Faster R-CNN: Down the rabbit hole of modern object detection
In this post, I'll explain the architecture of Faster R-CNN, starting with a high level overview, and then go over the details for each of the components. You'll be introduced to base networks, anchors as well as the region proposal network.
Cloud AutoML: Making AI accessible to every business
To make AI accessible to every business, we’re introducing Cloud AutoML, which helps businesses with limited ML expertise start building their own high-quality custom mo…
Introducing Preemptible GPUs
In May 2015, Google Cloud introduced Preemptible VM instances to dramatically change how you think about (and pay for) computational resources for high-throughput batch computing, machine learning, scientific and technical workloads. Then last year, we introduced lower pricing for Local SSDs attached to Preemptible…

Population-based training of neural networks
Neural networks have shown great success in everything from playing Go and Atari games to image recognition and language translation. But often overlooked is that the success of a neural network at a particular application is often determined by a series of choices made at the start of the research, including what…
TensorFlow Feature Columns
Welcome to Part 2 of a blog series that introduces TensorFlow Datasets and Estimators. We're devoting this article to —a data structure describing the features that an Estimator requires for training and inference. As you'll see, feature columns are very rich, enabling you to represent a diverse range of data.
