Cooling Vape Juice Update¶
Since our last meeting we have validated additional predictions from our VLM pipeline for detecting cooling e-cigarette juices.
We have now verified 500 predictions with only 7 of those being incorrect, this results in a 98.6% accuracy.
Up to this point all of these products have been from a single website, vape.com.
In order to have a more robust test of the pipeline we are expanding to other websites to see how that impacts our results.
We are bringing in additional samples from Perfect Vape, Vaping.com, Vapesourcing, and CSVape.
This additional data will not only increase our sample size but introduce some variance from how these websites are formatted and what information they provide.
Expanding Cooling Flavor Detection¶
Upon further review of websites and data, I do believe there is an opportunity to apply this method to disposable e-cigarettes.
The only issue I see is that our object detection network is not going to be able to distinguish between disposable and re-usable e-cigarettes.
Thus, we will need to scrape sites only for disposables that we know will come pre-loaded with a e-cigarette juice flavor.
In our database we have already tagged products with this category and should be able to use that data.
This would expand the detection from e-cigarette juices to disposable e-cigarettes to see how the performance compares.
