Cloud AI/ML APIs, How easy is it to deploy these on the Edge

Custom Vision Identification The process is very easy as we use the Custom Vision (http://customvision.ai ) service to train an image classifier and then export the finished model in a number of different forms – CoreML, TensorFlow, ONNX, or dockerfile for IoT Edge/Azure Functions/Azure ML. So the process is: Use CustomVision.ai to build a model… Continue reading Cloud AI/ML APIs, How easy is it to deploy these on the Edge

Machine Learning – Building a Pet Detector in 30 minutes using Tensorflow

Ever wondered what breed that dog or cat is? In this show, you’ll see us train, optimize and deploy a deep learning model using Azure Notebooks, Azure Machine Learning Service, and Visual Studio Code using Python. We use transfer learning to retrain a mobilenet model using Tensorflow to recognize dog and cat breeds using the… Continue reading Machine Learning – Building a Pet Detector in 30 minutes using Tensorflow

How to avoid overstocks and understocks with better demand forecasting

Promotional planning and demand forecasting are incredibly complex processes. Take something seemingly straight-forward, like planning the weekly flyer, and there are thousands of questions involving a multitude of teams just to decide what products to promote, and where to position the inventory to maximize sell-through.
