Omnipresenton Sample cloud-native application with microservices

Tried grpc's in a production application where one microservice had to make over a million grpc connections to another microservice. We experienced ton of memory leaks and switched over to http/json which has been working well. Implementation was done in Scalla, Akka. Curious to know if others have had similar experiences or if there is another best practice with grpc's that we're missing.

Omnipresenton Image text recognition APIs showdown

Does google cloud vision use deep learning to build their image text recognition?

That would be fantastic. Thanks!

Omnipresenton Using CNNs for Handbag Brand and Color Detection

I don't quite understand the object localization piece of the article. Are there other resources on this topic that explain how do do the same thing (object localization). Or tutorials/examples on this topic?

Omnipresenton Object Detection with Open Images using Tensorflow

On this demo image [0], why isn't "text" found as well since there is clearly text in the image. Is it because "text" isn't considered an object? If so, what would it take (based on your article) to also train for text?

Thanks!

Since this article is very high level, are there other resources that show how to apply some (or all) of these topics in actual code or on a sample set of data?

This so so helpful. It would take me months to gather resources to learn this stuff and I wouldn't even know what I would be looking for. To the author: please share more content if your valuable time permits

Can you please explain some real world use cases you're thinking about?

Omnipresenton Show HN: Deep learning visual search and data analytics

This is phenomenal. Is the primary use case for this to:

- Find similar looking frames?

Question:

- Does it perform object detection on the frame? Similar to the video demo on Clarifai - https://clarifai.com/demo ?

Omnipresenton Always Free Usage Limits

In addition to making GCP cheaper and easier to try out than AWS, they need developer advocates and available resources using which developers can switch their apps from AWS to GCP. After being a leader in this space for a long time, the main advantage AWS has is the perception of "how easy it is to use"

Omnipresenton 6.S191: Introduction to Deep Learning

I don't have a dataset at the moment. I would have to build one. I was thinking of about 200 images in the dataset with 100 of text and 100 of non text. Would that be big enough dataset for transfer learning? Please let me know if there is a dataset you know of that I could leverage

I'll follow that tutorial. Thanks!

Omnipresenton 6.S191: Introduction to Deep Learning

I'm very interested in these lectures and am looking forward to digging into it.

I was wondering if you could provide some feedback on whether deep learning would be useful in classifying images that have text or not. For example, looking at a set of images I wish to classify the ones that have text and the ones that don't have text. A dataset could be like this:

text: http://bit.ly/2k0IXPv http://imgur.com/SvyoEo9 http://imgur.com/mu7vHRa

no text: http://bit.ly/2kUt1wA http://bit.ly/2ku4eSh

Thanks for organizing this.
