NVIDIA and the University of Maryland Researchers Released Audio Flamingo Next (AF-Next): A Super Powerful and Open Large Audio-Language Model

Understanding audio has always been the multimodal frontier that lags behind vision. While image-language models have rapidly scaled toward real-world deployment, building open models that robustly reason over speech, environmental sounds, and music — especially at length — has remained quite hard. NVIDIA and the University of Maryland researchers are now taking a direct swing

A Step-by-Step Coding Tutorial on NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo: Darcy Flow, FNOs, PINNs, Surrogate Models, and Inference Benchmarking

In this tutorial, we implement NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo on Colab and build a practical workflow for physics-informed machine learning. We start by setting up the environment, generating data for the 2D Darcy Flow problem, and visualizing the physical fields to clearly understand the learning task. From there, we implement and train powerful models such as the
