AI: Use cases, trends and opportunities

[2017-11-29 Wed 10:08:21] event: NUS CS seminar speaker: Tok Wee Hyong

** Snow leopard trust At least one snow leopard is killed everyday

• mining, poaching, retribution killing

Took 9 years to collar 23 snow leopards

300+ camera traps

• pictures are manually classified
• 5% contain snow leopards
  • many others were triggered by goats

Use RESNET-50 to identify images with snow leopards

• currently working on identifying individuals

** Land use classification of aerial imagery

** CNN + transfer learning using the last few layers as featurizer use the features with a classical classifier

** Drones for utility line inspection YOLOv2 achieves 90fps for object detection challenges for small object detection

** Generating synthetic images to solve the minority class problem convert drone footage to CAD models, generate synthetic images for the minority class

** Lowe’s for gathering customer style preference customers can indicate if they like/dislike a particular design

** Trends GANS

• image generation GANS + RL
• sequence generation New NN representation
• capsules? common representation of DNN
• onnx format AI at the edge
• reducing the size of DNN to run on embedded platforms
