In this tutorial, I will be looking at how to prepare a semantic segmentation dataset for use with FastAI. I will be using the Chest X-Ray Images (Pneumonia) dataset from Kaggle as an example. This post focuses on the components that are specific to semantic segmentation. To see tricks and tips for using FastAI with data in general, see my FastAI Data Tutorial - Image Classification.
In this tutorial, I will be looking at how to prepare an object detection dataset for use with PyTorch and FastAI. I will be using the DOTA dataset as an example. I will prepare the same data for both PyTorch and FastAI to illustrate the differences. This post focuses on the components that are specific to object detection. To see tricks and tips for using FastAI with data in general, see my FastAI Data Tutorial - Image Classification.
This post is a tutorial for loading data with FastAI. The interface has changed a lot since I originally wrote a FastAI data tutorial, so I deleted that one and I’m starting from scratch and making a brand new one. I’ll try to keep this up-to-date with the latest version. FastAI seems to be quite stable at the moment, so hopefully this will continue to work with the latest version.
Is it barbaric to write poetry after Auschwitz?
Why is modern architecture so ugly?
Apple’s M1 chips were released to much fanfare and some very impressive benchmarks. Unfortunately, all these gains don’t come for free. The downside of such a significant change is that it causes incompatibility issues. And because the basic CPU and instruction set are different, there are a lot of thorny issues. In this post, I’ll walk through some I ran into when installing standard data science libraries and how I solved them. In the end, I was able to get everything working, although it took quite a bit of patience. Hopefully, these incompatibilities get resolved relatively soon, but, until then, here’s my guide to help you out.
If you’ve ever tried to clone a repository from GitHub and gotten a “Permission denied (publickey)” error, you may need to create an ssh key and share it with GitHub. This post will walk through that process. The commands used in this post are for Mac and Linux.
