This week's newsletter spotlights Voxel51's latest integrations, key resources, upcoming hackathons, and a list of upcoming events.

FiftyOne 1.0 is now available!

This is a major milestone for AI builders working with visual data. With over 2M installs, FiftyOne has been making life easier for developers and this new release takes it even further.

New features

  • Open source ML techniques: FiftyOne Brain ๐Ÿง , the core component of the FiftyOne ecosystem that implements the AI/ML capabilities that enable users to automatically analyze and manipulate their datasets and models, is now fully open source!

  • Modal panels: weโ€™ve introduced the ability to develop and use โ€œmicroโ€ plugins that explore individual data samples and scenes, which complements FiftyOneโ€™s existing support for custom โ€œmacroโ€ plugins that explore entire datasets (example panels coming soon!)

  • Change tracking: all FiftyOne datasets now have automatically populated created_at/last_modified_at fields on their samples, enhancing the capability of FiftyOne as a system of record for your visual AI data.

  • Remote zoo models: FiftyOne now natively supports downloading and inferencing with custom models whose definitions are stored in GitHub, complementing the hundreds of natively available models and existing integrations with popular frameworks like Hugging Face Hub and Ultralytics.

  • Remote zoo datasets: FiftyOne also now natively supports loading datasets whose download/preparation instructions are stored in GitHub, completing the dozens of natively available datasets and existing integrations with popular data standards.

Model updates

Selected other goodies

  • Added support for creating summary fields to optimize queries on large datasets with many objects #4765

  • Added dozens of builtin operators for performing common operations directly from the App #4830
