I have been trying to use custom keyword using the speech devices sdk but have had problems when I use my own custom keyword and deploy to android phone (the standard ones are better but still not as good as I need or would expect in commercial application). The screen shots on linked page implies that you can "Add training data to train keyword model" however that doesn't appear when I use the speech studio.
My suspicion is that the generated speech files that are automatically created by the speech studio are not good enough to train model for users with accents (like myself).
We have not yet widely enabled the KWS model adaption.
The Custom Keyword generated from the portal aims to be sufficient for initial trial, it is not currently at the level for commercial application.
We are enabling the ability to upload data to adapt the model, this is being trialed with customers before wider roll-out. It is an upload on the Custom Keyword page and not the Custom Speech page.
Thank you for using the speech SDK!
Did you follow the instructions here:

I would like to implement a webcrawler that would be able to, given a photo of an object, search for it in a specific website.
I'm looking into Firebase ML Kit to do the job, more specificaly the Objects detection section but it is still unclear to me if that would be the right tool.
Anyone knows how could I implement that?
Comparing photos (or searching for photos) is not a use-case that ML Kit offers a pre-built model for.
The closest I can think of is running the ML Kit label extraction model on both images, and then checking if both return the same label(s). But even then you need to have all photo's locally already.
If you want something closer, you'll have to build a model yourself. But even then, you're likely going to need to build an extensive web service that searches web sites and pre-labels a lot of images.
Hi and thank you for looking into this.
(Disclaimer: I have little-to-no technical background and would like to find the least complex solution. Ideally, only "connecting" different out-of-the-box components and no coding.)
HIGH-LEVEL PROBLEM:
I have trained a model for text classification using Google AutoML. I want to make this model available on a website, ie I want to enable visitors to enter their text and to receive the model's predicted class.
CONSIDERATIONS SO FAR: AutoML allows us to deploy the model via REST API and I understand that what I want are the API's PUT and GET function (right?). Ideally, I would use some form of plug-in or script to create an input field for the user which accepts the PUT and then delivers the GET.
Are you aware of any services for this? I'm also happy to host the website in an content management system like WordPress.
I'm very open regarding other approaches to solving my problem and highly appreciate any constructive input.
Many thanks!

EDIT Jan 10 There is another question related to this and a depo is shared which supposedly provided a solution. I'm not able to access the depo but the question might help you to understand my issue. Is there a way to use Googles AutoML with JavaScript?
EDIT Jan 16 I have learned that in order to provide the input to the model the POST function could be used instead of the PUT.
I've a couple training courses that I sometimes provide to clients. They are both a few text pages + 20-25 videos + a link out to take an exam in my LMS.
My preference has always been to provide embed links to the videos, as it allows us to easily push out updates. Then the client embeds that in their own LMS / training package (however they want). But two clients are requesting the courses are delivered in a SCORM package to be delivered on their LMS.
I'm familiar with the authoring tools like Captivate and Storyline Articulate. I'm not a huge fan as they feel like canned powerpoints. I'm also not sure that's what the client wants.
Two questions:
(1) My understanding is I can package a SCORM file manually. How does that content present itself when put into an LMS? Would it present slide-by-slide in a single panel (similar to how I see storyline work) or is it distributed based on how the LMS is set-up?
(2) Would doing it manually be advantageous in any way?
Couple things to watch out for -
Simply zipping your content folder with a imsmanifest.xml maybe not put the files in the root of the zip like the LMS may possibly expect. Instead you end up with folder/imsmanifest.xml vs /imsmanifest.xml. Something to watch out for, but some LMS's do not care.
You can manually edit the imsmanifest.xml, but I'd work to validate it. Performing this task in editors that do not provide feedback can lead to validation issues.
Content Packaging is part of it, but the LMS may have its own subset of additional options like how to launch the content (popup, new window/tab, or in a IFRAME). They may have additional scoring/attempts and other settings outside of what the SCORM CAM provides.
Aside from familiarizing yourself with the IMS Manifest format and the above cautionary items you can do do this without to many hiccups.
There is a packager on https://cybercussion.com if you'd like to demo that after you have prepared your Shareable Content Object.

I need to draw a more elaborate Mindmap to present my test strategy to my client. I have no experience of creating mind map with any tool.
Can someone suggest any good mindmap making tool?
For "pure" mind mapping I would suggest Freeplane (free and open source). I know people using Freeplane for professional test case generation. Very helpful in this respect are
extensive scripting support that can be used to support testcase entry and for customized exports
multiple fields per node that can be used for different purposes: attributes (tabular data), notes, detail
If your primary focus is the generation of presentations then you should probably use a different tool.
For more elaborate mindmap I would suggest XMind.
With XMind you can even create testcases inside your mindmap using its matrix features. There are lots more features like:
Timeline
Gantt view
Filters
Drilldown
Try https://github.com/mindolph/Mindolph , this desktop application provides features that you can create and manage mind map easily.
You may try online service MindMup or desktop ConceptDraw MINDMAP. Though the first one is not that professional and intuitive as ConceptDraw tool, it is free. The second product has a 21-day trial period, brainstorm mode, multiple hyperlinks, export to MS PowerPoint or Web pages and so on.
Having toyed with the concept in the past, I am interested in using multivariate testing on my companies Sitecore website. There are a number of places where I feel we can definitely improve sales through the use of A/B testing in:
Running two entirely different templates to see what layouts work better for users
Running a number of different Sublayouts (forms) on the site to see which ones people are more likely to fill out
Trialling different content - Running two different sets of copy to see if users are more likely to stay on the page
I want to use the Marketing Suite within Sitecore, and I want to be able to measure who visits pages more and count, out of two or more sublayout forms, which form is used the most. Sadly, I have no experience with the OMS and am struggling to see how one actually implements these things.
Let's say I have a content item, with a bunch of sublayouts attached to it within its template. Can someone help guide me towards a way of achiving the three things I want to run multivariate testing on?
EDIT: On the subject of the two sublayouts I want to test on a template; I have two sublayouts, which are both simple ASP.NET email forms. Once a user fills in the form the contents of the form are written to a database and an email (using Sitecore.Context.Item to get an "Email From" field from the content item that runs the form).
This is where I get stuck. A number of the sublayouts I have don't seem to have any "content" that needs pulling from a data source. The only content I can see in the case of the two forms I want to test is the "Email To" fields. So, if I were to abstract those away into their own data templates, and then added those as data sources I assume that I would then have to change my code for these to stop using Sitecore.Context.Item?
The point where I get stuck is with the data sources for the Multivariate Test Variables and the data sources for the Sublayouts. If I have two data templates containing the Email fields for each, two sublayouts that contain the forms that need testing and two multivariate variables, what goes where?
I believe you can read about it in the Analytics Configuration Reference (PDF link) under section 2.2.
You essentially create a MV test that wraps over potential data sources of a sublayout. The test then randomly assigns a DataSource, so your sublayouts need to be written to work with a DataSource.
With Sitecore 8 released Multivariate Testing is now supported out of the box as well as AB Testing.
You can run two entirely different templates to see which Layout works best for the user by Page Test in Sitecore's Optimization Tool on the Launch Pad. Creating a Page Test you can select the current version of the Item then create a new Version of the Item with the different Layout. This can also be done for Content on the Page
After that you need to decide how a winner can be chosen e.g. most goals completed by users, registrations etc then Sitecore will automatically run the test for you showing A and B to various users and ultimately choose a winner based on the Test Objective. You can choose a winner mannually or let Sitecore automatically choose after a set Duration.
Creating a Mulitvariate Test on number of different Sublayouts as well as imagery, personalisation, content etc is a little more interesting. To create a Multivariate Test is done via Workflow Actions, I've posted a blog recently how to add Maultivariate Testing to workflow.
Approving with a Test will prompt Sitecore to create a Multivariate Test for all variables (Sublayouts, Content, Personalization etc). It creates an 'Experience' for every possible combination of these variables and tests them against each other.
For a more in-depth explination and guide I have recently posted a tutorial to create a Multivariate Test in Sitecore.
There are two trainings that you (and a developer on your team) should really consider attending: OMS Certified Marketer and OMS .NET Developer.
