Using Edge Impulse to train an image and audio recognition model
Edge Impulse is an incredibly powerful tool which can be quickly used to train many kinds of models. Here we will make a demonstration of using transfer learning to train an image model to tell the difference between different images. We will demonstrate how Edge Impulse smooths data collection, model generation and live testing and how the models can be easily deployed to an edge device. As a bonus I will also demonstrate an audio recognition model.

Gary Hutson, Head of Machine Learning @ Crisp
Image generation with stable diffusion
A journey through image generation with stable diffusion. This will teach you how to fine tune a stable diffusion model to generate images with a pretrained diffusion model backbone.
