Edit: Aman mentioned it too. I spoke too soon :slight_smile:

We also have a PyTorch study group too where the PyTorch topics will be covered soon for anyone interested :tea:

Hopefully others will have a better idea, but my “big project” from that break between fastai versions, which took over my life was Chai Time Data Science :smiley:

Thanks Aman for doing these sessions. You have given us enough momentum to continue the learnings. Looking forward to stay connected in the Paper Reading Group.

How to get source code in vscode?

I have a question on Head. For Classification, we could use certain architectures (VGG, ResNet etc). But for Segmentation or Object Detection, we usually hv different base architectures like UNet / RetinaNet etc.

Most of the work is really in the Data Prep. Can you speak a bit about Data Prep step in Object Detection. In it, we have location of objects, but the architecture might use Anchors or other techniques. So we no longer have the 1:1 we used to have in Classification or even Segmentation. How do you go about building Dataset for Object Detection tasks where each architecture might have different losses / outputs (unlike Classification or Segmentation tasks).

One neat trick you can try-> Head over to fastai repo on GH. And press dot on your keyboard :slight_smile:

(It launches a VSCode instance, not powerful enough for DL but p great for reading source code)
