    Interesting idea and execution! So basically you wanted to find hotels where the rooms have office chairs and a desk? Or just in any of the images, e.g., a lobby?

    Side note; I love how YOLO, a deep learning based model, is now being referred to as traditional object detection. Template matching gang rise up.

      In our hotel photo database, we have everything: rooms, lobbies, bathrooms, pools, exterior shots of buildings, etc.

      I trained an AI to recognize ergonomic chairs, but sometimes there were errors. For example, a chair in a hotel's SPA was always identified as an ergonomic chair. That's why we manually reviewed all 50k photos to verify them.

        50k manually? How long did it take you?

          I don't know, I assigned this task to trusted specialists from India.

            Wow, manually reviewing 50k photos is a lot! Would you be willing to share what the cost of that was?

              I created an app similar to Tinder that facilitates manual verification. Around 60 photos can be verified in one minute. The whole process took about a week and didn't cost much.
