I’ve been working for some time with Linux and I feel that sharing some scripts and also tools I frequently use can be helpful. Show File and Folder Size To analyze file size, there are several ways. ls -alh -rw-r--r-- 1 amir amir 270K May 20 2023 Arial.ttf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 72 Sep 20 21:10 Untitled5.ipynb -rw-r--r-- 1 amir amir 1.2M May 26 2023 exp12.mp4 -rw-r--r-- 1 amir amir 4....

I’ve been thinking for some time about this and I want to share my thoughts about it. What are the elements of a deep learning method? If I read a paper in DL world, what questions I should ask to see if I understand the paper properly? This may seem trivial for some people as they intuitively understand it by reading some papers. Specifically, I’ve been reading YOLO-series papers and I always had a question in mind....

I host my hugo website on Netlify but since Netlify services are limited in my country, I have to use cloudflare CDN. Here’s how I do it. Step 1 Configure your website on Netlify like normal. Step 2 Go to Cloudflare Dashboard| Web Performance & Security and Login. Then Click on Add a site. You can then enter your domain name. Choose Free Plan Review your DNS records and just press Continue!...

It is a necessity that anyone should follow some podcasts and blogs for his/her field. ML is not an exception. This is the stuff I find useful, and I try to read or watch them every now and then.

This is one of my tasks which I’ve done when applying to KU-Leuven University at a position (it was later filled by someone else). At that time, I thought getting a Ph.D. is my type. It was later that I’ve understood that I have no interest in following academic pathway and becoming a researcher. But, since I have taken some time (a couple of days) to prepare this research proposal, I think publishing it wouldn’t be a bad idea....

In this explanation, I’ll be discussing methods for achieving interpretability in YOLOv5, a popular object detection model. While there have been several attempts to make YOLOv5 interpretable, it’s worth noting that none of these methods are currently compatible with the latest version of the model. My work is the marriage between PyTorch-GradCAM and YOLOv5.

Yannic Kilcher Yannic is actually one of the brightest people I’ve ever met. He is knowledgeable mostly in NLP and also knows Computer Vision and some Reinforcement Learning. Here’s a list of videos from him which I liked a lot: How I Read a Paper: Facebook’s DETR (Video Tutorial) - YouTube: I recommend this one a lot. I’ve learned a lot from it. Machine Learning PhD Survival Guide 2021 - Advice on Topic Selection, Papers, Conferences & more - YouTube An Image is Worth 16x16 Words: Transformers for Image Recognition at Scale (Paper Explained) - YouTube MLP-Mixer: An all-MLP Architecture for Vision (Machine Learning Research Paper Explained) - YouTube AI Coffee Break with Letitia She is very good at NLP and Transformers....

Introduction I’ve tried many tools and tutorials to sync my obsidian notes between android and windows. They all have the same problems: Some need subscription service (Obsidian Sync) which I’m not willing to pay Some can’t handle editing the same file (Sync via GoogleDrive, Dropbox and …) Others need complicated setup and maintenance. My Solution This solution takes about 30 minutes to setup. But, once it is finished, it works perfectly....

While there are many resources available on optimizing PC performance, I have found that some of them focus on less important or even incorrect details. I say the things that have actually worked for me. The credit for this post mostly belongs to Chris Titus Tech, as I sourced much of the information from his YouTube channel. However, I wanted to compile the key points in one place for easy reference and to ensure that I wouldn’t forget the important information....

Here I want to guide you toward setting a Jekyll website with al-folio template. This is the template I am using for my website and I love it. I have also made some contributions to make it more usable (specially on docker side). You do not need to install Jekyll, Docker, Ruby or even clone the repo in order to build and publish a website. You can do it all online and not even bother installing any of them....
