Interface Builder Needs a Swift Upgrade
Swift materialized four years ago at WWDC in June 2014. At the outset, the language was intriguing, but the tooling was…let’s say minimal. Xcode has steadily improved since then — we can even refactor now! But one big chunk of the toolset hasn’t been Swiftified. Interface Builder (IB) stands stoic and steadfast in the face of change.

Neural Networks with Structured Data
In my last post I shared how to train an image classifier on your own image using the fastai library. To continue our machine learning journey, we will look today at how to train a model on structured data like that found in a database or a spreadsheet. Specifically, we will look at how to turn a list of categorical and continuous variables into a prediction

Computer Vision & Machine Vision 101
Today we’re back again sharing the basics of two not-so-emergent technology concepts and breaking down the basics between each: computer vision and machine vision. It is possible that you’re reading this blog and have never heard of computer vision or machine vision. The concepts are well-known and discussed within the technology but the same can’t be said for the

Simple Image Classification with fast.ai
Today’s blog post will demonstrate some basic neural network code that uses the fast.ai library to train a model to categorize images into one of n categories and get predictions on single images. You can take this code and change it to train the model on any image categories you would like. You can take this code and change it to train the model

In this blog, we’ll break down the basics and share how you’re experiencing these technologies in ways you may not have even realized. We can’t talk about machine learning without first discussing artificial intelligence.

Acres of Diamonds: Taking Responsibility to Act on Opportunity
Recently, I had the opportunity to speak at a STEM in the Park + NetApp event to bring about 100 middle school girls to view CODEGIRL. Both organizations are doing amazing work introducing young ladies to the STEM fields. What struck me most was the volunteerism, camaraderie and eagerness to learn among the kids.
