Caps-Train

A small executable to train an image classifier for Caps-Server.

Classifier training

The main server is running on Linux, which doesn't provide the CreateML framework required for classifier training.

Running this executable will:

• Fetch the current image catalog by checking missing and changed images
• Train a classifier on the image set
• Increment the classifier version and upload the new model
• Update the list of caps which can be recognized using the classifier
• Create missing thumbnails for each cap for the cap grid

A configuration file is required to run the training, with a valid access token for the server:

{
    "folder": "../Public",
    "iterations": 20,
    "server": "https://mydomain.com/caps",
    "authentication": "mysecretkey",
}

The configuration file config.json must be located in the Config folder.

To start the training (on macOS), run from inside the package folder:

swift run -c release
