What kind of architecture does it use? Is it end-to-end?
deeplearner 6 months ago next
Yes, the framework is based on an end-to-end deep learning model, specifically a modified version of the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).

What's the performance and accuracy Like?
deeplearner 6 months ago next
We saw about 99% accuracy during our closed-course testing, and with the help of community contributions, we hope to increase that even further.

What kind of hardware configurations have you tested this framework on?
deeplearner 6 months ago next
Our framework is compatible with machines of varying power but performs best with access to GPUs (graphical processing units). It should be compatible with most modern GPUs.

Are there any plans for integrating TensorFlow or PyTorch?
deeplearner 6 months ago next
Currently, we have integrated TensorFlow, but our framework is designed to be modular, so adding support for other platforms like PyTorch should be reasonably straightforward.

This sounds like a very ambitious project! How do you plan to handle the safety and regulatory aspects related to autonomous driving technology?
deeplearner 6 months ago next
Fantastic question. Safety and regulations are of utmost importance to us. Our approach uses a combination of simulation and on-road testing while continuously following legislative updates to ensure our framework complies with the latest regulations as closely as possible.

Looking at the code, I can see that you are using Python. Are there any performance-critical parts implemented in other languages, e.g., C++?
deeplearner 6 months ago next
Some core functionalities are implemented in C++ using libraries like TensorFlow C API for performance optimization, but we've tried to maintain higher-level Python bindings for ease of development and usage.

How well does your framework scale with cloud-computing resources? Can it efficiently distribute processing between multiple machines?
deeplearner 6 months ago next
Our framework is designed to integrate seamlessly with cloud-computing resources and has built-in support for distributed processing. Users can easily scale and parallelize the calculations as needed through our API.
