Hi, I've got a couple of questions regarding the model you've trained. First of all, I'm looking for the model file, which I can't seem to find. Am I missing something, or is it just not present in the dir? Number two. Which and how many bricks have it been trained on? Has it been trained on colors too I wonder? Finally I wonder how successful the brickognize model is compared to yours? Have you measured success rates or the like, or is the tests you've carried out primarily qualitatively in nature? |

Hi there, sorry it took a bit before I was able to get back to you. Summer time is a bit crazy over here 😎 If I remember correctly, the model is not in the repo because it is quite big. Also, I didn't feel like it was "finished enough" to publish it. The model is trained on the images in the repository, so it is only 3 types of bricks. I haven't bothered with colors, although I think that should be fairly easy to do. If you are only looking at the 3 bricks it is trained on, the model is better, however that doesn't mean much. Brickognize is definitely better. It is probably using a more modern base model and improved fine tuning. I think you should see the model I trained as a starting point. It is been quite some time since I worked on it, so there's nothing in there that can be even remotely considered state of the art. But it is a good tutorial to get you started. |

BTW if you are interested in cooperating to make the model better. Let me know. I have a ton of ideas. I just don't have the time to implement them. |

Hmmm, very interesting information. I believe in using existing tools to the limits before developing your own, but in time, this is probably the route I'll have to travel down, and then I'd love to collaborate! |

While I agree, I don't like the model that Brickognize is using. There is not much information available on the person or company that runs it. Everything is closed and by using the service, you also allow them to use your images, without them sharing anything back (except for their service, which is currently free but could change at any moment) Mind you, I have not spoken with any one on the Brickognize team, so there might be perfectly valid reasons for what they are doing. And their service is top notch. Usually you get a quick response with very accurate results. So I would definitely recommend them to get started. The only thing I would also recommend is to keep any pictures you take. They are going to be invaluable training data somewhere down the line. (note that Bricklink's AI efforts are similarly completely closed. So I feel a little guilty singling out Brickognize. I really want to foster some more cooperation in the space since most of use are probably doing this for fun, not for money) |

Very good points, especially regarding saving the images. That is invaluable advice and something that I didn't at all think about. |
