![]() ![]() For example, a machine vision algorithm trained with a single imaginative template of a car is much better at recognising cars in other images than the same algorithm trained with a single ordinary image of a car. Vondrick and co have used the templates to train machine vision algorithms and say the results significantly outperform other training mechanisms. Yet the results are more than merely curious. By contrast, people in US produced a template showing a car from the side. One bizarre finding is that when the team asked people from Singapore to identify cars, the resulting template appears to show a car as viewed from the front. Clearly, the cultural landscape has an important impact on human imagination. But in the US, the most popular sports are American football and basketball, which are played with orange or brown balls. In India, the most popular sport is cricket which is played with a red ball. But ask people from the US to do the same exercise and the result is an orange/brown blur. For example, ask people in India to pick out images that remind them of a sports ball and the resulting template is a red circular blur. One of the interesting discoveries Vondrick and co have made is that there are cultural differences between imaginations formed in different parts of the world. In each case, when the selected images are averaged, a blurry template of these objects emerge. And Sadie with her teething toy, haha.In separate tests, they also ask workers to find images of people, televisions, bottles, sports balls and so on. I’m still figuring out how to style my shorter hair, but here’s a (not great, lol) photo of the length. I bought and changed the lightbulbs in our microwave! This was big for me because I’m so unsure of myself with stuff like this, haha. I’m pretty sure Sadie is going through a growth spurt, teething, and the four month sleep regression all at once. I’m currently reading this book and can’t put it down. Sadie and I are watching her try on wedding dresses this weekend, which should be a lot of fun! I think our little photoshoot was a success! My sis-in-law even asked me to be a bridesmaid, which I’m really excited about. ![]() She originally asked me to photograph them, but I don’t think I’m that proficient with my DSLR camera, so I told her I’d pose them if my my brother-in-law could take the pictures. Here are a few snaps from my phone. Jimmy, his brother, and I spent Saturday afternoon taking pictures of my sister-in-law and her fiancé for their save the dates! In reality she was having a cranky morning, I needed coffee, and we both needed to get out of the house, so Dunkin’ it was! I even took Sadie on a date with me to Dunkin’ Donuts so we could work together! Okay, onto other (slightly?) less random things. I am still plugging away at reading and editing my book so I can get. I bought some of their freshly ground peanut butter and sent her a picture of the empty container on Tuesday. Peanut butter eating is my specialty □ Sadie loves the teether, by the way!Īaaand here’s one more random picture from my camera roll, just for fun.Īnother picture I sent to my mom! I took her to a new grocery store by our house called Fresh Thyme Farmer’s Market on a Friday. Jimmy was bending over to unlace his shoes, Malcolm was just casually resting on his back, and Sadie was relaxing in her carseat on our side table. Jimmy and I came home from church and received an Amazon package of this teething toy (the orange thing I’m holding) that my mom had sent to us. ![]() I sent this picture to my mom on Sunday and just noticed it in my photos and was cracking up when I really looked at it. Hi! Let’s start this post off with a really random picture!
