In recent times, Large Language Models (LLMs) have earned the attention of the world. OpenAI’s infamous generative LLM, ChatGPT, became the fastest-growing consumer application in history in only two months–and the feverish interest around LLMs continues to grow. Large self-supervised (pre-trained) models (such as LLMs) have transformed various data-driven fields, such as natural language processing (NLP). In this course, students will gain a thorough introduction to self-supervised learning techniques for NLP applications. Through lectures, assignments, and a final project, students will learn the necessary skills to design, implement, and analyze their own self-supervised neural network models using the PyTorch framework.
