Re: Fast and accurate object detection in high resolution 4K and 8K video using GPUs
#2I have six gopro in an spherical arrangement and each one produces 960p video at 120fps, this renders a spherical 4k video.
From what I read they can process Yolo 6fps on multiple GPUs. Is a 20x speedup with more gpu possible based on their architecture?

#3Somewhat OT, but standing in line at the grocery store checkout last night I couldn't help but wonder why so many billions are being spent on complex visual problems like self-driving cars, then at the same time the checkout clerk has to look in a laminated binder and then manually punch in a code number to get a price for bananas. (Happens at both big chains around here — Safeway and Kroger alliances.)
Surely with all this image AI and ML coming out of SV, there must be a way to augment cash registers to detect the difference between a dragonfruit and a kumquat.

Well for training attention-cnn model I think it.would speed it up, but as they note in the paper, running the pipeline they experienced worker saturation on their dataset (see figure 12). Looks like saturation occurs after 7 parallel workers with their hardware.

Perhaps we’ll see more of the tech you mention in Whole Foods and other brick and mortar businesses that Amazon is getting into.

Human labor is still cheaper and more consistent than current AI and ML systems.

Looking at the laminated binder is not a nominal case, thankfully. Think of it as a cache miss.
Most checkout clerks have memorized the codes and don't refer to the binder anymore. Perhaps you saw a new employee.
Also, many fruits/veggies have stickers on them with the code (either numeric or bar-code) so you don't have to do a lookup into "the binder". That's how you can easily go through the "self checkout" lanes (although there is a fallback in the form of a "virtual binder" in the UI if you can't find the code and want to select your produce from a set of buttons/images on the screen, with optional string searches).
It's often key to have a differentiator in the form of a code because different items can be visually equivalent (think about bananas vs organic bananas).

IME, too often the sticker isn't useful because it's fallen off, or is obscured by the green eco-friendly produce bags.

I don't use self-checkout, on principle. I'd rather wait in line three minutes than cost a minimum-wage checkout person their job.

This is an excellent point I didn't think of. I don't know that AI will be able to distinguish regular from organic produce in my lifetime.

For sure it will recognise fruits and vegetables better then any teenager around here that has a job as cashier. Amount of times I had to facepalm because cashier didn't recognise a beet or other common vegetable or fruit is significant.
But I refuse to self scan until you have to pay to use a cashier or self scan gets you a discount.
