<SnoopJeDi> ahhh, claro
<SnoopJeDi> I wonder if "claro" is popular in ES maths texts
<BPlayer> egg: "The first and immediate thing to catch the reader's eye is the coherence between [...]"
<egg> SnoopJeDi: no, unmittelbar is immediately
<SnoopJeDi> egg, oh yes I think I caught your meaning, I just decided I wanted to say "aha I see" in Spanish because distractionbrain is strong today
<egg> SnoopJeDi: my msc thesis doesn't have any obvious or clear fwiw
<egg> those are silly words
<egg> it does have one immediate and two trivials,
<SnoopJeDi> trivial I can live with
<egg> (immediately actually)
<egg> eggsactly an unmittelbar :_p
<SnoopJeDi> I prefer to either not put a descriptor at all, or just describe directly the operation(s) to which I'm referring
<SnoopJeDi> but sometimes it's just clumsier without it, yea
<SnoopJeDi> I don't necessarily *treat* it like a syntax error, but a bright red background reminds me to check if I *really* want to say it that way
<egg> SnoopJeDi: tbh I just dislike "obvious" as a word, it sounds less nice than "trivial", "immediate" etc.
<SnoopJeDi> egg, I think the thing I don't like about "obvious" and "clear" is that it prescribes the reader's state of mind
<BPlayer> Either of those sound discouraging to me if the thing in question is not evident at first
<SnoopJeDi> I'm coming up with muddled results for poking around on scholar with queries for "es claro que" and the like, might ask my mx labmate
<SnoopJeDi> but tbf I'm also that guy who pokes Wikipedia and goes "ohhhhhhh L-systems are a superset of this class of fractals" despite being superficially acquainted with both long prior, so I think I'm on the wrong side of the bell curve wrt grammar 😅

<UmbralRaptop> (K == semiamplitude)
<SilverFox> hey I want to make a neural net train on images of speed signs to learn when a roadsign is a speed sign and then a separate network can grab the numbers from it, how hard would it be to do this?
<SilverFox> is this sort of stuff something that takes a lot of time to implement, like months, excluding training time?
<e_14159_> SilverFox: Do you have experience with neural networks?
<SilverFox> none
<e_14159_> Maybe a week or two.
<SilverFox> okay that's not bad
<UmbralRaptop> egg: for the record, e = 0, K=277.52, and this is around a 1.39 M_☉ star.
<e_14159_> But you can directly classify speed limit including numbers.
<SilverFox> !c e
<Qboid> (1,2): error CS0103: The name `e' does not exist in the current context
<UmbralRaptop> SilverFox: eggcentricity
<egg> !meow bofh^28
* Qboid meows at bofh^28
<e_14159_> SilverFox: There was a nice article with an example somewhere. Let me find that...
<egg> !wpn
* Qboid gives egg a neurosis which strongly resembles a vtable
<UmbralRaptop> Uh, since I dropped units, K is in m/s
<SilverFox> e_14159_, yeah but wouldn't that require me to just train with only 60km/h speedsigns, and then I'd haev to repeat for each speed limit?
<UmbralRaptop> Qboid: that's mean
<SilverFox> I want to explicitly train it on common ones, but have it able to just recognize speedsigns that it hasn't been trained on, like the 100km/h ones
<SilverFox> on the 2 hour drive to my gf's place there's a fuckton of roadsigns, so I'd just tape a camera to the windshield of my car and manually press a button on my raspi that would take a burst of pictures
<SilverFox> and then I'd use those pictures, crop em, and then train the system
<e_14159_> Ah. Well, the main example I have is the German Traffic Sign Benchmark, which contains 50,000 pictures. It has 20, 30, 50, 60, 70, 80, 100, and 120km/h signs labeled.
<e_14159_> For arbitrary speed limits, it's a bit more complicated; you can check out the Streetview House Numbers for inspiration
<SilverFox> also, the speedlimit signs in canada are like, square
<SilverFox> not the round circle ones
<SilverFox> our signs are rectangular anyways
<e_14159_> Ah, right. In that case, I'm not aware of pre-labeled datasets.
<SilverFox> I'm fine with taking the pictures myself
<egg> SilverFox: "which contains 50,000 pictures"
<e_14159_> On the order of 10k images?
<SilverFox> I predict my system can take an image at least every quarter of a second
<SilverFox> so 4/second, so like, 20-30 images every sign
<UmbralRaptop> I sense a problem with this dataset.
<SilverFox> I can't train it on a dataset that's pristine and clear, because that's not real-world, I need it trained at an angle that my car would realistically see
<egg> you'll be very good at recognizing the sign that you photographed dozens of times at least :-p
<SilverFox> if it could take the pictures itself everytime it senses a "roadsign" then that'd be neat, save me some work while driving anyways, would still have to comb through them afterwards but whatevs
<e_14159_> SilverFox: The issue is overfitting and amount of data. Probably, you need about 10k examples (more would be better). That's probably about 10-15 hours of labeling.
<SilverFox> I'll also like some winter-time datasets as well
<SilverFox> so this would be over the course of a few months
<SilverFox> perhaps I'll train a stop sign recognition system with a more standard dataset, as a trial of how well it can perform real-world
<SilverFox> would a 720p webcam be enough or should I go for a 1080p one?
<e_14159_> Again, the main time-hog will be labeling - I could probably throw together a prototype for the NN as-is in a day.
<SilverFox> what's included in the process of labelling?
<e_14159_> But I can talk a bit more tomorrow - for now, I'll head to bed (have to be awake to be training neural networks tomorrow :-) )
<egg> !wpn e_14159_
* Qboid gives e_14159_ a liquid-cooled scimitar which vaguely resembles a segfault
<egg> only vaguely
<e_14159_> Well, it is python after all...
<e_14159_> !wpn egg
* Qboid gives egg a gregarious morphism-like pyramid
<SilverFox> aw shit I'd have to work with python?
<SilverFox> fugg
<awang> Python isn't *that* bad, is it?
<SilverFox> probably not
<SilverFox> it's the one that fucks with spacing right?
<SilverFox> like
<SilverFox> {
<SilverFox> }
<SilverFox> would result in some stupid error or something?
<egg> I mean, no, that's the empty dict :-p
<egg> if True:
<egg> raise Kittens
<egg> will raise IndentationError though
<egg> and not Kittens or NameError
<SilverFox> does python have ternaries?
<whitequark> yes
<SilverFox> sick
<whitequark> x if c else y
<egg> value_if_true if condition else value_if_ninjwhitequark
<SilverFox> huh, a tad more readable than the C# one
<SilverFox> so that's neat
<egg> Ada 2012 even has those
<egg> (if condition then value_if_true else value_if_false)
<egg> iirc
* egg never used 2012
<SilverFox> is there like, a way of visually representing a neural net learning?
<SilverFox> I could make a twitch stream of it learning
<awang> egg: What have you used Ada for?
<egg> generating LEGO walls
<SilverFox> is labelling a dataset tedious or something?
<SilverFox> like just "this picture has a speed sign" and just repeat for each picture?
<SilverFox> or is it more like "this area has the sign in it" ?
<SilverFox> also, a monochrome image would be the best here, as colour is irrelevant
<SilverFox> so I can reduce filesize by a good chunk, like 2/3rds?
<egg> котяchrome
<egg> whitequark: still no news of котя? :-/
<whitequark> egg: nope
