Are you looking for examples using the multipledispatch library, or 
multiple dispatch in general?

As for multiple dispatch in general, Numba uses something which is 
morally one in order to select the right specialization of, say, an 
operator (for example to choose amongst '+ between int and int', '+ 
between numpy.datetime64 and numpy.timedelta64', '+ between 
numpy.timedelta64 and numpy.timedelta64', etc.).
