Our next meetup is dedicated to Data Engineering and Data Management. Join us on Friday, March 19th: meetup.com/PyData-MTL/events…
If you missed our latest NLP meetup, don't worry, you can watch the recording of it whenever you have time :) youtube.com/watch?v=RG-yV5zg…
Finally, tomorrow we will learn from @TheShubhanshu. His talk is called "Understanding digital social trace data via Information Extraction"
Abstract:
I will describe how to efficiently extract information (e.g. phrases, named entities, and categories like topics, sentiment,(1/5)
I will end with ways on improving text classification via features derived from the DSTD representation. Details can be found at shubhanshu.com/phd_thesis/. (4/5)
Join our meetup tomorrow, February 25th at 5:30 EST: meetup.com/PyData-MTL/events…

The second talk on the agenda of our upcoming NLP meetup is "Learning to translate with JoeyNMT" by @KreutzerJulia.
Abstract:
Machine translation is one of the most impactful NLP applications. Despite many toolkits for it being open-sourced, 1/3
we realized there was something missing: one that is developed for beginners and newcomers to the field. In this talk, we will get to know the JoeyNMT toolkit (github.com/joeynmt), a minimalist toolkit for machine translation built on PyTorch. 2/3
We will learn about the development process, deep dive into the code, and talk about applications. 3/3

The first talk of our next meetup: "Fine-tuning a large language model without your own supercomputer" by @GuggerSylvain
Abstract:
State-of-the-art results in NLP involve more and more the use of a generic pretrained language model fine-tuned on a specific downstream task. 1/4
This Thursday, February 25th, join us at 5:30 pm EST for an NLP-focused meetup with talks by @GuggerSylvain, @KreutzerJulia, and @TheShubhanshu meetup.com/PyData-MTL/events…

I'll be talking at PyData Montreal at the end of the month about the recent additions to the Transformers library to fine-tune big models :-)
Our next meetup will be focused on NLP. Join us on February 25th to learn from our amazing guests: @GuggerSylvain, @KreutzerJulia, and @TheShubhanshu meetup.com/PyData-MTL/events…
