The book offers a visually educational approach, making complex concepts accessible. It covers the architecture of Transformer language models, which excel at text generation and representation. Readers will learn to build advanced LLM pipelines for text document clustering and topic exploration. Additionally, the book provides guidance on creating semantic search engines that surpass traditional keyword search, employing methods like dense retrieval and rerankers.
Generative models are explored in depth, from prompt engineering to retrieval-augmented generation. The book also addresses training and optimizing LLMs for specific applications through techniques like generative model fine-tuning, contrastive fine-tuning, and in-context learning.
Published by O'Reilly Media, this first edition book is set to release on October 15, 2024. It spans 425 pages and measures 7 x 0.87 x 9.19 inches. Hands-On Large Language Models is an essential resource for anyone looking to harness the power of AI in language understanding and generation.
