Lesson 2 - Official Topic

I signed up on azure for bing image search and provided my creidit card. I see no place to find my Azure_search_key. Did anybody have luck with this?

Hi @giacomov, I’m the founder of SeeMe.ai and a long time fan of Fast.ai.

Indeed, on our website you can only register for the waitlist for now, but we’re making an exception for members of the fast.ai forums. We created quick guides for both fastai v1 and v2, which takes you through all the steps of training (all credits to fast.ai), deploying, using and sharing your models.

To be clear, the platform is in development at the moment, but we would love for you to test it and provide feedback. You can add models, make predictions and share with friends or colleagues.

From the quick guides :slight_smile:

I would be love to talk about what you are trying to accomplish, and of course, if you have questions or need support, you can just reach out to me here.

All the best!
Jan

You can create an account from the sdk :slight_smile:

I’ll update the documentation to make it more clear!

Thank you!

Dear Mat,
i replace that code and it still gives me AccessDenied,
I changed the key with min

. Any idea @matdmiller? Best Regard

I wound say quantity of objects its neither of those. It is object detection aspect like YOLO or SSD.

Go here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/try/cognitive-services/my-apis/
(and make sure you’re signed into your account.)
You’ll see this…and directly below you’ll see your keys as “key #1: djk283ndi82”
(obviously I’m not taking a picture of the actual key)

yes thanks @sut, This is what I did…I don’t have that many endpoint btw…

@jeremy, Thanks for another excellent class!
I am curious how you think about the following aspect of the Czech Republic’s stabilizing case numbers. Given the 1~14 day incubation period, it seems highly unlikely that CR’s number of cases would stop its exponential rise until roughly a week after the mask mandate (instead of leveling off immediately).

Additionally, how do you reconcile the argument that pro-social mask-wearing greatly reduces R0 value with the fact that China has also historically led the mask trend, and their R0 values span the gamut.

Do you see the /images endpoint listed in your available endpoints as per Will’s post? If not I suspect you may not have correctly signed up for image search.

I just submitted Spanish subtitles for the masks video. This is my first time doing this sort of contribution so please, let me know if you observe anything odd about them.

Each small grey square is a visual representation of the pattern in the input image that caused a strong activation for that particular neuron. The over simplified answer to how this was generated, is they took a the activation from each of the images on the right and ran it backwards through the neural net with all other activations within that layer zeroed out. The large squares represent the top 9 images from the validation set that generated the largest activation of that neuron. They said the the choice in which neurons to display were random.

Please help, I’m trying to use Bing Image Search but I’m not getting my API key. This is what my screen shows

Apparently most people were wearing masks withing 3 days of the video appearing!

There’s a lot of other things you have to get right - not just masks. China botched the initial reaction, sadly.

I’m wondering, is this the book by Frank Harrell that Jeremy mentioned in the lecture?

I am having a hard time understanding the argument on p-values:

I am not sure I follow this. So a p-value tells me how likely is this data that I collected to be generated if the null hypothesis held. It doesn’t tell me anything about my hypothesis, we are making a jump from ‘this data is not random’ -> ‘my hypothesis explains the data to some extent therefore my hypothesis holds’? Is this the core of the argument? If I am reading this right, we are essentially saying: p-value is not the whole story? It cannot be used as a shortcut? Regardless the p-value, it is important how we do the modelling, the entire argument / train o thoughts counts?

A p-value tells us how likely we are to see the data given the null hypothesis holds, but it doesn’t tell us how likely we are to see the data given our hypothesis holds? Meaning, the p-value can be low, but our hypothesis can still be useless? There could be something else explaining the likely non-random data and we might be looking in the wrong place?

I’m trying to sign up with the 7 day trial and getting “Unable to add the product to your subscription. Please try again.” :expressionless:

Thanks for the information and yes I will take a look at that in the docs.

For those of you that (like me) had image failures on .webp images, you can install the webp software into python by doing:

pip install webp

Then the image failures go away

Jeremy’s public Covid19 video

Just a small correction. Zuzana Čaputová is a president, not prime minister.

BTW she was an inspiration for Czech masks for all movement (she wore a mask and encouraging it in a moment when Czech government ignored it and there were no masks for sale in Czechia). You can find many pictures on social media contrasting her, wearing a mask, to Czech top officials. (To give you some analogy, Zuzana Čaputová is for Czech people what Justin Trudeau is for Americans.)
