Synthetic Media driven bots are revolutionizing online businesses — A few years back, it was difficult to imagine a world in which we can interact with digital humans on a daily basis. But as of today, you can encounter a digital human as a part of a layered digital fabric integrated into a website’s customer support bot or in…

Transformers vs Convolutional Deep Networks for synthesizing 3D Data — Introduction to 3D Data It's a consensus that synthesizing 3D data from a single perspective is a fundamental human vision functionality which is extremely challenging for computer vision algorithms. But recent advancements in 3D acquisition technology have taken a great leap after the increased availability and affordability of 3D sensors like LiDARs, RGB-D cameras…

How Neural Networks hallucinate missing pixels for image inpainting — When a human sees an object, certain neurons in our brain’s visual cortex light up with activity, but when we take hallucinogenic drugs, these drugs overwhelm our serotonin receptors and lead to the distorted visual perception of colours and shapes. Similarly, deep neural networks that are modelled on structures in…

Self-supervised Deep Learning for Modelling Audio-Visual Correspondences — Human perception is multidimensional and a balanced combination of hearing, vision, smell, touch, and taste. Recently, many pieces of research have tried to step forward on the road of improving machine perception by transitioning from single-modality learning to multimodality learning. If you are wondering what modality is, it is the…

Multi-object Tracking using self-supervised deep learning — Before we get into what self-supervised attention means, let’s get an intuition of optical flow estimation and how it serves as an approach for tracking objects by both humans and computer vision systems. It is a consensus that object tracking is a fundamental ability that is developed by a human…

Image Matting vs SOD vs Soft Segmentation — The Problem and Computer Vision To The Rescue Nowadays, realistic editing of photographs demands a careful treatment of color blends that frequently occur in natural scenes. These color blends are typically modeled through a soft selection of scene or object colors. Therefore to achieve a high-quality image editing and background composition, accurate representation of these soft transitions between…

The journey was an experience I would cherish for a long time — At the end of the day, the questions remain after a journey comes to an end — What have you learned? Is that what you want? This question was not answered immediately, but eventually. I actually realized my learnings from the internships after a few weeks of returning back to…

The WebApp University Hub is complete and I have tested it with many of my local friends and colleagues , Also I recieved a feedback from a fellow intern at Hasura over the slack channel who pointed out a bug , which helped me test my app over various circumstances. Also as the app is complete and all the screens and their backend is finalised , thus I see the internship coming to an end. The finalised screens are

What is API An API (application programming interface) is a particular set of rules (‘code’) and specifications that software programs can follow to communicate with each other. …
