up to the subsection "Sequence Completion" and can start there next time. Or we could switch perhaps temporarily to another transformers article like https://jalammar.github.io/illustrated-transformer/. Maybe we could spend 15 min. on each, and then decide. The accompanying video is good too, at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QH8fRhqFHM. VK and I agreed that we should watch the video next, and then return to the article (or the other article). The original vote was 4 3/8 out of 5 for this document, though we can always revote as we progress through it.
    • Sources to scan to see if we want to read more. Please send in more suggestions for readings. We can read/view the first paragraph/minute or so of each, assessing each. Should we read it in more depth? 5=strongly agree, 4=agree, 3=neutral, 2=disagree, 1=strongly disagree.
