Hello
Here's who I am
and what I do
Versatile AI Engineer with a background in developing deep learning models and deploying AI in products. I authored two open-source libraries — EmbedAnything has over 300,000 downloads and 750 GitHub stars. I hold an MSc. in Artificial Intelligence from Eindhoven University of Technology (Cum Laude) and have six years of prior industry experience spanning machine learning, software development, and engineering.

Optimize VLM Tokens with EmbedAnything and ColPali
ColPali is a late-interaction vision rag model that enables text search within images. It can locate specific pages in PDFs containing relevant text, even when the text exists as part of an image. This powerful capability forms the foundation of Vision RAG systems.
Build ReAct Agents using SLMs from Scratch
Build a function-calling agent using a custom Unsloth model with a LoRA adapter, switching between reasoning and function execution, following ReAct-style reasoning.
Using YOLO with CLIP to improve Retrieval
In this article we explore how object detection can be used with embeddings to make retrieval more better.
