How Computer Vision Works

[@ozzyfromspace]

Building your own computer vision system is, frankly, much more satisfying. And you control every aspect of the technology.

[@mugodavid6997]

Is it possible to come up with a model that will take images of an item and compare that image with an already stored inage of the same in the database?

[@yishayhaz]

easier said than done.

[@brianmaugo8768]

There are some inaccuracies in the video but it does paint the general picture of the computer vision. Some errors: 2:55 low-level patterns (like edges), high-level ones are higher level in the semantical sense so say edges -> circles -> eyes -> head going up the network layer hierarchy. 4:40 temporally sensitive model doesn't have to be RNN it can be say C3D (convolutional 3D model)

[@IgorSwxy]

The outcome of this video: don't dare to understand how computer vision works, just use our API :)

[@Napssamuel]

You make a great point 😅

[@amrith007]

Honestly, Google didn't get the data. Google gave us Google photos with unlimited storage and we uploaded millions of photos from millions of users. You got us free photos backup to we give you billions of photos to analyse.

[@offchan]

Yes, they get photos, but the photos don't have labels. Thus, it's very hard to make smarter algorithms. In traditional settings, you require labels like "person", "cat", etc in order to train the system.

[@offchan]

​@Rizwan Bhatti Slaves is one of the ways to label the data. Sites like MTurk are common for them to find labelers. Many researchers use this website to label their dataset including the famous ImageNet. But you don't have to label all the data. After you have trained the system to predict accurately, you can use the system's prediction to guide labeler to label faster. E.g. given a cat image, the system will predict cat and the labeler only needs to crosscheck if it's wrong or correct. Also they can use the unlabeled data to do unsupervised learning. I know the guys at Google are probably smart so they will know how to utilize the remaining tremendous amount of unlabeled data.

[@MrBemnet1]

@@offchan in deep learning you don't need labels

[@offchan]

@@MrBemnet1 That's wrong. I'm a machine learning engineer. Deep learning still require labels unless you are doing unsupervised learning (which is not that good yet).

[@uditysingh1316]

Yes you are correct

[@benjaminy.]

Thank for your kind explanation. This is one of the best product introduction video that I’ve watched for quite a while. You combined the theory of machine learning - CNN, RNN into your digital products. Keep up the good work. As a novice of machine learning, I hope to learn more from you.

[@micalopes1]

I wanna cry. Amazing explanation 😍👏🏽

[@NeuraSynx]

why?

[@ozzyfromspace]

You know how a little kid might see a cat 🐈 one time and in the future it'll be able to tell that other cats are cats. And one day it sees a dog and can immediately tell that something's different. That's what I'm interested in: how do we cut down the data requirement from billions of examples to just one or two? Imagine a self driving car that could appreciate context in real-time despite not having a really fine tuned Neural net that's based on a crazy amount of brittle test data. That's what I'm working on as the founder of an extremely early, unnamed startup. If we don't need 5 billion examples of cars being driven to do a good job, neither should machines. We need to build machines like babies that see cats running and just "get it". That's the dream.

[@mattcollins5519]

Got a name yet?

[@artinbogdanov7229]

I was thinking about the same. Then I caught myself on the thought that when we see a cat in motion it's equivalent to many images going one after another. If it would be just 1 or 2 images I don't think our brain would be able to recognize it as easily. Especially when we are talking about different breeds and sizes. I'd like to learn about your start-up thought :)

[@Anarchy421]

Part of a child's ability to immediately grasp "cat" from their first encounter has to do with their ability to explore the various features of the cat from different angles, as well as seeing the cat move into different poses. I wonder if it would be possible to have a neural network interact with a photorealistic 3D model of a cat in a virtual setting with the ability to move around and interact, and whether that would reduce the data requirement.

[@willd1mindmind639]

The human eye and brain moves at the speed of light in that during the course of a second, the eye and brain processes many "frames" of data even if nothing changes. Vision in living organisms is all about being able to understand the dimensions, perspectives, shapes, colors and textures of objects in three dimensional space. And during the course of a day, your eyes are constantly taking in those frames which adds up to provide the millions of reference images used to build a model of how the real world looks, which has nothing to do with labels. Computers have no eyes and therefore cannot directly perceive the real world and have no concept of 3 dimensional space, texture, shape, color and dimensions intrinsically. So what you are actually doing is writing an algorithm that generates patterns of data using statistical methods during training to associate groups of bit patterns to a set of labels. That is not seeing as in how living creatures see. It is just another way of writing code to perform a task where most of that code is written to do the training and then once the model is built it can be used to dynamically perform certain functions, within some other code or using an API.

[@PrathamInCloud]

@@Anarchy421 Good luck trying to match a model that's trained on millions of years of evolution and uses a 576 MP camera for inputs. Not to mention all that data gets stored on the most dense form of storage known to mankind (and possibly the densest form of storage possible too)

Thanks Sara for simple explanation of computer vision and API details. A small correction though, evolution of vision as per en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambrian#Dating_the_Cambrian was less than "billions of years ago".

[@mayalaluna4005]

hi, Google, I really have something i want to ask the AI community. i am not really a developer, but a friend... and i feel there should be more to AI vision than regular cameras... i started think about the issue because my need to have a good quality scan of my old newspapers collections... the quality of smart phone scan, even with google app, is just not good enough comparing to flatbed scan.... and i thought if we can turn the entire screen of smart phone as the scanning glass as in flatbed, it would be so much better quality... most of all, it would ensure the paper stay in perfect flat shape and every detail would be evenly scanned with extreme high density details... the technology of adding some light sensor to the smart phone screen wouldn't be a huge breakthrough.... and here really is the connection i am thinking about of AI vision, if smart phone have such flatbed scanning function, it would be like a sense of touching something with a hand, so in a way, AI not only could have the eye vision through camera, it could gain the visions of physical contact by scanning.... inch by inch, square by square.... and by doing so, it would improve the AI's understanding of the world in a much more expanded dimension.... and in the future if the smart phone screen could be soft flexible, it would really be like the skin of AI, it will feel and observe the world in a way human can not even imagine... i know my writing isn't so good, but i believe this thought of mine is really worthy of google's consideration....

[@colorbars8564]

What is the best programming language to learn for computer vision? I'm a college student who is fairly proficient in C++ but am not sure if I should focus more on learning Java or Python to increase my chances of landing a job working in this field after college. I'm an applied mathematics major and have taken several classes in linear algebra, real analysis, complex analysis, probability, numerical analysis/methods and differential equations.

[@styxnexus]

IMHO, you should focus more on Python !

[@toshb1384]

Python or Processing+Java

[@renatocastro4285]

Focus on Python, however C++ is very good for Computer Vision too. Almost the half of computer vision projects in production are coded on C++.

it's cool to always throw around the words "machine learning", but it would be even better if we actually educated CS grads with signals and systems theory. No matter how much you know about ML you'll never understand why it works if you don't understand signal (including 2d signal like images) processing.

You're just training your model with million users photos , if not how can you train it to that much extent ... You guys have large computing power and million users data that's why it's possible to train your model quickly...
