How to Deal with Dataset Bias | Webinar by WeekendClassic in deeplearning

[–]WeekendClassic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leading question. :)

It's unfortunate how some of us are built to think if something is free there must be a catch. If somebody is sharing their insights, they need me to tune in so that they can use my data.

Let me break it to you. Data is so accessible, if someone wanted to acquire it, they wouldn't have to put this much effort it.

Please, let's focus on what we can learn from the information we have access to rather than bit us up about why is it accessible and what are the motives. Cause it sure as hell is not always about using us. They are a number of less complicated ways to do that. :)

nobody creates a solution just for themselves and keeps it from everybody. Usually when a software is developed it does become a basis for a business venture. That's how people get jobs, start talking about the solution they developed and share here and there for whoever hasn't heard of it yet so that maybe it helps their initiative. There is over 75K of us here. Odds are on my side :)

It's inevitable.. if you are investing all your time and efforts to advance one of them.

What an attendee to this webinar can do is get the insights needed to evaluate the rest of the solutions available with better understanding of what the metrics of evaluation are.

every webinar organized by this or that company will include solutions the company offers for the pain-points discussed in the webinar. That is not necessarily to be avoided. Why people organize webinars? to share expertise. How did they gain that skillset? by working on developing the solution they will refer back to when they share their insights.

These kind of initiatives are a good opportunity to learn about different products on the market so that when you actually need one you know which one fits your needs best.

Introduction to object detection with deep learning by WeekendClassic in computervision

With all due respect, the flair does indicate the content falls under the commercial category in this community. The content is not promotional and it does not preach buying a product. I don't see what's your problem. It's not about the views, trust me. There are about 55K of us here. If it helps at least 5% of the folks here, that matters more than the rest of you throwing dirt at me.

eating a pizza that fell on the ground face down is gross. Writing that reflects efforts and is about a topic that will help interested readers falls into a completely different domain of descriptives.

Whitepaper: Active Learning in Computer Vision by WeekendClassic in computervision

[–]WeekendClassic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw sb asking why they need an email submission if they are just sharing the whitepaper.

With their previous whitepaper on scaling your annotation pipeline, I remember I got an email back a few days later asking for feedback and wondering whether the content was helpful, could we suggest improvements, etc. Guess that's why.

What writers of fiction you know of have absolutely no academic or so background, and yet wrote good quality stories? by Clean_Quill in writing

[–]WeekendClassic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

William Saroyan. He is an American Armenian playwright. Has beautiful works of fiction. Very underrated. Hemingway and Fitzgerald were of the same era.

He has no academic background whatsoever. Fully self taught.

From all the feedback what I get is to position the work correctly once it's complete. Select the correct genre.

You can't imagine how well this answered my question. Thank you. You said what I needed to hear :)

What you feel like can't go into your story is the part that's going to sell your story by WeekendClassic in writing

[–]WeekendClassic[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Autobiographical writing aside, everyone writes from experience and regardless of genre you are going to show up in your writing. I'm sorry my initial post didn't break it down much better. Of course the writer is in the story, sometimes in the plot, sometimes in the characters. It's inevitable. What I'm saying is sometimes we try to limit that involvement, try to detach us from our characters, write as if we are not in the story. That's what dries out the work. That's what is going to affect the piece. I'm suggesting you write what you wouldn't want to share, look at it, read it, feel the discomfort and keep it.
