We decided to approach this problem as a similarity learning modeling effort. We used convolutional neural networks to train a model that takes an image or video as input and outputs a vector representation of the input, such that similar inputs will be close to each other in the vector space. The vector learning is driven by a triplet loss function.
Object detection in video has become a matter of routine, however, expanding these models to detect an object of your choosing requires many thousands, if not tens of thousands, of training examples. Few shot learners seek to make this process cheaper and easier by learning to detect new objects with only a small handful of examples (i.e. 1-30).
Deep learning, specifically computer vision and natural language processing, can be designed to identify defects during the product packaging process. These deep learning models can verify that a label on a package is present, correct, straight, and readable.
Successfully developing machine learning tools to provide value in a business environment requires much more than algorithmic knowledge and tuning. Machine learning cannot provide value in a vacuum.
Mosaic designed and deployed custom computer vision models to automate asset recognition & inform inspection decisions.
MLflow is open-source software initially developed by DataBricks for managing the “machine learning lifecycle.” It makes the model artifacts and their environment specifications more readily available when assembling ML model applications or for other purposes such as collaborating with teammates
Traditional lending practices are a prime candidate for machine learning improvements. Lenders can make more accurate and faster decisions by shifting decision-making from analysis of individuals to analysis of trends and patterns.
Natural language models have come a long way in the past couple of years. With the advent of the deep learning Transformer architecture, it became possible to generate text that could, plausibly, be passed off as written by a human.
To understand GPT-3, it’s helpful to understand a little bit about the history of language models. The language of computers is numbers. The input to all machine learning algorithms is ultimately numbers as well.
Mosaic designed and deployed a custom machine learning model to help this retail energy company predict customer churn and inform a geographic growth strategy.
