From the Industry

“Anyone can now create an AI model to process images.” says Andrew Ng, Landing AI Founder and CEO. By offering a free trial of their product LandingLens, Ng is trying to “ democratize the creation of artificial intelligence among companies large and small.” according to?an article?in Datanami.

?Continuing with Ng’s data-centric philosophy, LandingLens algorithms work with even a small amount of data and help companies who would otherwise need large datasets for their models. Ultimately, LandingLens hopes customers will sign up for their pay-as-you-go service allowing companies with or without machine learning teams access to AI by unlocking “the value of getting computers to see”.??

Paper Review: Production-Ready Face Re-Aging for Visual Effects

Digital re-aging of faces in video involves the process of altering the appearance of a person in a video to make them look younger or older. This can be a very complex and challenging process.

To put it simply, a face re-aging model should be able to accurately alter the age of the person while maintaining other aspects of the image (identity, background, pose, facial expression, etc). Despite significant advancements in deep learning (DL) based face re-aging, frame-by-frame re-aging faces models struggle to meet these objectives.?
