GhostNetV2: Enhance Cheap Operation with Long-Range Attention

by Ankit Sachan • November 15, 2022

GhostNetV2 is a recent SOTA architecture that allows an implementation of Long-Range attention in the deep CNN frameworks used in various ML tasks such as image classification, object detection, and video analysis. GhostNetV2 proposes a new attention mechanism called DFC attention to capture long range spatial information. And it does so while keeping the implementation […]

Understanding CLIP by OpenAI

by Ankit Sachan • May 10, 2022

CLIP By OPEN-AI Introduction Nearly all state-of-the-art visual perception algorithms rely on the same formula:  (1) pretrain a convolutional network on a large, manually annotated image classification dataset (2) finetune the network on a smaller, task-specific dataset. This technique has been widely used for several years and has led to impressive improvements on numerous tasks.  […]

Using Active Learning to Improve your Machine Learning Models

by Ankit Sachan • April 10, 2022

Machine Learning Reality Check In the Machine Learning World or broadly in the AI Universe, the colonists such as Data Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers, Deep Learning Specialist are coached towards a belief i.e. “More Training Data Means Highly Accurate Production Model“. Which to some extent is unavoidably true but predominately it’s also a fact, that […]

Understanding and improving Image to Image Translation Pix2PixHD

by Ankit Sachan • September 24, 2021

Introduction Photo-realistic image rendering using standard graphics techniques requires realistic simulation of geometry and light. The algorithms which we use currently for the task are effective but expensive. If we were able to render photo-realistic images using a model learned from data, we could turn the process of graphics rendering into a model learning and […]

Understanding StyleGAN for Image Generation using Deep Learning

by Ankit Sachan • August 3, 2021

Introduction Images produced by generative methods have been improving lately. Most of the recent generative algorithms have made use of generative networks that are trained using a discriminator network as their adversary. Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) or generators, in other words, are a relatively new concept in the field of computer vision. Their aim is […]
