3 years ago Retail - Inventory management
You can think about Retail as the industry where you would like to offer the best experience to your customers regardless if they are buying the chocolate since it's their break, they are getting their weekly groceries, or remodeling their living room. With this in mind, Inventory Management will mean you will have to make sure that: A (very) large number of items (classes) have at least a decent number of each (samples/individuals) Those items are placed properly You won't spend eternity or a big number of people making sure this process is done properly Luckily, this is an ML lesson so we'll solve this using Computer Vision, more detailed Instance Segmentation, which means that we will identify "things" in a picture, label those "things" and count them. The process will become: The store clerk goes to the shelf Takes a picture of the shelf Our amazing app will analyze the image, get all the items, add them to the database and also show the clerk the results for possible corrections Done in just a walk around the store We can elevate this operation, of course, by putting cameras in all the places where we can check for inventory. If you want an out-of-the-box solution, Microsoft offers Custom Vision where we'll have just to label the data and they will help us with the model, cool, right?

To complete the lessons, we want to add an overview of ML as it is used in the real world. This will focus o classic ML only! So don't worry about Neural Networks for this curriculum. Pick a domain and write a paragraph about it as a reply to this issue, and I'll add it to the lesson and credit you!
