ToshiStats starts the project of MI (Machine intelligence) in 2018

Happy new year everyone!  As a new year starts now, I would like to announce our new project in Toshi Stats.  

This is about "Machine intelligence".  With inputs of images/videos and texts, I would like to do experiments of  "what can computers say in our languages?".  I have been developing our base model to do that. With introducing both images and text at once, our model must be more intelligent than before.  I will update the progress the project on our blog.  Hope you can enjoy the results soon!

Regards  Toshi

"Tensorflow Object Detection API" is introduced as our core framework now

Last week, Google released an awesome tool for anyone who is interested in computer vision and deep learning. It is called "Tensorflow Object Detection API". TOSHI STATS introduces this awesome API as our core computer vision framework.  The image above is one of the results of detection task from the API.

I would like to explain why Object Detection API is awesome

•  It has major classification models.
•  It enables us to  combine classification models with object detection frameworks
•  It can be run locally and on Google Cloud Platform

We will make the most of this API to get insights from images and videos.  See you soon!

"Tensorflow Object Detection API" was released by Google on June 15 2017
