My path towards learning and using AI 


Formally trained as an astrophycisist, it was challenging for me to begin to work on everything concerning AI. As a researcher, it has been challenging to use current tools as black boxes, so here are my little "deeper dives" into everything concerning AI.

Labeling 


One point in common between observational astrophysics and AI is the capability we should have to handle big data sets. It is not surprising then to acknowledge that I felt comfortable gathering images and labeling them, in a project that was intended to carry out object detection. But as I knew absolutely nothing about this matter, I had to learn a bunch. These are the sources that helped me better understand how to label right, and the importance beyond a proper and consistent labeling.
