New Data and Model Workflows from Voxel51 Accelerate Visual AI Development for Enterprises

Voxel51, the leading solution for building visual AI applications, today unveiled three powerful built-in workflows to streamline data curation and model analysis, enabling enterprise teams to build visual AI applications at the scale and efficiency critical for real-world production. Through Voxel51's commercial offering, FiftyOne Enterprise, these workflows simplify the labor-intensive processes of extracting, analyzing, and applying insights during data curation and model refinement, addressing a major challenge in large-scale data pipelines.

Organizations today manage billions of visual data samples to develop innovative AI applications that understand and interact with the real world. However, the quality of data significantly impacts the reliability of AI models. Without data-centric workflows and robust tooling, teams struggle to understand their data and model weaknesses and the steps to improving them. Successfully scaling these workflows to production-grade datasets is key to ensuring AI systems perform accurately in real-world environments. 

Data Curation and Model Analysis Innovation

Voxel51's built-in data curation and model analysis workflows were developed to reinvent how visual data is used to develop AI models and applications. With this release, FiftyOne Enterprise delivers an integrated solution that can extract valuable intelligence from diverse visual data and automate the iterative processes of using that data to build dependable AI models. Exhibiting exceptional ease-of-use and flexibility for how AI builders work, these new workflows provide the ability to diagnose and resolve model failures, detect edge case scenarios, and enhance datasets to close critical data gaps for successfully developing visual AI applications.

"It's impossible to develop solid visual AI at the speed and scale necessary to stay competitive when you're struggling to piece together information and understand the right actions to improve data and model quality," said Voxel51 co-founder and CEO Brian Moore. "These built-in workflows reduce the burden and promote streamlined ML development, enabling AI teams to focus on what's important: delivering reliable AI models for their production use cases." Organizations using FiftyOne have reported up to 50% improvement in productivity and up to 30% gains in model accuracy.

New FiftyOne Enterprise Workflows 

Data Quality

Provides a streamlined approach to identifying common data quality issues (e.g., near duplicates, blurry and bright samples, fake images), enabling users to understand and take action to address them. By systematically identifying and addressing underlying data quality issues, ML teams can add efficiencies to their data workflow and avoid downstream model performance issues.

Data Lens

Unlocks direct and fast access to billions of data samples residing in user-designated external data sources (e.g., data lakes) to query, preview, and select ones of interest to import directly into FiftyOne datasets. This workflow enables faster data curation for enterprise-size data pipelines, making augmenting datasets to address data gaps and improving model performance easier and more efficient.

Model Evaluation

Provides an out-of-the-box experience for performing model evaluation and analyzing model metrics and predictions across multiple model runs. The Model Evaluation workflow enables users to understand model strengths and weaknesses down to the sample level with a few button clicks, making model comparison and analysis easier and enabling AI builders to take corrective action to fine-tune their data and models.

FiftyOne’s Enterprise workflows build upon the foundation that has already empowered tens of thousands of AI builders and their teams across diverse use cases. From revolutionizing manufacturing with pinpoint precision that boosts quality and productivity to enabling cutting-edge medical systems that instantly spot anomalies and guide surgical procedures with unerring accuracy, FiftyOne Enterprise is accelerating the development of AI applications across industries. Leading enterprises, including LG Electronics, Berkshire Grey, and Precision Planting, are leveraging FiftyOne Enterprise to transform their visual AI initiatives from concept to production reality.
