Reading the Mind of an LLMPyData London 20262026-06-05
Claims that mechanistic interpretability can locate and manipulate feature directions inside real LLMs — using sparse dictionary learning, circuit tracing and…

LLM Inference ArithmeticsPyData London 20252025-06-06
Explains how parameter counts map to VRAM and compute so numbers mean something: Gemma 2B is closer to a 3B as a parameter-vs-storage example, a 7B model…

Foundational Models for Time Series Forecasting: are we there yet?PyCon Italia 20252025-05-28
Explains that transformer-based foundational forecasters are promising but data-limited: teams adapt T5-style and decoder transformers, bin or patch continuous…

LLM Inference Arithmetics: the Theory behind Model ServingPyCon DE & PyData 20252025-04-23
Argues that transformer inference is inherently serial while training is parallel, so training needs ~3× the FLOPs of inference and attention compute scales…

Foundational Models for Time Series Forecasting: are we there yet?PyData Global 20242024-12-03
Transformers get repurposed for forecasting by quantize to discrete tokens (Chronos uses GPT‑2/T5 with mean scaling and binning) or by patching continuous…
Talk on
Uncertainty estimation at scale with functimePyData London 20242024-06-14
functime claims to produce prediction intervals for thousands of series locally by combining Polars-powered feature extraction and cross‑validation that runs…
Talk on
Embeddings, Transformers, RLHF: Three key ideas to understand ChatGPTPyCon Italia 20242024-05-22
Explains that large language models first learn dense embeddings (word vectors from Word2Vec-style masked learning) that let arithmetic-like analogies emerge…
Talk on
functime: a next generation ML forecasting library powered by PolarsPyCon Italia 20242024-05-22
functime is a Python library that trains a single estimator across a panel to forecast thousands of time series on a laptop by using Polars (Rust + Rayon) for…

How I used Polars to build built functime, a next gen ML forecasting libraryPyData Global 20232023-12-06
Claims a concrete speedup: feature engineering runs 1-2 orders of magnitude faster using Polars; batch inference and scaling happen without PySpark. Presents…

Rust is easyPyCon Italia 20232023-05-25
Claim: Rust is easy if you trust the compiler. The demo installs and uses rustup and cargo, edits in Vim with rust-analyzer and Copilot disabled, drops a…
Talk on
Is the great dataframe showdown finally over? Enter: polarsPyCon Italia 20232023-05-25
Polars claims multi threaded, Arrow based execution with a query planner that does predicate pushdown and lazy scan to lazy frame streaming so users can…
