2. Learning Record

2.1 Paper Work

I spent two days finishing the proposal for my project. It was really boring. But preparing the PowerPoint is definitely a good way to organize my thought.

I finished the pitching on the afternoon of Wednesday, September 28th. Unexpectedly, it was peace & love. The teachers asked me questions with kindness instead of judging me.

This activity warned me that I needed to hurry up as most of the other students had finished the majority of their experiments. However, I just finished the preparatory search.

2.2 Learning Attention

I learned how to deploy attention modules from bilibili. The tutorial teaches me to use a 6 G voice dataset, which shocked me. There is no need to download gigabytes of data just for learning attention.

I truncated the data into an about 85 M mini dataset and it worked well. Not only did I have a brief concept of the attention mechanism, but also I found it cool to use tqmd in PyTorch.

3. Feeling

3.1 So So

I have no special feelings this week. I only knew what I learned now was far away from the technique used in updated papers. Consequently, I lost my passion for diving into each code like I used to.
