LSTM Intermediate

An RNN variant using gates to mitigate vanishing gradients and capture longer context.

Foundations & Theory
Positional Encoding Intermediate

Injects sequence order into Transformers, since attention alone is permutation-invariant.

Foundations & Theory
Large Language Model Intermediate

A high-capacity language model trained on massive corpora, exhibiting broad generalization and emergent behaviors.

Large Language Models
Masked Language Model Intermediate

Predicts masked tokens in a sequence, enabling bidirectional context; often used for embeddings rather than generation.

Foundations & Theory
Context Window Intermediate

Maximum number of tokens the model can attend to in one forward pass; constrains long-document reasoning.

Transformers & LLMs
Prompt Intermediate

The text (and possibly other modalities) given to an LLM to condition its output behavior.

Prompting & Instructions
Tool Use Intermediate

Letting an LLM call external functions/APIs to fetch data, compute, or take actions, improving reliability.

Agents & Autonomy
RAG Intermediate

Architecture that retrieves relevant documents (e.g., from a vector DB) and conditions generation on them to reduce hallucinations.

Foundations & Theory
Vector Database Intermediate

A datastore optimized for similarity search over embeddings, enabling semantic retrieval at scale.

Large Language Models
Reward Model Intermediate

Model trained to predict human preferences (or utility) for candidate outputs; used in RLHF-style pipelines.

Foundations & Theory
A/B Testing Intermediate

Controlled experiment comparing variants by random assignment to estimate causal effects of changes.

Foundations & Theory
Curriculum Learning Intermediate

Ordering training samples from easier to harder to improve convergence or generalization.

Foundations & Theory
Synthetic Data Intermediate

Artificially created data used to train/test models; helpful for privacy and coverage, risky if unrealistic.

Foundations & Theory
Model Registry Intermediate

Central system to store model versions, metadata, approvals, and deployment state.

Foundations & Theory
Beam Search Intermediate

Search algorithm for generation that keeps top-k partial sequences; can improve likelihood but reduce diversity.

Foundations & Theory
Logits Intermediate

Raw model outputs before converting to probabilities; manipulated during decoding and calibration.

Foundations & Theory
Model Stealing Intermediate

Reconstructing a model or its capabilities via API queries or leaked artifacts.

Foundations & Theory
Function Calling Intermediate

Constraining model outputs into a schema used to call external APIs/tools safely and deterministically.

Foundations & Theory
Planning Intermediate

Methods for breaking goals into steps; can be classical (A*, STRIPS) or LLM-driven with tool calls.

Foundations & Theory
Multimodal Model Intermediate

Models that process or generate multiple modalities, enabling vision-language tasks, speech, video understanding, etc.

Foundations & Theory
NLP Intermediate

AI subfield dealing with understanding and generating human language, including syntax, semantics, and pragmatics.

Foundations & Theory
Gradient Clipping Intermediate

Limiting gradient magnitude to prevent exploding gradients.

AI Economics & Strategy
Inductive Bias Intermediate

Built-in assumptions guiding learning efficiency and generalization.

AI Economics & Strategy
Causal Mask Intermediate

Prevents attention to future tokens during training/inference.

AI Economics & Strategy
Attention Head Intermediate

A single attention mechanism within multi-head attention.

AI Economics & Strategy
Absolute Positional Encoding Intermediate

Encodes token position explicitly, often via sinusoids.

AI Economics & Strategy
Mixture of Experts Intermediate

Routes inputs to subsets of parameters for scalable capacity.

AI Economics & Strategy
Policy Intermediate

Strategy mapping states to actions.

AI Economics & Strategy
Q-Function Intermediate

Expected return of taking action in a state.

AI Economics & Strategy
Memory Augmentation Intermediate

Extending agents with long-term memory stores.
