From Physics to Probability: Hamiltonian Mechanics for Generative Modeling and MCMC

Phase space of a nonlinear pendulum. Photo by the author. Hamiltonian mechanics is a way to describe how physical systems, like planets or pendulums, move over time, focusing on energy rather than just forces. By reframing complex dynamics through energy lenses, this 19th-century physics framework now powers cutting-edge generative AI. It uses generalized coordinates ( […]

Data Science: From School to Work, Part III

Introduction Writing code is about solving problems, but not every problem is predictable. In the real world, your software will encounter unexpected situations: missing files, invalid user inputs, network timeouts, or even hardware failures. This is why handling errors isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s a critical part of building robust and reliable applications for production.

Large language models (LLMs) are improving in efficiency and are now able to understand different data formats, offering possibilities for myriads of applications in different domains. Initially, LLMs were inherently able to process only text. The image understanding feature was integrated by coupling an LLM with another image encoding model. However, gpt-4o was trained on

Automate Supply Chain Analytics Workflows with AI Agents using n8n

Why build things the hard way when you can design them the smart way? As a Supply Chain Data Scientist, I’ve explored various frameworks like LangChain and LangGraph to build AI agents using Python. Leveraging LLMs with LangChain for Supply Chain Analytics — A Control Tower Powered by GPT — (Image by Samir Saci) The illustration above is from an

Uncertainty Quantification in Machine Learning with an Easy Python Interface

Uncertainty quantification (UQ) in a Machine Learning (ML) model allows one to estimate the precision of its predictions. This is extremely important for utilizing its predictions in real-world tasks. For instance, if a machine learning model is trained to predict a property of a material, a predicted value with a 20% uncertainty (error) is likely

Attractors in Neural Network Circuits: Beauty and Chaos

The state space of the first two neuron activations over time follows an attractor. What is one thing in common between memories, oscillating chemical reactions and double pendulums? All these systems have a basin of attraction for possible states, like a magnet that draws the system towards certain trajectories. Complex systems with multiple inputs usually
