May 3rd 2021 – With over 11 man-years of working, and tinkering, long into the night, I am pleased to announce we have hit version 1.0. Following quickly after the release of ClearML 0.17.5, we added the last remaining features we felt 1.0 needed. Namely multi-model support, as well as improved batch operations. With these in place, the choice was clear. The next version released should be the baseline moving forward.
Few things in life are certain, least of all roadmaps. There is a saying I love, apart from the one above, which says “if you want to hear God laugh, tell him/her your plans”. Nowhere is that more true than in software development in a startup. There are grand ideas put forward, people often vie with one another, in short, life happens.
Although the title might sound like a collaboration of two music bands with really bad names, this blog is all about understanding how computer vision and machine learning can be used to improve safety and security in a harsh and dangerous environment of a construction site. The construction industry is one of the most dangerous industries according to the common stats from OSHA.
One of the most leading questions we often receive is, “How does ClearML Compare to..”. I am sure this is the same for any Open Source product. People always want to find the best. The sad truth is, of course, there usually is no “right answer”. What one person needs, another may not. I am sure that, whichever language you speak natively, there is some saying. In English it would be “one mans rubbish, is another mans gold”.
