I am an avid reader of `/r/reactiongifs` and `/r/highqualitygifs`.
Classification is done by hand, and the idea anyway is to use feedback (either slack reactions or voting on the site) to figure out what the best tag for an image is.
ML classification is pretty tough when it comes to dank may-mays.
- yolesaber 10y agoClassification is done by hand? So you find a gif you like and then add it to your db and do all the tagging and metadata yourself? Interesting. I feel like a script that scrapes Tumblr for gif posts and their associated tags would be a good approach to start automating things.
- bigdubs 10y agoI've found that quality >> quantity, and specifically tumblr is a horrible place to find gifs (bad quality, weird contexts or usage for the gifs).
- yolesaber 10y agoFair enough. I'm inclined to believe that's how GIFy does it, because a lot of their gifs have the stuttering, sliced up kind of motion and compression so endemic to tumblr gifs
- danielam 10y ago"scrapes Tumblr for gif posts" If your goal is to create something even lewder than giphy, then yes.
