New Tutorial: Advanced Annotation Procedures
We are happy to present a new part of our tutorial series on Firetail techniques!
In this part you will learn how to
- segement acceleration data
- subdivide and refine predicted categories
- save your models and apply them to other individuals, tags or deployments
The tutorial has two parts. Firstly, a short lecture to introduce the underlying concepts and secondly, a live demo using Firetail 8 for an illustrated application in practice.
