1. Making PHP see By Thijs Feryn using the Google Cloud Vision API
2. Inspired by a presentation by Peter Gasston @stopsatgreen
3. OK Computer
4. The commoditization of artificial intelligence
5. Artificial intelligence is getting very good, very quickly
6. Algorithms have been available for a while
7. But now the computational resources are readily available
8. The Cloud
9. Speech & vision
10. Automate
13. Tagging Cataloging OCR …
14. https://cloud.google.com/vision/
15. Since this is a PHP meetup …
16. I wrote a wrapper in PHP
17. Hi, I’m Thijs
18. I’m @ThijsFeryn on Twitter
19. I’m an Evangelist At
20. I’m a at board member
21. https://packagist.org/ packages/thijsferyn/ google-cloud-vision-api
22. composer require thijsferyn/google- cloud-vision-api
24. I use a lot of generators
25. And some (return) type hinting
26. Guzzle
27. ✓ Label detection ✓ Text detection ✓ Face detection ✓ Landmark detection ✓ Logo detection ✓ Image properties ✓ Safe search detection Capabilities
28. Just throw images at it
29. Base64 encoded payload
30. Used this picture as an example
31. { "responses": [ { "labelAnnotations": [ { "mid": "/m/01g317", "description": "person", "score": 0.94566113 }, { "mid": "/m/09cx8", "description": "finger", "score": 0.90582412 }, { "mid": "/m/0k65p", "description": "hand", "score": 0.80619782 }, { "mid": "/m/0dzf4", "description": "arm", "score": 0.78079385 }, { "mid": "/m/01dv4h", "description": "portrait", "score": 0.71484989 }, { "mid": "/m/012t_z", "description": "businessperson", "score": 0.55623162 }, { "mid": "/m/01bmhj", "description": "thumb", "score": 0.53253812 } ] } ] }
32. <?php require dirname(__DIR__).’/vendor/autoload.php'; $api = new GoogleCloudVision\Api(getenv(‘apiKey')); $api->addImageByUrl(‘https://pbs.twimg.com/ profile_images/638779332354265088/Nsf1xLhH.jpg'); $api->addFeature($api::FEATURE_LABEL_DETECTION,10); $result = $api->request(); foreach($result as $key=>$value) { var_dump($key,$value); }
33. $api->addImageByUrl(“http://bla.com/test.jpg”); $api->addImageByFilename(“test.jpg”); $api->addRawImage(“base64blablabla”); Register images
34. Parellel requests
35. Batch processing
36. $result = $api->request(10); Batch processing
37. Demo time
