How BM25 and RAG Retrieve Information Differently?
When you type a query into a search engine, something has to decide which documents are actually relevant — and how to rank them. BM25 (Best Matching 25), the algorithm powering search engines like Elasticsearch and Lucene, has been the dominant answer to that question for decades. It scores documents by looking at three things: […] The post How BM25 and RAG Retrieve Information Differently? appeared first on MarkTechPost.

Nemotron super 120b on strix halo
Nemotron super 120b is out and I had a bit of trouble getting it running on my strix halo and llama.cpp due to a tensor shape error. I realize I may just be a dumbass and everyone else may have figured this out with no issues, but I wanted to post this in case someone else ran into problems. I have an AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 (Strix Halo), 128GB LPDDR5x unified memory, Radeon 8060S iGPU (gfx1151) Model: Nemotron 3 Super 120B-A12B - 120B parameters (12B active per inference), 1M native context, h

Implementing Deep Q-Learning (DQN) from Scratch Using RLax JAX Haiku and Optax to Train a CartPole Reinforcement Learning Agent
In this tutorial, we implement a reinforcement learning agent using RLax, a research-oriented library developed by Google DeepMind for building reinforcement learning algorithms with JAX. We combine RLax with JAX, Haiku, and Optax to construct a Deep Q-Learning (DQN) agent that learns to solve the CartPole environment. Instead of using a fully packaged RL framework, […] The post Implementing Deep Q-Learning (DQN) from Scratch Using RLax JAX Haiku and Optax to Train a CartPole Reinforcement Learning Agent appeared first on MarkTechPost.

Meet GitAgent: The Docker for AI Agents that is Finally Solving the Fragmentation between LangChain, AutoGen, and Claude Code
The current state of AI agent development is characterized by significant architectural fragmentation. Software devs building autonomous systems must generally commit to one of several competing ecosystems: LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, OpenAI Assistants, or the more recent Claude Code. Each of these ‘Five Frameworks’ utilizes a proprietary method for defining agent logic, memory persistence, and tool […] The post Meet GitAgent: The Docker for AI Agents that is Finally Solving the Fragmentation between LangChain, AutoGen, and Claude Code appeared first on MarkTechPost.
