However, the tools and procedures to process this massive amount of data have not kept pace with the growth. For many, ingesting and curating data is still a largely manual and time-intensive project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Helge Jacobsen, Senior Deep Learning Engineer at Veo, says \u201cMost academic datasets are far from the industry&#8217;s needs. In our case we have rather small objects in fairly big images. This is probably a common problem, but in academia it is kind of a niche.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Akridata Data Explorer is the first platform designed to be uniquely focused on processing visual data in the ML lifecycle. Founded by a team of serial entrepreneurs with deep technical expertise in solving image processing challenges, Akridata quickly realized from working with computer vision data science teams that the bigger challenges lay in searching, clustering and selecting visual data to accelerate model accuracy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>\u201cThe demand for data scientists and the tools they need is only going to grow over time\u201d, says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/vijay-karamcheti-a7559991\/\">Vijay Karamcheti<\/a>, CEO and Co-Founder of Akridata. \u201cThere are 50 billion cameras worldwide, and the data they produce is increasing exponentially, so it&#8217;s imperative that data scientists have tools to comb through and analyze this data efficiently.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The initial launch of Akridata Data Explorer arms data scientists with tools across the MLops lifecycle:&nbsp; Tools to visualize and drill down into large data sets as clusters based on embeddings (e.g. spotting different actions by vehicles, people, etc.), tools to search data (e.g. finding additional instances of objects found within a bounding box specified by the user), and identification of novelty data sets to reduce class imbalances, and reduce data labeling spend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>\u201cHaving worked with data scientists building models for computer vision applications, we understand the challenges they face,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/pichaiah\/\">Sanjay Pichaiah<\/a>, Vice President, Products &amp; GTM of Akridata. \u201cFor AI models to be production grade, it is equally if not more important to choose the training datasets than the model parameters. There is a burning need for tools to assist data scientists in making\u00a0 intelligent and informed data selection. \u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sign up for the free insideBIGDATA&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/inside-bigdata.com\/newsletter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">newsletter<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Join us on Twitter:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/InsideBigData1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/InsideBigData1<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Join us on LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/insidebigdata\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/insidebigdata\/<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Join us on Facebook: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/insideBIGDATANOW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/insideBIGDATANOW<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Akridata, an AI platform for visual data, announced the first availability of its platform that provides data science teams the tools to easily explore, search, analyze, and compare visual data to improve data sets and improve model training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10513,"featured_media":30319,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[526,115,180,56,1,70],"tags":[437,658,1205,96],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.6 -
