Georgia Tech Research in Computer Vision – ECCV 2022

Computer vision is a field of artificial intelligence that trains computers to interpret and understand the visual world. Using digital images from cameras and videos and deep learning models, machines can accurately identify and classify objects — and then implement various actions based on the machine’s understanding of images. Georgia Tech is advancing computer vision… Continue reading Georgia Tech Research in Computer Vision – ECCV 2022

Being Polite Can Be Essential to Getting a Loan

How can someone be persuaded to loan money to a random stranger on the internet? Does the requestor need to be polite or explain the impact the loan would have? Or perhaps they should demonstrate their credibility or use facts to help others understand their need. Does one of these strategies lead to success more… Continue reading Being Polite Can Be Essential to Getting a Loan
