FamilyPet Network Relaunches Coupaw.com Daily Deal Site for Pet Owners

Fantastic Neck, NY (PRWEB) May 09, 2013

The FamilyPet Network, which provides pet owners access to top providers of products and services for their pets, announced today the relaunch of Coupaw.com, its highly successful flash sales and daily deals e-commerce platform. Launched in August 2011, Coupaw.com offers hundreds of thousands of members across the country access to exceptional deals on products and services for their pets, while enabling business owners to connect with pet owners and develop long-term relationships with them. The relaunch of Coupaw.com is timed to coordinate with National Pet Week, which this year takes place May 5-11th.

National Pet Week recognizes the vital role our pets play in our lives. Its designed to make awareness of the need to keep pets safe, healthy, well-nourished, active and stimulated. Coupaw.com users can take advantage of deals on supplies, home goods, treats, clothes, pet sitting services and more at local or online stores. Users benefit from added savings through special promotions during the month of May that let them celebrate their pets by choosing any number of fantastic gifts for them, said Jared Katz, Vice President of Business Development for FamilyPet.

Enhancements to the newly launched site include: a new streamlined design interface, simple-to-use shopping cart function and improved performance and quicker processing to speed checkout. In addition, everyday three to five new deals will be offered, viewable by category. These include: All Dog, All Cat, Toys, Chews/Treats, Home Goods, Accessories, Health and Clearance Items. This makes it simple for users to search for deals based on the breed of their pets as well as by product category. Users can also update their profiles as their situation changes. When a kitten or cat is added to a previously dog only household, for instance, the customer can update his/her profile and start receiving deal announcements for cats as well as dogs.

In addition, users will receive a referral code which they can post on social media sites and receive a $ 10 credit to their account when one of their friends uses the code to buys an item. To further recognize National Pet Week, customers will receive a $ 5.00 coupon applicable to their first buy on the new site throughout the entire month of May.

As the company that sets the pace of progress in the industry, weve got many fantastic gift thoughts that let pet owners express their devotion and loyalty to their pets. Our goal is to serve pet owners across the country by providing convenient access to the very best pet businesses and products across North America, Katz added.

Best-of-breed gift thoughts for dog owners include: Frank Bruynbroeks breath taking photo book, Compawssion: Portraits of Rescued Dogs, Dog Is Excellent Apparel, Thundershirt, Enchanted Home Designer Beds, DogSnorz, One Bella Casa Designer Throw Pillows, Doggles Sunglasses, Hyper-pet Ball Launcher and a Wag.com voucher. For cats, the Litter Genie Cat Litter Clean Up System, Custom Pet Bobble heads and Tipsy Nip Organic Tickle Pickle are the cats meow.

Ersatz Brings Deep Neural Networks to the Masses

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) May 15, 2013

Ersatz, a PaaS from Blackcloud BSGa San Francisco based startupis the worlds first PaaS to make "deep learning" technology widely available. It arrives at a time when major technology companies like Google, Microsoft, IBM, Apple, and Baidu are all investing heavily in "deep neural networks", a new and rapidly developing area of artificial intelligence research. While some of these companies have already incorporated the technology into their own products, it remains hard for companies without major R&D dollars to take advantage of the power of deep learning algorithms.

Ersatz allows its users to make ensembles of deep neural networks that learn from data in ways modelled after how the brain works. Crudely modeled, points out the companys CEO, Dave Sullivan, 27. Its modelled after our brain in the same way that airplanes are modelled after birds. Theyre really different, but theyre trying to accomplish the same thing. Were building a sort of general intelligence, not trying to reproduce the human mind in all its glory. We just need the wings, not the feathers. The ensembles that users can make with Ersatz are simply groups of neural networks that learn to uncover different aspects of the same data. It's like having a classroom of students learn something, then asking them to take a test together. The power of their minds combined produces a better result than if they had each tried individually. The same goes with ensembles of neural networks.

Users interact with Ersatz through a web interface and an API. The web interface provides an simple point and click way of making and testing your own neural networks. The API is used for running the neural networks to make predictions in your applications. Ersatz also automates the complex process of parameter selection, so users just point it at their data, tell it what they want it to predict, and press go. Of course, power users can exert more granular control over configuration options if they want.

Non-deep neural networks are nothing new. In fact, says Sullivan. Neural networks have already been through two hype cycles--when they were invented back in the 50s, and again in the 80s when researchers learned back propagation. During these two periods, computers turned out to be too slow to properly implement the techniques, so the artificial intelligence community went on to other methods that proved more practical given the computing power available at the time.

Quick forward to today, and a few things have happened to change the AI landscape. First, computers of today are orders of magnitude quicker than they used to be. Also, in 2006, there was a major breakthrough in neural network research that re-ignited interest in the field--this was the discovery of deep learning. Since then, researchers have developed a number of powerful new techniques, many of which fall under the umbrella term of deep learning. Finally, the data we generate in our lives has continued to multiply in volume--many have called this phenomenon huge data. The problem initially was simply how to even store and access such large quantities of data. The problem now is to figure out what to really do with all that data. Deep learning offers a possible solution.

Ersatz is the perfect tool for those interested in making more accurate predictions on highly complex time-series datasets. There is no shortage of industries where applications might be found: banking, healthcare, manufacturing, academic research, robotics, and many others. This product is essential for just about any company where the accuracy of predictions makes a huge difference to the bottom line.

As far as competitive landscape, Google is perhaps the most vital player in this developing market. They already use deep learning techniques for voice recognition in their Google mobile app. They have also made several key hires in the past several months, perhaps most notably Geoffrey Hinton and Ray Kurzweil, both titans in the field. But, Google does not currently have a product that offers other businesses the ability to use this technology in their own products.

Ersatz is currently in private beta and adding users as capacity allows. Interested parties can request an invite through the Ersatz website (http://www.ersatz1.com/).
