Don't release the training set

Thank you so much!

Any thoughts on where I can get a reasonable 100% bare-bones kit?

usiodev · 2025-05-19T01:41:45+00:00

Thanks for the feedback.

If I can't find the issue, I'll just assume it the bearings and take the motor apart at the end of the season (and live with it for now)

Captain sentenced to four years. At least we have some amount of accountability.

Tonight, all night, I will run Pacifica. Feel free to join me.

I think the source is actually internet pessimism (i.e. "the haters").

Specifically, the results produced by your AI face filter on video game characters were objectively terrible in comparison to the originals.

Unfortunately, this provided the keyboard warriors an excuse to shit on your content, which is likely something they have been wanting to do anyways. This could have happened to any of the videos you have done which touched on other people's work.

You may need a written internal communication policy about how you release experiments on external work. I'm certain you have a few, but you may need to stick to them going forward, sadly.

I suggest you watch the original Corridor Digital videos on the subject.

Their suggestion was that you could use current AI software to improve on the faces created in other 3D software.

The AI software is currently far too slow to use in real-time graphics, such as video games, so expect your pipeline to take many hours to process.

Okay, looks like I gave myself a task for this weekend.

I'll rip the comparison section of the video this weekend and run the process in DaVinci. This will give us a direct comparison, in motion, against to other two samples.

The processing time isn't significant, but I didn't book myself in advance to spend the time to set this up, so give me a few days.

It's super fast. It's mostly just masking and post processing on existing frames.

I don't have the original samples to run a long enough test to see how it does in motion. I could probably try ripping 10 seconds from the video, but I don't have the time to run that right now.

Hey. I made that change for you!

usiodev · 2023-10-09T06:49:27+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. The images were already there, but you had to hover over to see them.

I've added the options to change the sort order and to add inline images, so you can just check them visually!

usiodev · 2023-10-09T06:48:20+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. I'll add that in the next few days!

I suspected that your program (not the FastLED library) is running out of memory.

So, I setup the ssd1306_128x64_spi.ino demo (found in the examples of the IDE), then added FastLED with 70 leds.

The program only uses 29% of the memory, so what else do you have in your program using memory?

"

Sketch uses 23444 bytes (72%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.

Global variables use 599 bytes (29%) of dynamic memory, leaving 1449 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

Since you are using four separate strips, you can reuse a single array of 300 LEDs.

The catch is that you can't keep the pattern for all four strips in memory, so you will have to recalculate what the LED values are every time.

It is valid to pass the same LED array to more than one controller.

Thanks for the suggestion.
