Keeping multimodal parsing free for all

One commit at a time, we are keeping multimodal document understanding, parsing, and information extraction free under a permissive license.If you like the idea, or if something is missing or something we can do better, give us a nudge.https://github.com/oidlabs-com/LexoidInitial benchmarks: https://oidlabs-com.github.io/Lexoid/benchmark.html#benchmark-resultsWork in progress ...

True, but the cost for other models will continue to go down as well.

recently, started using rye. Convenient for sure.

I guess for self-evaluation and generation, we might want to choose a model that's performant for the job. This means that if the 70B is fine-tuned, that is probably the judge + augmentor vs a generic model. Also, I think the paper shows the win rate using the Mistral medium on some preliminary benchmark (Table 2)

But, I liked the idea that the reward model is not static, and if the user is provided with multiple options, then the extra score might help break the tie.

Thanks

So you would rather connect to a databricks lake from a privately hosted jupyterhub if that's an option?
Interesting
Has anyone compared performance between LLaMa.cpp vs Alpaca.cpp?
this is awesome. great work :)

Great intro on the topic using pymc package
