I’m one of the developers. This tool makes it possible and comprehensible to interactively explore visual datasets with millions of items. It is a pan/zoom interface showing an irregular grid of images. The items are organized using machine learning such that similar items are next to each other. When you zoom in, new items are inserted between the ones already shown, exponentially increasing the size of the grid with each such transition. The original motivation came while we were working on a deep learning project and were frustrated that it was impossible to meaningfully view/explore our dataset of millions of images. As we built it, we came to realize that it might be useful for other tasks as well, and is pretty fun to use. We’d love to hear any feedback!
- kdsudac 6y agoReally cool tool with a lot of potential. My feedback/nit: It's a little hard at first glance to understand what it's useful for. Users need to engage with the demos down below that are probably too far down the page.
- jacobn 6y agoThanks! Rearranged the page to put the demos right below the video and made the video clickable so that it takes you right into the wikiart demo.
