anomalib VS Pandas

This talk highlights the role of Anomalib, an open-source deep learning framework, in advancing anomaly detection within AI systems, particularly showcased at the upcoming CVPR Visual Anomaly and Novelty Detection (VAND) workshop. Anomalib integrates advanced algorithms and tools to facilitate both academic research and practical applications in sectors like manufacturing, healthcare, and security. It features capabilities such as experiment tracking, model optimization, and scalable deployment solutions. Additionally, the discussion will include Anomalib’s participation in the VAND challenge, focusing on robust real-world applications and few-shot learning for anomaly detection.

Then, when it comes to semi-supervised learning for anomaly detection, I had positive experiences with Anomalib which offers a robust library dedicated to deep learning anomaly detection algorithms. They implemented the latest models with PyTorch and offer tools to benchmark their performance.

Anomalib is an open-source library for unsupervised anomaly detection in images. It offers a collection of state-of-the-art models that can be trained on your specific images.

Anomalib is an open-source deep learning library developed by Intel that makes it easy to benchmark different anomaly detection algorithms on both public and custom datasets, all by simply modifying a config file. As the largest public collection of anomaly detection algorithms and datasets, it has a strong focus on image-based anomaly detection. It’s a comprehensive, end-to-end solution that includes cutting-edge algorithms, relevant evaluation methods, prediction visualizations, hyperparameter optimization, and inference deployment code with Intel’s OpenVINO Toolkit.

Anomaly detection typically refers to the task of finding unusual or rare items that deviate significantly from what is considered to be the "normal" majority. In this blogpost, we look at image anomalies using PatchCore. Next to indicating which images are anomalous, PatchCore also identifies the most anomalous pixel regions within each image. One big advantage of PatchCore is that it only requires normal images for training, making it attractive for many use cases where abnormal images are rare or expensive to acquire. In some cases, we don't even know all the unusual patterns that we might encounter and training a supervised model is not an option. One example use case is the detection of defects in industrial manufacturing, where most defects are rare by definition as production lines are optimised to produce as few of them as possible. Recent approaches have made significant progress on anomaly detection in images, as demonstrated on the MVTec industrial benchmark dataset. PatchCore, presented at CVPR 2022, is one of the frontrunners in this field. In this blog post we first dive into the inner workings of PatchCore. Next, we apply it to an example in medical imaging to gauge its applicability outside of industrial examples. We use the anomalib library, which was developed by Intel and offers ready-to-use implementations of many recent image anomaly detection methods.

Python is a natural fit for serverless development. It boasts a vast array of libraries, including Powertools for AWS and robust libraries for data engineers. Its versatility and excellent developer experience make it a top choice for serverless projects, offering a seamless and enjoyable development experience.

In data analysis, managing the structure and layout of data before analyzing them is crucial. Python offers versatile tools to manipulate data, including the often-used Pandas reset_index() method.

Dash is a Python framework that enables you to build interactive frontend applications without writing a single line of Javascript. Internally and in projects we like to use it in order to build a quick proof of concept for data driven applications because of the nice integration with Plotly and pandas. For this post, I'm going to assume that you're already familiar with Dash and won't explain that part in detail. Instead, we'll focus on what's necessary to make it run serverless.

there is pull request to integrate in both pydantic extra types and into pandas cose [1]

Last year I worked through the challenges using VisiData, Datasette, and Pandas. I walked through my thought process and solutions in a series of posts.

pandas: A library for data analysis in Python

Data analysis involves scrutinizing datasets for class imbalances or protected features and understanding their correlations and representations. A classical tool like pandas would be my obvious choice for most of the analysis, and I would use OpenCV or Scikit-Image for image-related tasks.

Pandas, a powerful data manipulation library in Python, has become an essential tool for data scientists and analysts. One of its key functions is read_csv(), which allows users to read data from CSV (Comma-Separated Values) files into a Pandas DataFrame. In this tutorial, brought to you by CodesWithPankaj.com, we will explore the intricacies of read_csv() with clear examples to help you harness its full potential.

So, what I'd like to do is write a documentation package in Python to recreate what I've lost. I plan to build upon the fantastic python-docx and docxtpl packages, and I'll probably rely on pandas from much of the tabular stuff. Here are the features I intend to include:
