Projell.com – Simple APIs for synthetic data generation
Hi, I'm Sumit Srivastava, founder of Projell.com . We made this after dealing with the data hell like low data availability, high data procuring cost, huge time sink for data collection, and privacy concerns over the user data.This prompted me to build an easy way to generate synthetic data for machine learning models. This primarily uses GANs, but we use techniques which are most efficient for...
This prompted me to build an easy way to generate synthetic data for machine learning models. This primarily uses GANs, but we use techniques which are most efficient for specific usecases.
Areas where we've found it useful are biomedical, drone imagery, sattelite imagery, retail, and autonomous mobility.
As already prominent in the ImageNet challenge, the state of the art is using synthetic data to gain higher accuracy.
Google, for their autonomous vehicles, used millions of miles of real driving data and billions of miles of synthetic data. It is clear where the world is moving towards.
I would be happy to share the tools with everyone since dealing with data is something we struggled with and don't want anyone to struggle anymore.

Ask HN: What are good resources for life advice?
What are other good resources to read from? Any source that are as good as PG essays on how to think in life?Sources can be videos, audios, recordings, essays, blogs, etc. Anything.
Or maybe it wasn't that obvious test case and interviewer was okay with you missing it?
Interviews can't be judged by the point of view of an interviewee. Move on to doing something else and wait for the results.
All the best!

I can take an umbrella if it'll rain soon but what can I do by knowing that temperature will rise by 1°C in two hours?
Genuinely curious.
Tone.js is really good at doing things related to music.
We were able to build a scratch type programming language for music, so that kids could learn programming and music at the same time.
I guess that can be done on non smart speakers too.
The alert thing is really cool! A unique way to handle kids.
