SentiSight SDK — Practical Guide for Image Recognition Projects

What it is

SentiSight SDK (by Neurotechnology) is a computer-vision toolkit and platform for building image-recognition solutions: image classification, object detection, instance segmentation, similarity search, pose/text recognition, background removal, and related workflows. It’s available as a web platform (SentiSight.ai) with REST API and as downloadable/offline models or SDKs for Windows/Linux.

Core features

• Labeling tools: bounding boxes, polygons, polylines, points, bitmaps, smart (AI-assisted) labeling and similarity-assisted labeling.
• Model types: pre-trained models (classification, NSFW, places, goods, etc.) and custom training for classification, object detection, segmentation.
• APIs & offline: REST API (file/URL/Base64 inputs), Swagger/OpenAPI spec, and downloadable offline model packages for local serving.
• Project collaboration: shared projects, user roles, time-tracking, export/import of labels (CSV/JSON/PNG/ZIP).
• Similarity search: 1vN and NvN image similarity queries.

Typical workflow (prescriptive)

1. Create project (classification/detection/segmentation) via web UI or API.
2. Upload images (file, URL, or Base64).
3. Label images (manual, smart labeling, or label-by-similarity).
4. Train model (monitor training stats and validation metrics).
5. Evaluate on held-out validation set and iterate labeling if needed.
6. Deploy: call predictions via REST API or download offline model and host locally for low-latency/privacy use.

Integration essentials

• Authentication: use X-Auth-token header for API calls.
• Prediction endpoint: platform provides model-specific endpoints (supporting multipart binary, URL, or Base64).
• Model download: from training page — host a local REST server to run predictions offline.
• Input/Output: JSON responses include labels, confidences, bounding boxes/polygons for detection/segmentation.

Practical tips

• Start with pre-trained models to prototype quickly.
• Use labeling-by-similarity and smart selection to speed annotation.
• Maintain a validation set and track per-class metrics to avoid class imbalance.
• For production/low-latency or sensitive data, prefer offline model hosting.
• Export labels and backups regularly; manage user permissions for large teams.
