poptech: Visual Dictionary: Teaching computers to recognize objects. We present a visualization of all the nouns in the English language arranged by semantic meaning. Each of the tiles in the mosaic is an arithmetic average of images relating to one of 53,464 nouns. The images for each word were obtained using Google’s Image Search and other engines. A total of 7,527,697 images were used, each tile being the average of 140 images. The average reveals the dominant visual characteristics of each word. For some, the average turns out to be a recognizable image; for others the average is a colored blob […]. When you visualize the images for each word, you can click on top of each image and select if they are correct examples of the associated word (a green frame will appear around the image) or if they are incorrect (a red cross will appear). If you are unsure, just click until the frame around the image is black. Each time you click on top of an image, the selection goes from (correct, incorrect, I do not know) and starts again. You can submit your selection even if there are many images for which you are not sure what the right decision is. Your selections will be combined with selections by other users in order to get a more confident labeling. Once you are satisfied with your selection press the submit button. We will use your selections to train a computer vision algorithm to recognize images and to re-rank the images for each word. Therefore, as more annotations are provided the results will improve.

Everyone’s a model but only this who starve themselves, to try to be perfect and skinny are labeled models..I’m okay with not being labeled as a model.
It’s great when people say the little things that make your whole day.
You may only see something one way but everyone else can all see it other ways..it’s just the angle your looking at it from.
If you spend your life trying to color inside the lines you will eventually forget what the picture looks like.
Don’t be ashamed of who you are on the outside smile and your beautiful .
Look with your heart and not your eyes.
