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 ...

The one where Raj went for Cycling (First time Experience - 50km circuit)

The Past: I met a friend Srini in violin class and got to know that he goes for cycling with a bunch of explorers once in a month. I was excited and told him I had a cycle but haven't done cycling and would love to try. So he told me he will inform when they go for a ride. The Present:  Srini texts me that they were planning a morning ride of approx 50-60km circuit. Even though I was excited, I was a bit nervous if I could push myself for that far. I did think of it for a while and I was like "If not now, then when??? ". I said yes. It was a Sunday morning that we started off. The weather in Bangalore was a big threat as it was raining pretty consistently for the past fortnight. We trusted few weather reports which stated that there is not going to be any rain in the morning and there might be slight rain in the afternoon. Srini started from HSR, two of friends joined in Bellandur, I joined in Kadubeesanahalli junction and two more joined in ISRO junction. The r...

Python run watchdog along with a flash app

The pre-requisite for understanding this blog post would be the following post. Please go through the following to set the context to understand what is discussed in this post. https://rkinsideout.blogspot.in/2017/10/implementing-file-monitoring-script.html Problem : The flask app was running and was responding to a bunch of curl commands. This was single process thread that was working. When the watchdog api was integrated and initiated with the flask program, the problem was that the watchdog thread was started and the flask app was never started. It was started only when the watchdog thread ended. Since we want both the threads to be running, the watchdog process has to run in the background and the flask app to should run normally so that both functionalities are available for use. Python thread and threading are the options available. The "thread" starts a thread and waits for it to complete before proceeding with the rest of the flow to get execute...
