Large Language Models: From Theory to Production

This book provides a technically rigorous yet accessible guide to Large Language Models (LLMs), charting their evolution from academic research projects into critical infrastructure for industries as diverse as finance, healthcare, and law. It offers readers a strong grounding in the conceptual foundations of machine learning and deep neural networks before moving into the architectures and methods that define today’s LLMs, including Transformers, tokenization strategies, and pre-training d...
