EARL: Efficient Agentic Reinforcement Learning Systems for Large Language Models
Zheyue Tan, Mustapha Abdullahi, Tuo Shi +5
Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a pivotal component of large language model (LLM) post-training, and agentic RL extends this paradigm to operate as agents through multi-turn…
Evaluating Deep Learning Models for African Wildlife Image Classification: From DenseNet to Vision Transformers
Lukman Jibril Aliyu, Umar Sani Muhammad, Bilqisu Ismail +5
Wildlife populations in Africa face severe threats, with vertebrate numbers declining by over 65% in the past five decades. In response, image classification using deep learning ha…
