Yandex, Russia’s biggest Internet company, has released an online game that invites players to guess where photos were taken. The images are taken from a database of photos uploaded by users to the Yandex.Maps app (similar to Google Maps). The human players compete against the specially trained neural network Alice, which is already used as a voice assistant in many Yandex products.
To teach Alice to identify cities, the developers took user photos from the Yandex.Maps database and divided them into two groups. Alice was shown the first group of images and told where each shot was taken. After viewing several thousand photos, the neural network formed an idea of each country based on a specific set of features.
