Another Great visualization

Comparison of the rotational speed of the planets in the solar system and their axis of rotation in real-time!

This student couldn't find an internship so he built an AI-controlled robot hand!

His code takes in a video stream and uses Computer Vision (MediaPipe, a pre-trained Neural network) to identify the hand joint coordinates.

Then with some linear algebra, those coordinates are converted to servo motor controls and sent to the Arduino.

The processing is done on the computer instead of on the Arduino and that makes the hand extremely responsive.

The mechanics were designed and 3d printed from scratch. The electronics were self-wired and the code was custom-written.

Data storytelling is an art, it's the ability to effectively communicate insights from a dataset using narratives and visualizations.

It can be used to put data insights into context for and inspire action from your audience.

There are three key components to data storytelling:

Data: Thorough analysis of accurate, complete data serves as the foundation of your data story. Analyzing data using descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, and prescriptive analysis can enable you to understand its full picture.

Narrative: A verbal or written narrative, also called a storyline, is used to communicate insights gleaned from data, the context surrounding it, and actions you recommend and aim to inspire in your audience.

Visualizations: Visual representations of your data and narrative can be useful for communicating its story clearly and memorably. These can be charts, graphs, diagrams, pictures, or videos.

Boss vs Leader

A boss manages their employees, while a leader inspires them to innovate, think creatively, and strive for perfection.

Every team has a boss, but what people need is a leader who will help them achieve greatness.

Also, if you have a good leader who cares about you and your future career development, make sure you appreciate their leadership and don't take it as granted! :)

Realtime Eyedot Tracker 👀

One use-case can be an anti-cheating app for online exams!
Frank Spalteholz has implemented a first re-projection onto the screen and it indicates where he is looking at.

The second part is showing the first prototype of a complete multithreaded Media-Pipe-Iris-Tracking (which is still running about 45fps on an iPad Pro although it has to handle 4 TensorFlow models in parallel!).

It's also worthy to note that the Media-Pipe tracker is rather invariant against rotation and scale which is a huge advantage towards precision.

Future: fuse both systems in the next step since that OpenCV-contour-finder is way too sensitive for various situations like dark lighting conditions, blinks (of course), intersections with eyelashes etc.

Well done Frank Spalteholz.

The latest AI algorithm to make the image dance!\n\nIt tackles human image synthesis, including human motion imitation, appearance transfer, and novel view synthesis, within a unified framework. \n\nThe existing task-specific methods mainly use 2D keypoints (pose) to estimate the human body structure. \nHowever, they only express the position information with no ability to characterize the personalized shape of the person and model the limb rotations. \n\nThis paper proposes to use a 3D body mesh recovery module to disentangle the pose and shape. It can not only model the joint location and rotation but also characterize the personalized body shape. \n\nTo preserve the source information, such as texture, style, color, and face identity, we propose an Attentional Liquid Warping GAN with Attentional Liquid Warping Block (AttLWB) that propagates the source information in both image and feature spaces to the synthesized reference. \n\nHow realistic it is?

Overfitting and Underfitting simplified:

By looking at the graph on the left side we can predict that the line does not cover all the points shown in the graph. Such a model tends to cause the underfitting of data. It also called High Bias.

Whereas the graph on the right side shows the predicted line covers all the points in graph. In such a condition you can also think that it’s a good graph which covers all the points. But that’s not actually true, the predicted line into the graph covers all points which are noise and outlier. Such a model is also responsible to predict poor results due to its complexity. It is also called High Variance
.
Now, Looking at the middle graph it shows a pretty good predicted line. It covers the majority of the point in the graph and also maintains the balance between bias and variance.

Just announced!🔥 Text to Video AI Model looks awesome.

Text-to-video is the next frontier for generative AI, though the current output is rudimentary. Runway says it’ll be making its new generative video model, Gen-2, available to users in ‘the coming weeks.’

Gen-1 focused on transforming existing video footage, letting users input a rough 3D animation or shaky smartphone clip and apply an AI-generated overlay.

Gen-2, by comparison, seems more focused on generating videos from scratch, though there are lots of caveats to note.

This year is the year of Generative AI!

Tesla is calling its new camera-based autonomous driving system Tesla Vision. In its official announcement, Tesla stated that removal of the radar would temporarily limit a couple of autonomous features.

Going the opposite direction to Tesla, Volvo recently announced it would be adding LiDAR to its fully electric XC90 successor. The full suite of sensors Volvo has presented include cameras, ultrasonics, LiDARs and radars.

The future of document scanning is definitely AI

Amazing how iScanner keeps pushing the bar of scanning by adjusting AI algorithms to specific cases.

If you’ve ever scanned a page of a huge book or a crumpled piece of paper, you know how frustrating it is because the end result is far from perfect.

Skewed and warped lines make the scan illegible to both people and character recognition systems.

iScanner created a Scan Straightener for such cases. It’s based on an AI dewarping model that recognizes text and removes warps, skews, and curves from scans.

Once the straightener is done working its magic, you are left with an amazing result: a professional-looking scan with all the elements present in the original document.

Whether your document includes text, images, or tables, the app will transfer them into an editable PDF file. You can give it a try and scan your documents now https://lnkd.in/gyFVXv25
