Building Multimodal RAG Application #5: Multimodal Retrieval from Vector Stores ➡ Link: https://lnkd.in/dSz6SXZ9 Multimodal RAG combines textual and visual data to enrich the retrieval process, enhancing large language models’ ability to generate more contextually accurate and detailed responses by accessing multiple data types. This article, the fifth in an ongoing series on building Multimodal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) applications, dives into the essentials of setting up multimodal retrieval using vector stores. Starting with environment setup, this guide covers installing and configuring the LanceDB vector database, a robust solution for managing and querying multimodal data. Next, it demonstrates how to ingest both text and image data into LanceDB using LangChain, a popular framework for managing LLM workflows. The article concludes with a practical walkthrough of performing multimodal retrieval, enabling efficient searches across both text and image data, which can significantly enhance RAG applications by leveraging rich, diverse information sources. ➡ Do not miss the 60% discount on To Data & Beyond yearly subscription: https://lnkd.in/gmwFUqYr ➡ Check out To Data & Beyond's new ebook: LLM Roadmap from Beginner to Advanced Level: https://lnkd.in/dp7_CssN

Latest newsletter on To Data & Beyond by Youssef Hosni: Instruction Fine-Tuning LLM using SFT for Financial Sentiment: A Step-by-Step Guide ➡Link: https://lnkd.in/gJrgzZQT Instruction fine-tuning allows large language models (LLMs) to be adapted for specific tasks by guiding them with clear, task-oriented instructions. In this article, we focus on fine-tuning the facebook/opt-1.3b model for financial sentiment analysis using Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT). The process begins with setting up the environment and loading a financial dataset from Deep Lake, followed by the initialization of the model and training configuration. We also explore how LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) can be combined with the OPT model to make the fine-tuning process more efficient. Finally, we demonstrate how to run inference, applying the fine-tuned model to real-world financial data. This guide will be helpful for machine learning practitioners, data scientists, and developers who want to fine-tune large language models for domain-specific applications, especially in finance. Whether you’re new to model fine-tuning or looking for a hands-on approach to adapting models for sentiment analysis, this article covers the essential steps. ➡ Do not miss the 60% discount on To Data & Beyond yearly subscription: https://lnkd.in/gmwFUqYr ➡ Check out To Data & Beyond new ebook: LLM Roadmap from Beginner to Advanced Level: https://lnkd.in/dp7_CssN
