2. CODE SAMPLES ARE ON GITHUB
GITHUB.COM/HOCKEYGEEKGIRL/ANALYZEI
MAGE
SLIDES ARE AVAILABLE ON SLIDESHARE

3. WITH THE ADVENT OF CLOUD WE
NOW HAVE THE PROCESSING
POWER TO ANALYZE IMAGES

4. YOU MAY HAVE BUSINESS IDEAS OR
PROBLEMS THAT CAN BE
ADDRESSED BY ANALYZING IMAGES

5. UNFORTUNATELY
ANALYZING
IMAGES IS ONE OF
THE MORE
DIFFICULT TYPES
OF DATA SCIENCE

6. YOU NEED A WAY TO ANALYZE IMAGES
WITHOUT A PHD
for lazy
coders
your ultimate guide
to analyzing images

7. FORTUNATELY
THERE ARE
TOOLS AND
SERVICES THAT
CAN HELP

8. SO WHAT ARE YOUR OPTIONS?
Prebuilt
services
Classification

Networks

9. THERE ARE A
NUMBER OF PRE-
BUILT SERVICES
YOU CAN CALL

10. ALL SERVICES FOLLOW THE SAME BASIC
MODEL
• Create a cloud account and sign in to the cloud service
• Create an instance of the cloud service
• Get the API Key and location of the service
• Call the REST API passing in image as URL or file
• Results returned in JSON

11. DEMO:
CALLING A PRE-BUILT
SERVICE

12. THERE ARE DRAG AND DROP TOOLS YOU
CAN USE TO TRAIN YOUR OWN MODELS
• Custom Vision Service (Microsoft)
• Watson Visual Recognition on Watson Studio (IBM)
• AutoML Vision (Google)
• Vize (Ximilar)
