Project Update

Een groot deel van november tot en met begin december heb ik zoals in mijn vorige blogpost staat beschreven als stap 1-3 me hoofdzakelijk gefocust op het grondig bestuderen van Android. 

Hiervoor heb ik een extra cursus opgenomen op Udemy dit is een cursus met 20,5 uur video content en gedurende deze cursus heb ik ondertussen al 6 applicaties ontwikkelt die telkens groeien in complexiteit. Ik heb er voor gekozen om dit te doen zodat ik meteen juist kan beginnen aan de ontwikkeling waardoor ik geen hele dagen zal moeten verspillen aan het corrigeren van fouten die ik vroeg in de ontwikkeling heb gemaakt. Deze zijn namelijk veel tijdintensiever dan dat ik het meteen goed doe van in het begin. Dit is een best practice voor de meeste projecten.

Next Step

De volgende stap in het project is het effectief beginnen aan mijn eigen applicatie na wat ingewikkelde en in depth applicaties te hebben ontwikkelt met de online cursus en onderzoek te hebben gedaan naar de veel gebruikte en nuttige frameworks/api's die ik zal nodig hebben om mijn project te verwezenlijken. 

Ik veracht dat ik nog maximum de rest van deze week bezig ga zijn met de cursus en onderzoek af te ronden voor de Android applicatie en om dan over te stappen naar de ontwikkeling van mijn eigen applicatie.

AI Implementation

Image
To start with the AI implementation of this project, I researched some similar exisiting projects until I found an open-source project on GitHub  from Marko Arsenovic, that was comparing different results achieved by AI models using a plant disease dataset. This was an ideal starting point for my own project. A chart was also provided to clarify the results achieved by his project. I noticied that AlexNet achieved good results while not taking a lot of time to train as you can see in the chart below provided by Marko Arsenovic. This project used an open-source dataset provided by the R&D unit of Penn State University called PlantVillage, to train the neural networks in plant disease identification. This dataset includes 38 classifications each represented by more than 1000 pictures and spread over 14 plant types. In order to verify that our AI model is performing correctly it is important to keep some data for validation. Thus, 80% of plant disease images was used fo...

Development Tools

-
In this blogpost I will cover the different tools I have used during the development process of this project. General The tool below is used in all implementations. Github This free hosting website was used for version control. It uses the git open-source VCS (Version Controll System) enabling a combination of both local and centralized version control. This allows for easy and efficient management of progress in development. AIDE Implementation AIDE or the AI Diagnosis Engine includes the pre-trained AI model. This model allows the diagnosis engine from the previous section to calculate the disease prediction rankings. It also handles the image pre-processing of incoming requests. The following components are involved in this process. Anaconda Distribution This tool is a python package manager and provides the ability to easily manage, test and deploy development environments. Pycharm This IDE made by the software company JetBrains, is used for Python...

Future...

-
Recent developments in computer vision and artificial intelligence have made it possible to achieve classifications of complex patterns in images. These developments have made the successful implementation of this solution architecture achievable. My implementation does not represent a production-ready product as it is a PoC. However, it does prove that a product resulting from this solution is achievable. With this implementation it is safe to say that all technical requirements have been satisfied to an acceptable degree for this thesis. Future To achieve a production ready product a few improvements must be implemented.   Legal Compliance in general and specifically with regards to privacy/integrity (GDPR) and       Data Storage laws must be researched and implemented. 2.    A feature must be implemented in the AI implementation that allows for live training to support continuous improvement of the AI. This live training will lead to e...
