Hello MATLAB Central community,
My name is Yann. And I love MATLAB. I also love Python ... 🐍 (I know, not the place for that).
I recently decided to go down the rabbit hole of AI. So I started benchmarking deep learning frameworks on basic examples. Here is a recording of my experiment:
Happy to engage in the debate. What do you think?
Large Language Models (LLMs) with MATLAB was updated again today to support the newly released OpenAI models GPT-5, GPT-5 mini, GPT-5 nano, GPT-5 chat, o3, and o4-mini. When you create an openAIChat object, set the ModelName name-value argument to "gpt-5", "gpt-5-mini", "gpt-5-nano", "gpt-5-chat-latest", "o4-mini", or "o3".
This is version 4.4.0 of this free MATLAB add-on that lets you interact with LLMs on MATLAB. The release notes are at Release v4.4.0: Support for GPT-5, o3, o4-mini · matlab-deep-learning/llms-with-matlab
Hey cody fellows :-) !
I recently created two problem groups, but as you can see I struggle to set their cover images :
What is weird given :
- I already did it successfully twice in the past for my previous groups ;
- If you take one problem specifically, Problem 60984. Mesh the icosahedron for instance, you can normally see the icon of the cover image in the top right hand corner, can't you ?
- I always manage to set cover images to my contributions (mostly in the filexchange).
I already tried several image formats, included .png 4/3 ratio, but still the cover images don't set.
Could you please help me to correctly set my cover images ?
Thank you.
Nicolas
Hi everyone,
Please check out our new book "Generative AI for Trading and Asset Management".
GenAI is usually associated with large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, or with image generation tools like MidJourney, essentially, machines that can learn from text or images and generate text or images. But in reality, these models can learn from many different types of data. In particular, they can learn from time series of asset returns, which is perhaps the most relevant for asset managers.
In our book (amazon.com link), we explore both the practical applications and the fundamental principles of GenAI, with a special focus on how these technologies apply to trading and asset management.
The book is divided into two broad parts:
Part 1 is written by Ernie Chan, noted author of Quantitative Trading, Algorithmic Trading, and Machine Trading. It starts with no-code applications of GenAI for traders and asset managers with little or no coding experience. After that, it takes readers on a whirlwind tour of machine learning techniques commonly used in finance.
Part 2, written by Hamlet, covers the fundamentals and technical details of GenAI, from modeling to efficient inference. This part is for those who want to understand the inner workings of these models and how to adapt them to their own custom data and applications. It’s for anyone who wants to go beyond the high-level use cases, get their hands dirty, and apply, and eventually improve these models in real-world practical applications.
Readers can start with whichever part they want to explore and learn from.
I am deeply honored to announce the official publication of my latest academic volume:

🧠 Let us advance the discipline together through precision, programming, and purpose.
I like this problem by James and have solved it in several ways. A solution by Natalie impressed me and introduced me to a new function conv2. However, it occured to me that the numerous test for the problem only cover cases of square matrices. My original solutions, and Natalie's, did niot work on rectangular matrices. I have now produced a solution which works on rectangular matrices. Thanks for this thought provoking problem James.
Large Languge model with MATLAB, a free add-on that lets you access LLMs from OpenAI, Azure, amd Ollama (to use local models) on MATLAB, has been updated to support OpenAI GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1 mini, and GPT-4.1 nano.
According to OpenAI, "These models outperform GPT‑4o and GPT‑4o mini across the board, with major gains in coding and instruction following. They also have larger context windows—supporting up to 1 million tokens of context—and are able to better use that context with improved long-context comprehension."

I have written, tested, and prepared a function with four subsunctions on my computer for solving one of the problems in the list of Cody problems in MathWorks in three days. Today, when I wanted to upload or copy paste the codes of the function and its subfunctions to the specified place of the problem of Cody page, I do not see a place to upload it, and the ability to copy past the codes. The total of the entire codes and their documentations is about 600 lines, which means that I cannot and it is not worth it to retype all of them in the relevent Cody environment after spending a few days. I would appreciate your guidance on how to enter the prepared codes to the desired environment in Cody.

You've probably heard about the DeepSeek AI models by now. Did you know you can run them on your own machine (assuming its powerful enough) and interact with them on MATLAB?
In my latest blog post, I install and run one of the smaller models and start playing with it using MATLAB.
Larger models wouldn't be any different to use assuming you have a big enough machine...and for the largest models you'll need a HUGE machine!
Even tiny models, like the 1.5 billion parameter one I demonstrate in the blog post, can be used to demonstrate and teach things about LLM-based technologies.
Have a play. Let me know what you think.
