I'm working on a project that translates any language into English. So far, I've tried NMT models like NLLB, MADLAD, and SeamlessM4T v2. The main issue is that they struggle with proper nouns such as: - names - places - dates - organizations I also tried LLMs like Gemma 4, Qwen 3 4B, and Aya Tiny Global, but the issue still persists. The LLMs sometimes partially translate or modify entity names as well. I even tried NER masking / placeholder replacement before translation, but multilingual NER itself becomes a bottleneck. Most NER models only work reliably for a limited set of languages, while my dataset contains 100+ languages, including many low-resource ones. How do production systems usually handle this problem? Are there better multilingual translation models, multilingual NER approaches, or decoding techniques for preserving entities properly? Requirements: - Support for 100+ languages - Runs locally on an RTX GPU - Model size under 7B - English is always the target language. submitted by /u/Illustrious_Age_2792 [link] [留言]

I built a PINN implementation in Python to solve two problems as part of a physics exam project: the damped harmonic oscillator (2nd-order ODE) and the 1D viscid Burgers' equation (nonlinear PDE). Both forward and inverse problems (to estimate unknown equation parameters from data) are implemented for each problem. The repo includes source code, sample outputs, and the written exam report (PDF). Beyond the standard PINN training setup, I ran a comparison against non-physics-informed baselines and specifically investigated extrapolation behavior, i.e. how well the models generalize outside the training domain, and finally made statistical analyses of the parameter estimation performance. GitHub: https://github.com/desdb6/pinn-dho-burgers Ready-to-run demo scripts are included, and the modules are structured to be importable so you can write your own training scripts for more customization. This is not novel research, just a clean student implementation, but hopefully useful to others learning about PINNs.

Google I/O made it official: AI-generated answers are now front and center in search, and most brands have almost no visibility into how AI is describing them to their customers. For anyone who has spent years building a strategy around 10 blue links, the rules just changed in a pretty significant way. On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Rebecca […]

If you've ever tried to pick an STT vendor for a phone-based voice agent or call center product, you've probably hit this wall: you have plenty of real production audio, but it's unlabeled, so you can't compute WER on it. And the annotated public datasets (FLEURS, CommonVoice, LibriSpeech) are clean studio recordings that have nothing to do with how STT models actually handle your G.711 encoded noisy phone calls. Annotating production audio is slow, expensive, and usually a privacy headache. So most teams end up benchmarking on clean data, picking a vendor, then discovering in prod which one actually survives noise. noisekit fills that gap. Take a clean annotated dataset, apply degradations that approximate your production conditions, end up with a noisy annotated corpus you can run WER on across every STT candidate. uvx noisekit generate \ --dataset google/fleurs --config en_us --split test \ --samples 100 \ --output ./noisy-fleurs Feed ./noisy-fleurs through each STT candidate, normalize, and compute WER with the existing transcripts. The output is HuggingFace AudioFolder-compatible, so load_dataset("audiofolder", data_dir="./noisy-fleurs") works. Presets cover the conditions that actually matter for voice products: telecom: G.711 narrowband bandpass + 8-bit BitCrush + 16-32 kbps MP3 (sounds like a real phone call, not a synthetic low-pass filter) noise: real ambient mixed at 5-15 dB SNR (auto-downloads a MUSAN noise-only subset, or bring your own --noise-dir matching your domain: call center, cafe, car, street) reverb: pyroomacoustics far-field at 1-3 m mic distance low_bitrate: wideband MP3 at 16-32 kbps clipping: ADC / mic saturation clean_reference: control / WER floor compound chains stack realistically. noise_telecom = noisy room then phone codec, which is what an actual support call sounds like. Each output gets PESQ, SNR and NISQA scores in metadata.jsonl alongside the original transcript, so you can correlate WER with measured signal quality after the fac

Vision Transformers waste 90% of their compute recalculating stationary asphalt. NeuroFlow tracks semantic surprise in embedding space, physically eliminating background tokens before the encoder. Result: 55.8x wall-clock speedup for ViTs on high-res video (1792p) with 97% fidelity. No fine-tuning required. NeuroFlow is a dynamic routing framework for Vision Transformer video inference. It exploits temporal redundancy by tracking per-patch semantic surprise via an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of patch-level embeddings, effectively answering the architectural mismatch between O(N2) self-attention and highly redundant natural video streams. Key Contributions Architecture C (Dual-Memory Reconstruction): A completely training-free inference engine that combines a Layer 0 Retinal Gate with a Layer 12 Cortical Cache. It achieves 71.55% zero-shot top-1 accuracy at 84.0% token sparsity on SigLIP, retaining 92.4% of dense accuracy without modifying any weights. Architecture B (Extreme Wall-Clock Speedup): Physically eliminates stationary tokens before the encoder. With sparse manifold distillation, it reduces 1792p SigLIP 2 inference from 678 ms to 11.9 ms—a 55.80× wall-clock speedup at 97.37% embedding fidelity. LLM Ablation: Characterises the architectural boundaries of applying similarity-gated bypass to autoregressive language models (Phi-3-mini), demonstrating 0% token drift in syntactically constrained generation.
