Image Recognizer App (WIP)



This was done for image identification of any particular classification of images that are identified by a script trained on data sets and has the intelligence to identify a good number of objects and give generic info about it.
The overview of the idea is to create an image that captures an image and delegates it to a server where the script(ML trained script) is present and get the processed result and publish it to the user. The delegation method is via a rest call from the app to the server port where the script is running.

The current plan is to run a python flask app in a certain port in the localhost and make Rest calls from the app(In the form of threads that run in the background.) and process information obtained from the server and store it in the database.

Step 1: Building a simple hello world flask app.

Step 2: RestFul API supported android application.

I didn't have a subscription to lynda.com. But there is a workaround to get access to a good set of tutorials for free.
You can go ahead and pay the subscription and use the services. But just in case you want to try the workaround. Please watch the following video and create a free subscription account on lynda.com

Note: Started working on it and currently put on hold due to other commitments. Will write follow up update posts when I get back to working on it. Until then, see you. Happy coding! :)

Concurrency in Go - Visualization

In this blog, let us discuss a program to visualize concurrency in Golang. Reference and source: Program 1: import " fmt " import " time " func main () { var Ball int Ball = 5 table := make ( chan int ) go player (table, 1 ) go player (table, 2 ) fmt. Println ( " mainstart: " , Ball) table <- Ball time. Sleep ( 1 * time. Second ) endres := <- table fmt. Println ( " mainend: " , endres) } func player ( table chan int , playernumber int ){ for { ball := <- table fmt. Println (playernumber, " : " ,ball) ball++ time. Sleep ( 100 * time. Millisecond ) table <- ball } } /* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Explanation: Please try to visualize on your own before reading the explanation. We will name the two goroutines that are called as player1_goroutine ...

Implementing a file monitoring script using python.

The idea is to implement a method where a user will be able to modify an xml file and the modifications will trigger a certain action in the script. This has to be implemented in python. WatchDogs is a python library that helps in file system monitoring. API reference : https://pythonhosted.org/watchdog/quickstart.html#quickstart Useful link :  http://brunorocha.org/python/watching-a-directory-for-file-changes-with-python.html The example scripts provided in the above links give a good headstart to play around with the file system and figure what is the exact use case that you want to achieve. Current use case:  The python script that I run is bundled as a container. There are mounted volumes in the container. So using an external script I am planning to modify the xml file and since the same file is modified inside the container, the python thread that is listening to the file modification event will trigger an action like sending a mail, make an entry to ...

Cycling to Dommasandra - 25km circuit

The following blog post not only inspired me to go for more cycling trips and write regularly because of some valuable, loving comments from friends, it also motivated many of my friends to try it out. https://rkinsideout.blogspot.in/2017/10/the-one-where-raj-went-for-cyclingfirst.html I and my close friend Padma whom I have known from my school days decided to go for cycling. The following week was a Diwali week and most of our friends' had already started leaving to hometowns. We decided to do it anyway. I chose a circuit behind Kadubeesanahalli, Sarjapur as I knew it would be pleasant and also have seen people cycling in these places. The Circuit It was a pleasant ride as it was cloudy was most of the time. From Panathur to Sarjapur road, there were more vehicles on the road, but after Carmelaram, there were fewer people on the road. The road condition also was good till Dommasandra with few patches here and there. Since the road was good, the bigger vehicles were spe...
