UC Berkeley has released a dialogue model for research purposes—Koala. Here’s a link to the web demo: https://bit.ly/3zxXCrC Koala has been trained by fine-tuning Meta’s LLaMA on dialogue data which was scraped from the web—with a particular focus on responses to queries from other large language models like ChatGPT, in addition to question answering datasets […]

Recently, a team of researchers from UC Berkeley and Adobe Research proposed a new machine learning model known as Swapping Autoencoder, which has the capability to perform image manipulation. The key idea of this research is to encode a picture into 2 independent components and then enforce that any swapped combination maps to a realistic…

How Syntactic Biases Help BERT To Achieve Better Language Understanding

Recently, researchers from DeepMind, UC Berkeley and the University of Oxford introduced a knowledge distillation strategy for injecting syntactic biases into BERT pre-training in order to benchmark natural language understanding. Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformers or BERT is one of the most popular neural network-based techniques for natural language processing (NLP) while pre-training.  At the…

Recently, researchers at Alphabet’s DeepMind and the University of California, Berkeley proposed an AI framework for comparing child and AI agent behaviours and hence developing new exploration techniques. While developing a reinforcement learning agent, there are several questions related to the exploring behaviour that comes into the mind of researchers — how should an agent…

From teaching a robot to drive itself off-road to adapting to never-before-seen tasks and grasping occluded objects, University of California, Berkeley, has been investing and doing a number of researches around self-learning techniques.  Recently, researchers at UC Berkeley open-sourced reinforcement learning with Augmented Data (RAD). It is a simple plug-and-play module that can be used…
