3LC – Illuminate the ML Black Box
Hello HackerNews, I am Paul, and I would like to get some feedback on the tool we are releasing as beta today. 3LC is an ML tool that gives detailed insights, real-time data-centric iterative workflows for training/finetuning, and data quality improvements for your Machine Learning datasets and models. 3LC serves as a visualizer, editor, and debugger, focusing on how models learn from the training data. Key Features of 3LC: • Detailed Data Analysis: 3LC enables users to dive into model performance beyond typical labeling errors. It offers the capability to analyze intricate false…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hello HackerNews, I am Paul, and I would like to get some feedback on the tool we are releasing as beta today. 3LC is an ML tool that gives detailed insights, real-time data-centric iterative workflows for training/finetuning, and data quality improvements for your Machine Learning datasets and models. 3LC serves as a visualizer, editor, and debugger, focusing on how models learn from the training data. Key Features of 3LC: • Detailed Data Analysis: 3LC enables users to dive into model performance beyond typical labeling errors. It offers the capability to analyze intricate false positives, track embedding-space dynamics, and perform interactive metrics analysis on a per-sample, per-epoch basis. • Real-Time Visualization: Users can visualize every data point immediately after training in our Dashboard; create interactive 2D/3D plots, real-time filter outliers, and find correlations in the metrics recorded. All results are visualized and linked to the underlying original data. • Interactive Data Editing: At its core, 3LC allows for on-the-fly modifications of training data. Users can, for example, adjust bounding boxes in image datasets or change sample weights based on their trajectories in embedding space, directly influencing subsequent training rounds. • Seamless Integration: 3LC can integrate into existing PyTorch training scripts without significantly changing your established workflow. It operates within any system setup, be it locally on your laptop, on-prem HPC, or at your favorite cloud provider. • Non-Intrusive Data Revisions: 3LC's data modifications are sparse and without duplicating or relocating data. No upload of data to a SaaS solution! We have tried to make 3LC as minimally intrusive as possible – enabling full data-centric workflows wherever you run your training or finetuning. Why This Matters: We have designed 3LC to provide insights into the Machine Learning workflows not often visible in traditional setups. The aim is, of course, to help produce more accurate ML models, but we have also seen users able to reduce both their model and training dataset sizes while improving their accuracy. This first release is aimed at the Computer Vision domain. However, we are hard at work on UI improvements and integrations to support LLM finetuning. To integrate 3LC into your projects, you can start with a simple installation: pip install 3lc or visit https://pypi.org/project/3lc For further details and documentation, visit https://docs.3lc.ai We welcome feedback from the HackerNews community to help us improve and develop 3LC further. Thank you for your time!

Hi HN! I’m Alex from Parabola (https://parabola.io). Parabola is a visual programming tool for creating functional data flows that everyone can use. It’s entirely drag-and-drop, handles data sizes much larger than a traditional spreadsheet, calculates everything live, and can run your flows on a schedule of your choosing. I used to work in strategy consulting, doing data analytics for SMBs and Fortune 500 companies. The amount of time wasted on menial tasks was astounding. Things like cleaning data, generating custom reports, creating human workflows to solve shortcomings in third…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
