Ensure High Availability for Services: Endpoint Monitoring with AWS
HA and Monitoring Availability is a quality attribute that, in general, refers to the degree to which a system is in an operable state. High availability then describes the set up of infrastructure that prevents a single point of failure and decreases service downtime. In Taiwan AILabs, the Engine team focuses on assuring not only […]
Harmonia: an Open-source Federated Learning Framework
Federated learning is a machine learning method that enables multiple parties (e.g., mobile devices or organization) to collaboratively train a model orchestrated by a trustable central server while keeping data locally. It has gained a lot of attention recently due to the increasing awareness of data privacy. In Taiwan AI Labs, we started an open […]
Missing facts and source classifier of daily news
With the development of the Internet, it is convenient that one can get news from network rapidly. Nonetheless, it is also dangerous since a person might have a preference for a specific news medium over others, and the news medium may have its position to report news while missing some facts that they do not want people to know. For the purpose, we propose a system to detect missing facts from a news report.
Pop Music Transformer: Beat-based Modeling and Generation of Expressive Pop Piano Compositions
Paper (ACM Multimedia 2020): https://arxiv.org/abs/2002.00212 (pre-print) Code (GitHub): https://github.com/YatingMusic/remi We’ve developed Pop Music Transformer, a deep learning model that can generate pieces of expressive Pop piano music of several minutes. Unlike existing models for music composition, our model learns to compose music over a metrical structure defined in terms of bars, beats, and sub-beats. […]
The World’s First 360° AI Aerial Transportation Management
FREEWAY FILMA documentary highlighting locations along Highway No. 61, expected to be completed by the end of next year, uses artificial intelligence (AI) to create the rest of the footage in Chi Po-Lin’s style. Date: October 28, 2019 Taiwan AI Labs and the Directorate-General of Highways are to release a short film highlighting popular spots and […]
Telling Something from Your Face: Age, Beauty, and Anti-Spoofing
Figure 1. Demonstration of the facial age, beauty, pose estimation. In the last few decades, facial analysis has been thoroughly explored due to its huge commercial potential. For example, learning the semantic meaning of a human face can help us to target potential customers more easily and more efficient. While face recognition is a well-established […]
The Moonscape World Project
Designing an immersive tourism experience, using game elements and aerial cinematography In the beginning of June, Taiwan AI Labs released a demonstration of how aerial footage collected by a drone, combined with artificial intelligence and video processing, can be used to create a flight simulation based on a spontaneous user-defined starting and ending point. While […]

Label360: An Implementation of a 360 Segmentation Labelling Tool
The image above shows an example of the segmentation mask overlaying on top of the 360 image we got from our drone. This image is labeled by one of our in-house labelers. Semantic segmentation is one of the key problems in computer vision. It is important for image analysis tasks, and it paves the […]
Expanding Computer Vision Multi-View Stereo Capabilities: Automatic Generation of 3-dimensional Models via 360 Camera Footage
As the world we live in is three-dimension, 3D model is the most iconic representation of our world. 3D modeling allows people to see what they would not see when viewing in 2D. It gives people the ability to physically see how much real estate an object takes from all perspectives. But compared to generated […]
