Accurate predictions of how humans respond in psychology experiments are valuable in and of themselves: For example, scientists could use Centaur to pilot their experiments on a computer before recruiting, and paying, human participants. In their…
Organizations deploying video monitoring systems face a critical challenge: processing continuous video streams while maintaining accurate situational awareness. Traditional monitoring approaches that use rule-based detection or basic computer vision frequently miss important events or generate excessive false positives, leading to operational inefficiencies and alert fatigue. In this post, we show how to build a fully…
Software as a service (SaaS) companies managing multiple tenants face a critical challenge: efficiently extracting meaningful insights from vast document collections while controlling costs. Traditional approaches often lead to unnecessary spending on unused storage and processing resources, impacting both operational efficiency and profitability. Organizations need solutions that intelligently scale processing and storage resources based on…
