Tomasz Kulakowski, Chief Executive Officer & President of the Management Board at CodiLime. Tomasz has been one of the founders and the CEO at CodiLime (100% owner of deepsense.io). Tomasz’s leadership and entrepreneurial skills were recognized in numerous business contests including the Polish Business Roundtable’s (PRB) 2016 Jan Wejchert Award in the Vision and Innovation category and the 2014 EY Entrepreneur of the Year award (in the New Business category). For the last two years, his company CodiLime was ranked at the top of Deloitte’s CE Technology Fast 50 Report (2015 and 2016). Photo courtesy of CodiLime

Dstl provided 1 km x 1 km satellite images and the challenging task was to detect different types of objects, such as buildings, vehicles, trees or roads located in various environments.

Users had to find an algorithm or develop software that would help evaluate large and complex data sets in an innovative manner.

“Coming up with a model that can generalize well from a small training set of only 25 multispectral images was a really challenging task. Convolutional neural networks allowed us to create a reliable solution and take advantage of recent developments in the hot area of deep learning. We were excited to apply novel scientific solutions for practical problems and see their excellent performance,” said Robert Bogucki, Chief Science Officer at deepsense.io.

There were over 5,000 submissions on Kaggle, which translates into over £2.5m worth of research.

The results can be used in a great number of projects requiring a quick and accurate analysis of large data sets.

“I am proud of our machine learning team, who proved their data science skills in the Kaggle competition once again. We took such a high place due to the fact that we have outstanding and talented people who use appropriate methodology and tools, such as Neptune, developed by us, initially created for our data science purposes, which has now been shared with the market. Thanks to such non-commercial projects we can develop our know-how and continuously improve working techniques used later in business challenges,” said Piotr Niedzwiedz, CTO at deepsense.io.

Neptune is designed to give data science teams the freedom to explore, while remaining organized and collaborative throughout the creative process. Our goal is to provide the DevOps platform data scientists teams can use for research and commercial purposes. Photo courtesy of deepsense.io
