Led a team of Machine Learning / Computer Vision scientists in developing a distributed video tagging and metadata extraction system, with a focus on E-Sports and Informational video domains. We demonstrated a significant increase in user engagement on video players enhanced with meta-data extracted by our system.Led end to end development of a deep learning based video classification framework, including mechanisms for continuous data collection, annotation, training/testing , system deployment, feedback and refinement.•Led development of a deep learning based text recognition system geared towards video game fonts. This included generation of large scale artificial datasets for training.
