LangGraph Tutorial: Understanding Concepts, Functionalities, and Project Implementation

LangGraph Tutorial LangGraph Tutorial: Understanding Concepts, Functionalities, and Project Implementation Introduction LangGraph is a powerful, open-source library within the LangChain ecosystem designed to build stateful, multi-agent applications with Large Language Models (LLMs). Unlike traditional linear workflows, LangGraph enables the creation of cyclic, graph-based workflows, making it ideal for complex, agent-driven systems that require state management, conditional logic, and human-in-the-loop interactions. This tutorial explains the core concepts of LangGraph, its main functionalities, and demonstrates how to use it in a practical project—a simple customer support chatbot. Core Concepts of LangGraph 1. Graph-Based Architecture LangGraph represents workflows as directed graphs, where: Nodes : Represent individual units of work, such as an LLM call, tool invocation, or data processing function. Edge...

Building AutoML Pipelines: Cloud and Local Solutions

Building AutoML Pipelines: Cloud and Local Solutions Building AutoML Pipelines: Cloud and Local Solutions Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) streamlines model development by automating tasks like data preprocessing, feature engineering, model selection, and hyperparameter tuning. This tutorial covers two approaches: a cloud-based pipeline using Google Cloud AutoML and a local pipeline using AutoKeras. We’ll also clarify why Google Cloud AutoML cannot be run entirely locally and how AutoKeras fills that gap. Why Google Cloud AutoML Requires the Cloud Google Cloud AutoML is a powerful managed service but relies on cloud infrastructure: Architecture : It uses Google Cloud Storage for data and cloud servers for training and model management. APIs : The AutoML client communicates with Google’s servers, not local resources. Limitations : While you can preprocess data or run predictions locally, training and model ...

Activation Functions in Computer Vision

  Tutorial: Activation Functions in Computer Vision Tutorial: Activation Functions in Computer Vision This tutorial explores the primary activation functions used in computer vision tasks, their mathematical formulations, properties, use cases, and differences. We'll include code fragments to demonstrate their implementation and visualize their behavior using a non-linear classification problem (moons dataset). The code uses Python with TensorFlow and NumPy for implementation and Matplotlib for visualization.
