ipad-target.py VS albumentations

Way back when the Nintendo Wii was brand new and hard to find, I wrote a script to scrape Target.com for store inventory and notify me if a nearby store restocked. A few years after that I revamped it to check on inventory for newly released iPad models. I put the code up on GitHub [1] and the CTO for a company that had large-scale store inventory checking as part of their product emailed me out of the blue after seeing my repository. A little while later, I replied back, interviewed and got a pretty good job offer out of it. I wound up not taking the offer, but in hindsight I probably should have.

You can use albumentations if you are comfortable with using open source libraries https://github.com/albumentations-team/albumentations

One of the members of the core team of our open-source library https://albumentations.ai/

It was not the only reason he was hired; it was a solid addition to his already good performance at the interviews.

Or at least that is what the hiring manager later said.

I am one of the creators and maintainers of https://albumentations.ai/.

Is something planned to support data augmentations? Something like https://albumentations.ai/

Here you go: https://albumentations.ai/

I think they should use some data augmentation techniques like I am using for Infinity AI if you wanna see more here. Note that most of these do not work for image generation.

Our second approach was a more automated one. Here the idea was to try out an image augmentation library, Albumentations, and use it for adversarial attacks. This time, instead of one-shot images, we applied the transformations at random time ranges. We chose for these transformations also to be more subtle than then one-shot images, such as vertical flips, grayscaling, downscaling, …

Check out albumentations. If your use case is segmentation, check out the offline augmentation of this project

I think this is the most popular open source project: https://github.com/albumentations-team/albumentations

You can also curate your own dataset by using open source images (https://universe.roboflow.com/search?q=faces%20images%3E1000) and open source augmentations (https://github.com/albumentations-team/albumentations). Or you can do use the augmentation UI (https://docs.roboflow.com/image-transformations/image-augmentation) to apply noise, blurring, shear, crop, etc.
