Training Details (Skip this part if you arent interested in AI programming) - I used 2000 synthetic 512x512 px training images (plus 200 synthetic validation images) - I did ZERO training on real images - I trained the "heads" for 4 epochs of 500 steps and the full network for another 4 epochs - Resnet50 backbone (Resnet101 caused OOM errors) using COCO pre-trained weights - Training took about 20 minutes on my computer - Final losses after the 8th epoch: loss: 0.3615 - rpn_class_loss: 0.0023 - rpn_bbox_loss: 0.1823 - mrcnn_class_loss: 0.0232 - mrcnn_bbox_loss: 0.0636 - mrcnn_mask_loss: 0.0901 - val_loss: 0.3261 - val_rpn_class_loss: 0.0013 - val_rpn_bbox_loss: 0.1875 - val_mrcnn_class_loss: 0.0043 - val_mrcnn_bbox_loss: 0.0535 - val_mrcnn_mask_loss: 0.0794 Results It's far from perfect, and probably isn't practical to bolt onto a robot right now, but with more training and improvements in GPU hardware, I think this could be a viable solution to pick up cigarette butts on a huge scale

Hierarchical clustering analysis is an algorithm used to partition a set of data into multiple distinct clusters
My wife and I had both lived aboard for a long time and wanted to get married somewhere that was meaningful to both of us, so we brought the boat up from Ash Island to here, where the guests could sit on the bank and watch while we had a ceremony on the roof of the boat
This gave the FDA the authority to regulate the manufacturing, distribution, and marketing of tobacco products
To be sure we arent driving under the influence, its best not to estimate
