Some Structures in Transformer Architectures

Representing decoder-only transformers using Kronecker products to reveal interpretable linear algebraic structure and the introducing the phenomenon of superposition in high-dimensional vector spaces.

The Art of Attention

Cool plots created from a dynamical system inspired by self-attention mechanisms.

Stargazr

A modern stargazing assistant that provides personalized recommendations for the best nights to stargaze, combining astronomy, weather, and light pollution data.

Differential Privacy in Federated Learning

Integration of Differential Privacy into a Federated Learning framework using the MIMIC-IV dataset to enhance patient privacy while maintaining model performance.
