@liuliu, can libccv be used to make your own classifiers, like in Caffe, you can use a pre existing model and fine tune it to a new dataset? Can I use libccv to train a classifier of clouds vs birds, or can it only be used for the 1000 standard category recognition from ImageNet?
- liuliu 12y agoIt includes a training program (./bin/image-net.c), however, it requires a bit of work to get it started (you need to initialize a new convnet with the pre-trained parameters, and then fine-tuning the whole network). It is on my todo list to make a more friendly training program that for these simple tasks, you should be able to do with CPU easily.
- redlabs4000 12y agoCool, I'd love to help out with adding that tutorial to libccv, do you and the libccv team use a communication tool like trello or skype to communicate? Or email?
- liuliu 12y agoGreat! Feel free to reach me at i@liuliu.me!
- possibilistic 12y agoI remember when you first announced this project some years back. You've done such an incredible job! :) Since you mention distribution of pre-trained models by participants in ImageNet 2014, I have to wonder if there would be a market for distributing specialized classifiers like open source software. Eg, an npm-like website you might be able to find a "dog breed classifier", "car make/model classifier", etc. If so, what would it take to make it happen?
- redlabs4000 12y agoThat's a really cool idea, I think that could really help the community and add involvement to the library too
