Collection of python packages for NeuroPyschology

Introduction:

Recently I have started to gain a bit of interest in the field of neuropsychology. And for the same reason, I have begun a summary of python models and packages available for doing some standard actions in the field.

(1) autoreject:

autoreject is a package to automatically reject bad/ erroneous M/EEG data. If I examine it, I will give a better details.

(2) Drift diffusion package:

This is a package written for a computation model called drift diffusion model which is often used in cognitive neuroscience and psychology. If I examine it, I will give a better details.

(3) Fieldtrip toolbox converter:

This is a toolbox used to convert MEG and EEG data of different format from fieldtrip toolbox to MNE toolbox in python. I will update on further examination.

(4) MNE:

This is the main MNE toolbox in python. This is used for all head modeling related analysis and stuff in python. I will definitely go through analyzing this. This is a notingly relevant resource for head modeling which I plan to go through before using MNE.

This is definitely a work in progress post. Just updating as these resources are not easily available. Subscribe or mail me in shyambhu20@gmail.com to get future updates on this post.

Tinder bio generation with OpenAI GPT-3 API

Introduction: Recently I got access to OpenAI API beta. After a few simple experiments, I set on creating a simple test project. In this project, I will try to create good tinder bio for a specific person. The abc of openai API playground: In the OpenAI API playground, you get a prompt, and then you can write instructions or specific text to trigger a response from the gpt-3 models. There are also a number of preset templates which loads a specific kind of prompt and let's you generate pre-prepared results. What are the models available? There are 4 models which are stable. These are: (1) curie (2) babbage (3) ada (4) da-vinci da-vinci is the strongest of them all and can perform all downstream tasks which other models can do. There are 2 other new models which openai introduced this year (2021) named da-vinci-instruct-beta and curie-instruct-beta. These instruction models are specifically built for taking in instructions. As OpenAI blog explains and also you will see in our

Can we write codes automatically with GPT-3?

Introduction: OpenAI created and released the first versions of GPT-3 back in 2021 beginning. We wrote a few text generation articles that time and tested how to create tinder bio using GPT-3 . If you are interested to know more on what is GPT-3 or what is openai, how the server look, then read the tinder bio article. In this article, we will explore Code generation with OpenAI models. It has been noted already in multiple blogs and exploration work, that GPT-3 can even solve leetcode problems. We will try to explore how good the OpenAI model can "code" and whether prompt tuning will improve or change those performances. Basic coding: We will try to see a few data structure coding performance by GPT-3. (a) Merge sort with python: First with 200 words limit, it couldn't complete the Write sample code for merge sort in python. def merge(arr, l, m, r): n1 = m - l + 1 n2 = r- m # create temp arrays L = [0] * (n1) R = [0] * (n

What is Bort?

Introduction: Bort, is the new and more optimized version of BERT; which came out this october from amazon science. I came to know about it today while parsing amazon science's news on facebook about bort. So Bort is the newest addition to the long list of great LM models with extra-ordinary achievements. Why is Bort important? Bort, is a model of 5.5% effective and 16% total size of the original BERT model; and is 20x faster than BERT, while being able to surpass the BERT model in 20 out of 23 tasks; to quote the abstract of the paper, ' it obtains performance improvements of between 0 . 3% and 31%, absolute, with respect to BERT-large, on multiple public natural language understanding (NLU) benchmarks. ' So what made this achievement possible? The main idea behind creation of Bort is to go beyond the shallow depth of weight pruning, connection deletion or merely factoring the NN into different matrix factorizations and thus distilling it. While methods like knowle
