[EuroPython 2024 — North Hall on 2024-07-11] Scikit-LLM: Beginner Friendly NLP Using LLMs by Iryna Kondrashchenko, Oleh Kostromin https://ep2024.europython.eu/session/scikit-llm-beginner-friendly-nlp-using-llms The instruction following and in-context learning capabilities of LLMs make them suitable for tackling many NLP tasks. In this talk, we will introduce Scikit-LLM: https://github.com/iryna-kondr/scikit-llm, a rapidly growing, beginner-friendly library that abstracts the complexity of working with LLMs by providing a scikit-learn compatible API. We will showcase how Scikit-LLM can be utilized for solving text classification and text-to-text tasks, and will delve deeper into various methods to improve the model performance, such as prompting strategies and fine-tuning. --- This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/
