Weekly paper review, coding project, or random discussion

In our last meetup, we reviewed the "Efficient Memory Management for Large Language Model Serving with PagedAttention" paper (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.06180). This week we will be diving in the code behind the paper. The vLLM server. We will do some hands experiments, look at the source code of the current implementation and, time permitting, we will see how the performance compares to the multidecode algorithm.

Every week we meet (virtually) and discuss the most interesting topics in AI, ML and Deep Learning.
We usually rotate weeks so that every other week one of the members presents a deep learning/machine learning paper, frequently paired with a video explaining the concepts. In the off weeks, we present information about different projects. We cover computer vision, language (LLM's), health/hard science and generative models (Diffusion, GAN's etc.).
People of all levels of skill are welcome--from newbies to machine learning, to PhD's in DL/ML/AI.
We have been meeting for over 6 years weekly and have developed a neat pace and community--and all are welcome. Come join us and stay abreast of the biggest topics in Artificial Intelligence.
