Streamlining Amenity
Detection with AI
Challenge
The challenge was to streamline amenity detection at scale in a real estate setting using AI, with the goal of reducing the time and resources required for manual inspection and improving accuracy.
Solution
For the POC aimed at streamlining amenity detection with AI, our team at Labvent utilized the popular
computer vision framework called Detectron2. This open-source platform is built on top of PyTorch and
provides a simple interface for building, training, and deploying object detection models.
We implemented a custom object detection pipeline using Detectron2 that involved data preprocessing,
model training, and model evaluation. The pipeline was specifically designed to detect various
amenities within a given environment, such as swimming pools, tennis courts, and playgrounds.
To achieve this, we first collected and labeled a large dataset of images using a combination of
manual and semi-automated techniques. We then trained the object detection model using the labeled
data, and fine-tuned the model using transfer learning to improve its performance on our specific use
case.
Finally, we evaluated the model on a separate test dataset to ensure that it was accurately detecting
the amenities of interest. Overall, our POC showed promising results in streamlining amenity detection
with AI and has the potential to be scaled to real-world applications.
