Photos on Google+ receive the machine learning treatment to help save on bandwidth usage
Machine learning is such a buzzword, or words, these days. Perhaps one of the biggest advocates of this technology, the almighty Google has been applying it to many of its services over the past few months. Now photographs on Google+ are getting some love with the addition of RAISR, which allows for low-resolution images to receive massive bumps in quality while saving on bandwidth.
This initiative comes from the desire to help users who have data caps, spotty Internet connection, or both to view high-quality photos without sucking all their data or taking forever to load. RAISR, which stands for Rapid and Accurate Image Super-Resolution, utilizes machine learning to improve low-res pictures. When used with the photographic content on Google+, RAISR can use up to 75% less bandwidth than the full-resolution version.
