The availability of large-scale datasets such as ImageNet and the use of deep learning methodology to learn a hierarchy of visual features have been critical to the advancement and recent progress in many research and industrial applications of artificial intelligence. By making this collection of e-commerce images available to the research community, the goal is to facilitate more breakthroughs and continue the benefit derived through open access to quality data.
"AI has the potential to power distinctive customer experiences across our online and physical touch points. A key pillar of the AI strategy at SSENSE is finding and interacting with the right set of partners such as Element AI,” said Vincent Ho-Tin-Noe, Vice President of Product Management for SSENSE. “We are very excited to support fundamental AI research by opening a collection of labeled images consisting of the latest clothing, bags, shoes and accessories to the scientific community. We look forward to seeing the breakthroughs in AI research that this collection will enable.”
“Fashion is in the midst of a technological revolution and Machine Learning is key to unlocking a new universe of possibilities,” said Element AI CEO Jean François Gagné. “New technologies are within reach and are now closer to reality thanks to the comprehensive collection of e-commerce images SSENSE is releasing and Element AI’s ability to layer our advanced computer vision and machine learning abilities over the data. ECCV is the right conference to launch and see what’s possible within the Open Machine Learning community.”
