Really nice product! Documentation in a new level!



Guys, sorry for the typos. The original title was too long. I needed to replace "First" to "1st" (HN switch back automatically, lol) and try to abbreviate.


Still doesn't explain "algorithn".


"n" is more narrow than "m", so the title would fit HN's title length limits.


N is right next to M in QWERTY keyboards. Typing fast, you may hit one instead of the other.


Why would they type it manually at all? My understanding is that they copypasted the title, was prompted it was too long, tried to short First to 1st which HN automatically expanded upon which they removed some words instead. So how did algorithm become "algorithn"?

This is not some random nitpicking. This is a great mystery worthy of its own detective TV show so I don't appreciate the downvotes. All my friends are extremely puzzled by this whole situation.


Kiro, perhaps I'm a bot from FB that posts our scientific achievements on HN. FB needs to improve my algorithn!


I think the big achievement is how it surpassed in performance previous models for each individual modality.


That's not true for NLU at least. It is on par with 2018's RoBERTa on GLUE, many larger and advanced language models came after.

It is still great work though, a robust masking representation architecture that works across modalities.


They mention that on the article:

> We apply data2vec separately to speech, images and text and it outperformed the previous best single-purpose algorithms for computer vision and speech and it is competitive on NLP tasks.




Good you asked. We have MarvinJS on the way. It's a javascript port of the project. It's going to be released in the next weeks.

Perhaps you can help in the beta test phase.

What kind of image processing operations do you want to perform?

Please, you and anyone else interested in using image processing in Javascript, send an e-mail to leirbag.arc@gmail.com


We also have the entire project on Github. Take a look: https://github.com/gabrielarchanjo/marvinproject


Yeah but why not move to GitHub instead of making it a copy?


It's something under discussion, but we are too focused on the framework and project content now!

I'm pretty sure there are advantages in this change and I think it's just a matter of time.


What's there to discuss?

Not in a sarcastic manner, but seriously what's SourceForge got that Github doesn't provide?

Or is it a matter of just making time for that migration?


And even then, it seems like 20 minutes worth of work. Not a whole lot to it.


Guys, I got it!

More importantly, I didn't post the framework release to make this a discussion "SourceForge vs Github".

What's really matter is the project itself and not where it is hosted!


That's pretty much the point though: the fact of it being on sourceforge distracts from the contents of the project itself and turns every conversation into a "sourceforge sucks" circle jerk.

At this point, their reputation is so terrible that even if sourceforge was objectively better, it'd still be a good idea to move away from it.
