PROFILE
Edward Mascarenhas
Worked on the HabanaAI/optimum-habana-fork repository, focusing on deep learning model optimization and integration using Python and PyTorch. Delivered a training configuration update that reduced the number of epochs to improve perplexity in targeted scenarios, enabling higher model quality under constrained compute budgets. Added support for the Siglip and Llava Onevision models, updating model configurations, generation utilities, and Gaudi-specific code paths. Addressed a critical bug by refining inputs_embeds cloning behavior, ensuring it runs only during training to prevent gradient issues and optimize inference performance. Documented all changes to support reproducibility and provided updated usage guidance for Gaudi deployments.
