Which sketch dataset are they using for the "Quick, Draw!" experiment?

We have created our own dataset for this experiment based on internal data collection. Its currently a rather small dataset, some categories only have a handful of samples, but works anyway. Jonas (developer behind quickdraw)

Why didn't you use one of the existing sketch datasets? Was it because of license issues? Do you think that the accuracy would be the same if you had a bigger dataset?

It asked me to draw a tree. I drew a palm tree. It said "palm tree" on the bottom, but then said it failed. I drew the palm tree because I've studied AI and that's a classic AI mistake. If you go to Hawaii and ask students to draw a tree, almost all of them will draw a palm tree. Ask them to draw a bird and it looks like a parrot (instead of the robin you see typically in the "lower 48"). It's interesting that this s…

As an amusing side note, whether or not a coconut palm (and presumably regular palms also) qualifies as a tree is a pretty controversial topic in Goa.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Apparently it's supposed to learn as people supply more things it doesn't recognize? This sounds familiar... [1] 1: http://www.theverge.com/2016/3/24/11297050/tay-microsoft-cha...

A future where all the drawings must be Swastikas?

Or Mohammad.

In some of the experiments they use t-SNE. To me t-SNE is sufficiently advanced to be indistinguishable from magic. https://lvdmaaten.github.io/tsne/

I can give a shot at explaining TSNE over skype if you're interested.

I would be interested. When would you do this?

And of course humans suffer from that too, in a much more sophisticated way.

I am shameless and evil. Everytime it asks me to "draw" something, I just "draw" the letters for the words it uses to describe the thing it wants me to draw. The poor network is always very confused by that.

Is there an API to convert primitive doodles into guesses?

I'm trying to develop an app which would do this with things people "draw into the air" with their finger.
