The Software Revolution
The Software Revolution
By Sam Altman
In human history, there have been three great technological revolutions and many smaller ones. The three great ones are the agricultural revolution, the industrial revolution, and the one we are now in the middle of—the software revolution. Continue reading… “The Software Revolution”
Face detection algorithm about to revolutionize image search
Computer scientists Paul Viola and Michael Jones triggered a revolution in the field of computer face detection in 2001. Their breakthrough was an algorithm that could spot faces in an image in real time, the so-called Viola-Jones algorithm was so fast and simple that it was soon built into standard point and shoot cameras. Continue reading… “Face detection algorithm about to revolutionize image search”
