I am so excited to announce that I have a new book (in collaboration with Packt) that has just been launched, written with my co-author, the wonderful Matt Jackson. This books takes you from a nascent understanding of graph data science methods to a more confident user, all in under 250 ...

I recently did a great talk at Leeds Data Science, where I presented how to fine tune a Stable Diffusion model, using Google’s Dreambooth method, to fine tune the model to create interesting image concepts for generation. This was well received (see: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jumping-rivers-ltd_meetup-datascience-imagerecognition-activity-7067151517916549120...

This post will use an old image of my house before I bought it, and remodelled the living room, to see how this model could be used to make suggestions on how it could be further remodelled. We will be using a suite of pre-trained ControlNet models, trained on hours ...

HuggingFace have been working on a model that can be used for small datasets. The aim is to leverage the pretrained transformer and use contrastive learning to augment and extend the dataset, by using similar labels that share a same dimensional space. In this tutorial I will talk you through ...

My family had the experience of going to the Norwegian Fjords in May 2022 and I took some great pictures on my new camera. Well now I have created a stable diffusion model that allows you to generate images of your own and get them to work with the Norweigen Fjord ...

This combines my love of Deep Learning and Transformer frameworks, with the ability to generate images from textual prompts. First of all I think I should explain a little of what is meant by stable diffusion, and this will be detailed in the next section. Then we will move on ...

The supporting repository and code file is: https://github.com/StatsGary/PyHacks-Tutorials/blob/main/28_defaultdict.py. This is aimed as a short article to explain why you would want to use default dictionaries. What is a defaultdict I hear you ask? A defaultdict is a container like dictionary present in ...
