Improving Vision Model Performance Using Roboflow & Tenyks
SUMMARY
A collaboration between Roboflow and Tenyks showing that model performance gains often come from fixing data, not tuning architecture. Using a traffic sign detection model as the test scenario, the workflow covers training a baseline, auditing the Roboflow dataset with Tenyks to surface label errors and class imbalances, correcting

Using Stable Diffusion and SAM to Modify Image Contents Zero Shot
SUMMARY
Combining Grounding DINO for zero-shot object detection, SAM for pixel-precise segmentation, and Stable Diffusion for inpainting produces a fully text-driven image editor that requires no manual masking or selection tools. The pipeline takes a text description of the object to modify, uses Grounding DINO to locate

Detect and Segment Oil Spills Using Computer Vision
SUMMARY
Drone footage of an oil spill carries enough information to determine spill volume, thickness, and spatial extent, but only if the imagery is analyzed with a model trained to distinguish those properties.

Improve Accuracy: Polygon Annotations for Object Detection
SUMMARY
Polygon annotations consistently outperform bounding boxes for object detection when objects have irregular shapes, because polygons eliminate background noise that bounding boxes include. An experiment comparing both annotation types, combined with augmentations (rotation, saturation, cutout, bounding box shear) and pretrained weight initialization, showed meaningful mAP gains at each step.
