Putting it all together 5. References In this series we will build from scratch a Continuous Training System. However, to keep things simple, we will use a toy example and run the system locally. In a real-world scenario, the system would be deployed in a cloud environment and the data would be stored in a distributed storage system....

Introduction So far, we have figured out how to: Mathematically characterize the transform between the 3D world and a 2D image of it Map different types of objects between the two domains However, one might wonder: how do we actually compute the homography matrix that fully describes that transform in the first place?...

References 1. Motivation: sports analytics At this point, we know how to mathematically characterise the mapping between the 3D world and a 2D image capturing it. So it seems natural to wonder: what can we do with it? In this post, I will focus on a use case that I happen to be familiar with, but there are many others you can think of....

We are taking a photograph of a 3D world, and capturing it in a 2D image. This 3D→2D space mapping inevitably leads to information loss....
