Int8 - about machine learning.
My journey with the SoccerNet Team Ball Action Spotting Task at SoccerNet Challenge 2025, from zero knowledge to building a refined T-DEED model using tailored augmentations, training strategies, and effective post-processing to achieve test server winning solution (challenge dataset results to be announced on CVPR 2025)
The purpose of this blog post is to experiment with the recent superstar of the local Large Language Models world, Mistral-7B. Developed by former Meta employees who previously worked on Llama LLM, Mistral-7B, despite being relatively small in size (“only” 7B parameters) beats several popular larger models in numerous benchmarks. The crucial aspect that sets Mistral-7b apart is its open-source ...
Over the past few years, machine learning has become a bit daunting for regular folks. The coolest toys were being created by big companies with massive budgets, immense computational power, and the best talents in the world. Very often, the weights of the large models created by these big players were not disclosed, but rather bragged about in research papers/demo applications or exposed via p...
The field of machine learning is changing extremely fast for last couple of years. Growing amount of tools and libraries, fully-fledged academia education offer, MOOC, great market demand, but also sort of sacred, magical nature of the field itself (calling it Artificial Intelligence is pretty much standard right now) – all these imply enormous motivation and progress. As a result, well-establi...
At the end of 2020, after 8 years since announcement, Polish game development studio CDPR released its flag game titled Cyberpunk. A big success of CDPR’s previous game Witcher 3 and their “gamers-first” approach implied CDPR being perceived as a golden child of a gaming industry. CDPR was seen as one of few healthy apples in a basket of rotten fruits. Of course, there was only one emotion towa...
