This is called image segmentation - Facebook recently open sourced DeepMask/SharpMask which does this https://github.com/facebookresearch/deepmask

I'm in the same boat - glide is the one that has Just Worked for me and my projects, so seeing some consensus around it would be nice.

It doesn't matter much in practice - most people just use Unity or Unreal, which make it easy to target any major VR system. To the credit of these game engines, it's just not that hard to be compatible these days. That's why

With all due respect, you're definitely not the target market for Vulkan. It's an incredibly low level abstraction layer over GPUs intended to allow rendering engine developers to control the intricate details of the pipeline. Fo

Since it seems this paper's primary focus is on performance, it'd be interesting to see how this technique stacks up against one of those fancy new binary networks (e.g. http://arxiv.org/abs/1603.05279 )

I think it has more to do with the switch from the web (where people search rather than type the address) to apps (where people arrive via notification or app icon)

Interesting - I saw this as a defensive response to the rising number of developers using Amazon's Alexa APIs, rather than anything related to Nuance.

The good news is that Angular 1.x will work fine. It'll get the job done, there's a huge pool of talent to pull from, and it's proven to work at scale. However there are newer, better technologies now, and in 2 years time, t

TensorFlow, open sourced by Google, would allow you to implement the latest in voice recognition research relatively quickly. Recently they released TensorFlow Serving which lets you run your tensorflow models on the cloud.

Why does the fact that it's taken so long show how insane a kludge Windows is, rather than indicating that there is simply a lot of work to recreate?

Determining why a particular neuron in a large model fired or did not fire is still a guessing game, as far as I know. Kind of fun to look at patterns of when certain neurons activate a few layers deep in image classification convnets htt

UE4 is indeed great, and I think their smartest move was creating Blueprints -- they've quietly created probably the most user-accessible programming environment I've seen. I'm seeing a strong preference for Unity in the VR w

I think it was meant in the sense that the "criticality" could involve just a few neurons or many, but if for example we could learn how to detect it, that detector would need to work regardless of the scale of the event. In CV th

Surprised that a product person without data would go on record saying that an issue big enough to warrant a co-signed open letter isn't important enough for Github to address. The best product people I've worked with start by ge

Other than creating profiles for users that didn't sign up, which is over the line, the rest of this seems like just solid product marketing and user onboarding.

I can imagine why - seems this will be an interesting legal/ethical question for our society in the next decade.

Thank you, and yes I should clarify that I'm against that kind of espionage use. It's the technology itself that seems promising for other purposes.

That's what I think is so cool about it -- half the issue with QR codes is that you have to open an app, point a camera at it, focus, and take a picture. With this technology, you don't have to do any of those things. Nor do you

This is really cool--it's essentially an audio QR code--and I think could improve the user experience across a number of apps.

The whole "write a shared library, and layer your platform-specific UI on top of it" sounds great in theory and is brought up all the time, but vanishingly few apps actually do this from what I can tell.

What's GAI-complete? I'm assuming you don't mean getaddrinfo and a Google search doesn't reveal much.
