\section{Introduction}
% This section should contain an introduction to the problem aims and objectives (0.5 page)
Currently, there are many classification tasks that are being done manually. These tasks could be done more effectively if there was tooling that would allow the easy creation of classification models, without the knowledge of data analysis and machine learning models creation.
The aim of this project is to create a classification service that requires zero user knowledge about machine learning, image classification or data analysis.
The system should allow the user to create a reasonable accurate model that can satisfy the users' need.
The system should also allow the user to create expandable models; models where classes can be added after the model has been created. % hyperparameters, augmenting the data.
\section{Introduction} \label{sec:introduction}
% This section should contain an introduction to the problem aims and obectives (0.5 page)
This project is to design and create a new software as a service platform, where users with no experience in machine learning, data analysis could create machine learning models to process their data.
In this project the platform will be scoped to image classification, with the ability to be updated later with more model types.
As an easy-to-use platform needs to be able to handle: image uploads, processing, and verification; model creation, management, and expansion; and image classification.
This report will do a brief analysis of current image classification systems, followed by an overview of the design of the system, and implementation details. The report will finish with analysis of legal, ethical and societal issues, and evaluation of results, and objectives.
\subsection{Project Motivations}
Currently, there are many classification tasks that are being done manually.
Thousands of man-hours are used to classify images, this task can be automated.
There are a few easy-to-use image classification systems that require low to no knowledge of image classification.
This project aims to fill that role and provide an easy-to-use system that anyone without knowledge of image classification could use.

\subsection{Project Aim}
The project aims to create a platform where users can create different types of classification models without the users having any knowledge of image classification.

\section{Literature and Technical Review}
\section{Literature and Technical Review} \label{sec:lit-tech-review}
This section reviews existing technologies in the market that do image classification. It also reviews current image classification technologies, which meet the requirements for the project. This review also analyses methods that are used to distribute the learning between various physical machines, and how to spread the load so minimum reloading of the models is required when running the model.

And as the model will be trained and run multiple times decreasing the computational cost might be a better overall target for sustainability then being able to offer higher accuracies.
Even though scaling using the EfficientNet compound method might not yield the best results using some EfficientNets what were optimized by the team to would be optimal, for example, EfficientNet-B1 is both small and efficient while still obtaining $79.1\%$ top-1 accuracy in ImageNet, and realistically the datasets that this system will process will be smaller and more scope specific than ImageNet.

% There are also unsupervised learning methods that do not have a fixed number of classes. While this method would work as an expandable model method, it would not work for the purpose of this project. This project requires that the model has a specific set of labels which does not work with unsupervised learning which has unlabelled data. Some technics that are used for unsupervised learning might be useful in the process of creating expandable models.
\subsection{Conclusion}
The technical review of current systems reveal that there are current systems that exist that can perform image classification tasks, but they are not friendly in ways to easy expand currently existing models.
The current methods that exist for image classification seem to have reached a classification accuracy and efficiency that make a project like this feasible.
