Winograd convolutions cost us 2 mAP and we didn't notice for a month
TL;DR: We turned on Winograd convolution to shave latency off a pedestrian detector running on a Cortex-A53, got a clean 18% speedup, and silently los…

Как я сделал Smart Select для Krita: локальное AI-выделение объектов по лассо
Я недавно начал пользоваться Krita, и после Фотошопа основной болью для меня было отсутствие удобного инструмента для умного выделения объектов выделе…
PyTorch from Scratch — Part 1: Tensors, Gradients & Activations
Most people use PyTorch without really knowing what's happening underneath. This series breaks the foundations down into the simplest possible explana…
Why JAX Is a Much Better Backend for Quantum Circuit Simulation Than PyTorch
Modern quantum circuit simulation is not just “machine learning with complex tensors.” It involves irregular tensor contractions, sparse operators, st…
AI Coding Tools for Machine Learning Engineers in 2026: Jupyter, PyTorch, and the CUDA Trap
This article was originally published on aicoderscope.com ML engineers aren't software engineers who happen to write some Python. They live in noteboo…
Our event-camera detector lost 6 mAP to a badly chosen accumulation window
TL;DR: We spent three weeks chasing a 6 mAP regression in an event-camera object detector. The model was fine. The bug was the accumulation window we …
From Bayesian to deep knowledge tracing — upgrading NumPath's student model with a PyTorch LSTM
BKT told us how well a student knows subtraction-with-borrowing. It had no idea that a student who reverses digits on subtraction problems probably al…
QAT vs PTQ on our edge vision model: 6 months of A/B data
TL;DR: We ran post-training quantisation (PTQ) and quantisation-aware training (QAT) side by side on the same defect-classification model deployed on …
LLM-as-judge variance broke our DPO training signal for 3 weeks
TL;DR: Our DPO pipeline used a single LLM as the preference judge. Training reward climbed every run. Production accuracy fell 4 points. The judge was…
The bf16 grad accumulator that killed our SDXL LoRA training
TL;DR: Our SDXL LoRA fine-tune for a Photoroom product photography model trained for six days while silently corrupting its adapter weights. The cause…
Я хотел повторить Growing Neural CA за вечер. Ушёл месяц
Месяц назад я прочитал на Хабре статью про нейронные клеточные автоматы. Маленькие нейросети управляют клетками на сетке, клетки сами с…
Prefix caching in vLLM under multi-tenant agent traffic
TL;DR: We turned on vLLM's prefix cache for our agent workloads at Nexus Labs and watched TTFT drop from 480ms to 110ms on one tenant and stay exactly…
I Built a Diagnostic Toolkit for PyTorch Because I Was Tired of Guessing Why Models Fail
Every time a PyTorch model refuses to learn, the debugging process looks the same: Stare at the loss curve Wonder if gradients are flowing Add print s…
Why Your PyTorch Training Crawls on a Beefy GPU (And How to Fix It)
Last month I was helping a friend debug a training loop that was running at maybe 15% GPU utilization on an A100. Fifteen percent. On a card that cost…
Why your diffusion model is slow at batch size 1 (and what actually helps)
TL;DR: Single-image diffusion inference is bottlenecked by kernel launch overhead and attention memory traffic, not raw FLOPs. torch.compile with mode…
DDP Is Not Always Faster
That is the result of this experiment, and it is the most important thing to understand about distributed training before you reach for it. I ran my n…
[Перевод] Вредоносный PyTorch Lightning сливал пароли через скрытый JavaScript
30 апреля на PyPI обнаружили новую версию PyTorch Lightning, которая при импорте скачивала Bun и запускала 11,4 МБ опасного JavaScript-вора. Цель — бр…
Запрещённая математика в твоём autograd: бесконечно малые, дуальные числа и нестандартный анализ
Когда вы пишете loss.backward() в PyTorch, ваш autograd делает то, что 200 лет считалось математической ересью: оперирует бесконечно малыми …
