-
-# Insert some images

-]
-t.insert({'image': prefix + p} for p in paths)
-
-# Add a computed column for image classification
-t['classification'] = huggingface.detr_for_object_detection(
-    (t.image), model_id='facebook/detr-resnet-50'
-    )
-
-# Retrieve the rows where cats have been identified
-t.select(animal = t.image,
-         classification = t.classification.label_text[0]) \
-.where(t.classification.label_text[0]=='cat').head()
-```

-
-### Extend Pixeltable's capabilities with user-defined functions
-```python
-@pxt.udf
-def draw_boxes(img: PIL.Image.Image, boxes: list[list[float]]) -> PIL.Image.Image:
-    result = img.copy()  # Create a copy of `img`
-    d = PIL.ImageDraw.Draw(result)
-    for box in boxes:
-        d.rectangle(box, width=3)  # Draw bounding box rectangles on the copied image
-    return result
-```
-Learn more about user-defined functions: [UDFs in Pixeltable](https://pixeltable.readme.io/docs/user-defined-functions-udfs).
-
-### Automate data operations with views, e.g., split documents into chunks
-```python
-# In this example, the view is defined by iteration over the chunks of a DocumentSplitter
-chunks_table = pxt.create_view(
-    'rag_demo.chunks',
-    documents_table,
-    iterator=DocumentSplitter.create(
-        document=documents_table.document,
-        separators='token_limit', limit=300)
-)
-```
-Learn how to leverage views to build your [RAG workflow](https://pixeltable.readme.io/docs/document-indexing-and-rag).
-
-### Evaluate model performance
-```python
-# The computation of the mAP metric can become a query over the evaluation output
-frames_view.select(mean_ap(frames_view.eval_yolox_tiny), mean_ap(frames_view.eval_yolox_m)).show()
-```

-
-### Working with inference services
-```python
-chat_table = pxt.create_table('together_demo.chat', {'input': pxt.StringType()})
-
-# The chat-completions API expects JSON-formatted input:
-messages = [{'role': 'user', 'content': chat_table.input}]
-
-# This example shows how additional parameters from the Together API can be used in Pixeltable
-chat_table['output'] = chat_completions(
-    messages=messages,
-    model='mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1',
-    max_tokens=300,
-    stop=['\n'],
-    temperature=0.7,
-    top_p=0.9,
-    top_k=40,
-    repetition_penalty=1.1,
-    logprobs=1,
-    echo=True
-)
-chat_table['response'] = chat_table.output.choices[0].message.content
-
-# Start a conversation
-chat_table.insert([
-    {'input': 'How many species of felids have been classified?'},
-    {'input': 'Can you make me a coffee?'}
-])
-chat_table.select(chat_table.input, chat_table.response).head()
-```

-## ❓ FAQ
-
-### What is Pixeltable?
-
-Pixeltable unifies data storage, versioning, and indexing with orchestration and model versioning under a declarative table interface, with transformations, model inference, and custom logic represented as computed columns.
-
-### What problems does Pixeltable solve?
-
-Today's solutions for AI app development require extensive custom coding and infrastructure plumbing. Tracking lineage and versions between and across data transformations, models, and deployments is cumbersome. Pixeltable lets ML Engineers and Data Scientists focus on exploration, modeling, and app development without dealing with the customary data plumbing.
-
-### What does Pixeltable provide me with? Pixeltable provides:
-
-- Data storage and versioning
-- Combined Data and Model Lineage
-- Indexing (e.g. embedding vectors) and Data Retrieval
-- Orchestration of multimodal workloads
-- Incremental updates
-- Code is automatically production-ready
-
-### Why should you use Pixeltable?
-
-- **It gives you transparency and reproducibility**
-  - All generated data is automatically recorded and versioned
-  - You will never need to re-run a workload because you lost track of the input data
-- **It saves you money**
-  - All data changes are automatically incremental
-  - You never need to re-run pipelines from scratch because you’re adding data
-- **It integrates with any existing Python code or libraries**
-  - Bring your ever-changing code and workloads
-  - You choose the models, tools, and AI practices (e.g., your embedding model for a vector index); Pixeltable orchestrates the data
-
-### What is Pixeltable not providing?
-
-- Pixeltable is not a low-code, prescriptive AI solution. We empower you to use the best frameworks and techniques for your specific needs.
-- We do not aim to replace your existing AI toolkit, but rather enhance it by streamlining the underlying data infrastructure and orchestration.
