God bless people who implement models from academic articles that should frankly include them to begin with. What's more is that this implementation has clear instructions for extending this to your datasets.

[edit] > people who implement models from academic articles

Is anyone collecting the various HN discussions as these pop up? I would appreciate help finding them again.

Any AI discussions in general, or something more specific? This sounds like a fun idea that’s worth trying.

This is cool.

I wonder with stuff like this, what happens if a self driving car is capable of processing reflections in glass windows? What if it sees a reflection of itself and is able to properly identify it as being itself? Does that make it self aware?

I'm being serious. People like to throw around terms like "self aware" with some assumption that it is a long way off, or impossible, to have a machine be self aware. But that would meet my definition. People will say "yeah but that's not what I mean." And I want to know what you actually mean, then.

Can someone add depth to the training set? I'd like depth estimates for objects in the frame too. It could be interesting to fly into a video.

Does the iPhone 8 have rgbd now for short range? Maybe someday we could get pixel by pixel depth estimates?

Many robots already have cameras pointed at themselves. What does that change really?

If you're looking for a way to find the implementations again I recommend http://www.gitxiv.com/

> academic articles that should frankly include them to begin with. Boo hoo. Researchers tell the world for free exactly how to implement their state-of-the-art work (which probably cost north of $1M to develop) and promise to release code, and we're indignant because they didn't do it quite fast enough for us.

Very rarely do these papers contain all the tricks needed to replicate the exact results presented. Usually, if you follow the paper to the letter you won’t get the same thing in the end. In particular training regimes and the particulars of data augmentation are often omitted “for brevity“.

Wow, this is fascinating. From a radiology perspective, it could be the missing method for segmenting findings inside a convoluted radiograph.

Yes, and that's possible now with many different CNNs. The limiting factor is the training/validation/test data in your subject.

For example you couldn't implement Mask R-CNN with the COCO dataset as implemented here and get inference on your radiology problem set.
