Multimodal Web Agent

About:

This project introduces a multimodal web agent capable of understanding, interpreting and generating both natural language and visual content. It's built on Microsoft's AutoGen framework and leverages OpenAI's Assistants API, drawing inspiration from the "WebVoyager: Building an End-to-End Web Agent with Large Multimodal Models" study. This project is also featured in the AutoGen project gallery.

Self Rewarding Language Model

About:

This project explores "Self Rewarding Language Models" from Yuan et al., 2024, utilizing LLM-as-a-Judge to allow a model to self-improve. It integrates Low-Rank Adaptation from Hu et al., 2021 with the Llama 3 model from Meta, optimizing adaptability without full tuning.

nanoGP[T] using xLSTM Architecture

About:

This project aims to implement the "xLSTM: Extended Long Short-Term Memory" from Hochreiter et al., 2024, specifically focusing on the sLSTM, mLSTM, and the entire xLSTM block. The model is trained according to the the well-known GitHub repository https://github.com/karpathy/nanoGPT by Andrej Karpathy in Torch. Note: Heavily in progress!

Construction Surveillance System

About:

This project establishes a robust surveillance system using Reolink cameras and NVIDIA Jetson platforms. The system includes a Flask API for camera control, image storage on an external NAS, and system monitoring through a Telegram bot. Advanced object detection is powered by a Flask Detection API on the Jetson Xavier, utilizing custom object detection model from Wang et al., 2022 optimized with TensorRT. The project's architecture supports real-time surveillance with efficient storage and remote management capabilities.
