# Introduction
In Python, there is a concept called object-oriented programming (OOP). This programming paradigm revolves around data and objects. It works by encapsulating related state (attributes) and behavior (methods) within classes, and creating object instances from those classes.
For many data scientists, Python is the first programming language they…
IBM has released Granite-Docling-258M, an open-source (Apache-2.0) vision-language model designed specifically for end-to-end document conversion. The model targets layout-faithful extraction—tables, code, equations, lists, captions, and reading order—emitting a structured, machine-readable representation rather than lossy Markdown. It is available on Hugging Face with a live demo and MLX build for Apple Silicon.
What’s new compared to…

Can a single AI stack plan like a researcher, reason over scenes, and transfer motions across different robots—without retraining from scratch? Google DeepMind’s Gemini Robotics 1.5 says yes, by splitting embodied intelligence into two models: Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 for high-level embodied reasoning (spatial understanding, planning, progress/success estimation, tool-use) and Gemini Robotics 1.5 for low-level visuomotor…

# Introduction
Data engineering involves processing large datasets, building ETL pipelines, and maintaining data quality. Data engineers work with streaming data, monitor system performance, handle schema changes, and ensure data consistency across distributed systems.
Python one-liners can help simplify these tasks by condensing complex operations into single, readable…
In this tutorial, we explore advanced computer vision techniques using TorchVision’s v2 transforms, modern augmentation strategies, and powerful training enhancements. We walk through the process of building an augmentation pipeline, applying MixUp and CutMix, designing a modern CNN with attention, and implementing a robust training loop. By running everything seamlessly in Google Colab, we position…
We’re expanding our risk domains and refining our risk assessment process. AI breakthroughs are transforming our everyday lives, from advancing mathematics, biology and astronomy to realizing the potential of personalized education. As we build increasingly powerful AI models, we’re committed to responsibly developing our technologies and taking an evidence-based approach to staying ahead of emerging…
In this tutorial, we walk step by step through using Hugging Face’s LeRobot library to train and evaluate a behavior-cloning policy on the PushT dataset. We begin by setting up the environment in Google Colab, installing the required dependencies, and loading the dataset through LeRobot’s unified API. We then design a compact visuomotor policy that…
Computer vision moved fast in 2025: new multimodal backbones, larger open datasets, and tighter model–systems integration. Practitioners need sources that publish rigorously, link code and benchmarks, and track deployment patterns—not marketing posts. This list prioritizes primary research hubs, lab blogs, and production-oriented engineering outlets with consistent update cadence. Use it to monitor SOTA shifts, grab…
Our new method could help mathematicians leverage AI techniques to tackle long-standing challenges in mathematics, physics and engineering. For centuries, mathematicians have developed complex equations to describe the fundamental physics involved in fluid dynamics. These laws govern everything from the swirling vortex of a hurricane to airflow lifting an airplane’s wing. Experts can carefully craft…
