About Me
Hi, I'm Jérémie Mabiala. I studied math, and that led me to machine learning.
I'm doing a master's in machine intelligence (AMMI) at AIMS Senegal. Before that, I got a master's in mathematical sciences from Stellenbosch University and AIMS South Africa. I like ML theory, NLP, computer vision, optimization, and LLMs and their applications. More broadly, I'm curious about almost anything in AI and math.
I used to teach lab sessions in math and computer science at the University of Kinshasa. Now I help run Python, PyTorch, and machine learning bootcamps at AIMS Senegal. Teaching something is how I really learn it.
I also do freelance software development...

Did you know? A linear SVM classifier is really just a hyperplane splitting your text vectors — and the margin is exactly a distance formula in disguise.
