Day #263 - Reviewing Interesting Deep Learning Projects

For days I haven't been able to catch up on my technical debts. Too many things running in mind. I feel my time is getting reduced and the things to accomplish are more. Hoping to priotitize and be productive coming days

A ton of projects listed in cs231 reports. This is a great way to understand applications. Reviewing a few of them every day

Project #1 - ConvNets for Intelligent Baby Monitoring
Poster - Link 

This was my dream product idea. A year back we were discussing on the same. They have done a fantastic job in analyzing the idea end to end.

Summary 
Verified in different architecture - ResNet18[1], AlexNet[10]and SqueezeNet[6]. Different camera position was evaluated

Challenges

• Highly unbalanced dataset
• Different camera viewpoints, different rooms/cribs, different babies, different lighting conditions and different toys inside the crib

Motion detection techniques

• Image subtraction
• Optical flow
• Temporal difference method

Manually classify into 5 classes

• Caretaker
• Empty Crib
• Sitting Up
• Lying Down 
• Standing Up

Great Idea and well-implemented!!!

Happy Learning!!!
