Listen "Robot Perception and Mask R-CNN"
Episode Synopsis
Chris DeBellis, a lead AI data scientist at Honeywell, helps us understand what Mask R-CNN is and why it’s useful for robot perception. We also explore how this method compares with other convolutional neural network approaches and how you can get started with Mask R-CNN.Sponsors:DigitalOcean – Enjoy CPU optimized droplets with dedicated hyper-threads from best in class Intel CPUs for all your machine learning and batch processing needs.
