I'm a bit of an eclectic mess 🙂 I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

@hobs Yep, most of my posts tend to be either boost, or papers for the day that I found interesting 🙂 I do warn people about this in my profile page but most people just see one or two papers I’ve posted about and assume that they were my papers …

@hobs Don’t know if you want all the details (and this kind of evolved over time) but I originally created a system which would get the RSS feed for the cs.CV category on arXiv and use ML to summarize it for me.

But I didn’t like the summaries since they didn’t really tell me much 😛 So, I modified the system to download the PDF papers and to give me an overview of the papers each day. From that, I went to adding a form to the paper view so that I can post a summary and a page screen grab to Mastodon.

The posting system kind of fell by the wayside (I post manually now) due to various issues, but I also added a system which tracks the papers I skip and the ones I post about so that I can track things. That’s where it stands since I now post daily about new papers in the cs.CV category since some people seem to find that useful 🙂

16 papers posted out of 55 total in the cs.CV category on arXiv.org and that concludes the reading of the papers for another week!

See y'all next week 🙂

"Animating Still Images. (arXiv:2209.10497v2 [cs.CV] UPDATED)" — A method for imparting motion to a still 2D image which uses deep learning to segment part of the image as the subject, uses in-paining to complete the background, and then adds animation to the subject.

Another of my fluid abstractions. 'Awestruck.' Think I should just call them my restlessness series since i only draw them when I'm stuck wanting to do 5 things at once and not being able to prioritize.

I went to two exhibits this week; one by Sidne Teske, and another by Phyllis Shafer; my second visit before the show closes tomorrow. So fortunate to have opportunities to see amazing artwork in person. Always make me want to hurry home and get to work in my studio. Artwork is hard work.
