As most ML practitioners realize, developing a predictive model in Jupyter Notebook and making the predictions with excel data may not help you build the predictive models required at enterprise scale. To build the model at such a scale, you will need to consider several requirements and use various tools/frameworks that are especially designed to meet the purpose of this expansion.

The objective of data science projects is to make sense of data to people who are only interested in the insights of that data. There are multiple steps a Data Scientist/Machine Learning Engineer follows to provide these desired results. Data pre-processing (Cleaning, Formatting, Scaling, and Normalization) and data visualization through different plots are two very important steps that help in building machine learning models more accurately.

Basically, segmentation is a process that partitions an image into regions. It is an image processing approach that allows us to separate objects and textures in images. Segmentation is especially preferred in applications such as remote sensing or tumor detection in biomedicine.
There are many traditional ways of doing this. For example; point, line, and edge detection methods, thresholding, region-based, pixel-based clustering, morphological approaches, etc. Various methods have been developed for segmentation with convolutional neural networks (a common deep learning architecture), which have become indispensable in tackling more advanced challenges with image segmentation. In this post, we’ll take a closer look at one such architecture: u-net.

Following up on my last blog post on training an image labeling model using Google Cloud AutoML (linked below), in this second blog post in the series; we’ll look into how to train yet another model to identify and locate objects within an image instead—an object detection model!
If you haven’t read my blog on image labeling, you can read it here:

In 2015, Snapchat, the incredibly popular social content platform, added Lenses to their mobile app —augmented reality (AR) filters that give you big strange teeth, turn your face into an alpaca, or trigger digital brand-based experiences.
In addition to AR, the other core underlying technology in Lenses is mobile machine learning — neural networks running on-device that do things like create a precise map of your face or separate an image/video’s background from its foreground.

AR (augmented reality) is the next-gen thing. It provides an interactive experience of a real-world environment where the objects that reside in the real world are enhanced by computer-generated perceptual information, sometimes across multiple sensory modalities including visual, auditory, and haptic.
Facebook’s Spark AR Studio is a tool for creators to create, publish, and manage AR Apps. It is an open-source tool by Facebook and anyone with a Facebook account can easily access this studio. Nowadays, it is mostly used for creating AR filters for Facebook and Instagram.

Python remains the most popular language for building and training machine/deep learning models. This is because of the numerous libraries and tools built around it, that enables developers and researchers to quickly build models.
But in terms of deployment of these models created in Python, there is a trend towards using a different language. Some of the reasons behind this are:

Formik and Yup are great development tools for building awesome looking UI forms in React Native apps. To showcase the power and benefits of these tools, we’ll build two forms for login and signup screens, and show how easy it is to validate them using both Formik and Yup.

Math might be scary, but it’s an essential part of everyday life. Wouldn’t it be cool if we could build an app, point our phone’s camera at an expression, and let the app compute the result? Whenever I’ve needed to use math, I’ve wished this was possible. Now, with advances in machine learning and vision recognition in iOS, this is doable.

In part 3 of our tutorial series on building a chat app in React Native, we integrated Firestore the current React Native app, creating a database that stores chat room names. A new chat room can be created using a modal stack, but only if a given user is authenticated.
