EXPERTS IN HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTER VISION AND DEEP LEARNING

We collaborate with decision-makers and engineers to deliver cost-effective, efficient computer vision and video analytics solutions.
In the rapidly evolving field of computer vision, the cost factor is pivotal in determining the feasibility and adoption of new technologies. Due to their prohibitive costs, cutting-edge computer vision solutions are often rendered impractical or "born dead". This is particularly true in scenarios where the computational resources or specialized hardware required are costly. High costs not only limit the accessibility of these technologies to a broader market but also stifle innovation by restricting research and development to well-funded entities. This creates a significant barrier to entry, preventing smaller companies and researchers from contributing to the field's advancement.

Optimization in computer vision, therefore, emerges as a game changer. By enhancing the efficiency of algorithms and reducing the need for expensive hardware, it democratizes access to advanced computer vision capabilities. Efficient algorithms can run on affordable hardware, broadening the scope of potential applications and users. This not only makes the technology more accessible but also spurs innovation by allowing a diverse range of players to participate in the development and application of computer vision.

Neural Networks

We help customers to choose, train, modify, validate, and optimize deep neural networks to achieve top-level quality and performance.

  • Model Training

    Our training approach goes beyond the conventional methods that rely on pre-arranged datasets. We incorporate advanced techniques, including human-guided training, the use of synthetic data, enhanced augmentation processes, and strategic heuristics.

    We meticulously craft our training strategy to ensure more efficient models achieve the targeted quality and processing speed.

  • Model Optimization

    We assist our clients in reducing their resource requirements by refining models through quantization, structural pruning, and modifications in model design.

    Our methods extend to the comparative analysis of various models, aiming to identify the most resource-efficient option within a model family or across diverse models.

    Additionally, we specialize in optimizing models for TensorRT, which stands as the premier inference environment for CUDA runtime.

  • Model Validation

    Model validation is an essential phase in the training of neural networks. It guarantees that the model excels with the training data and maintains its performance with new, unexposed data.

    This process entails establishing metrics that are significant from both a data science perspective and in terms of business process requirements, particularly in real-world applications.

    Our approach to validation involves designing experiments that test individual models and entire pipelines.
