Web-Based AI Image Recognition

I’m building a browser-accessible tool that can take an image uploaded by the user, run it through an AI model, and immediately return classification or detection results on-screen. All core logic must live server-side, exposed through a clean REST or GraphQL endpoint, so the front-end remains lightweight and responsive across modern web browsers.

Key expectations
• Model accuracy matters: please start with a proven open-source architecture (e.g., YOLOv8, ResNet, EfficientDet) fine-tuned on a small sample set I’ll provide, then document how to retrain it when new data arrives.
• One-click deploy: include a Dockerfile and concise README so I can spin everything up on a fresh VPS.
• Results returned as JSON plus visual overlays (bounding boxes or masks) rendered on a simple HTML/React page for verification.
• Security: images must be discarded after processing; no long-term storage.
• Clean code and inline comments so I can extend the project later—potentially adding natural-language features or predictive analytics down the line.

Deliverables
1. Source code for back-end API and front-end demo page
2. Pre-trained model weights and data preprocessing scripts
3. Deployment guide (Docker + environment variables)
4. Short video or markdown walk-through proving the system runs on a standard web server

I’ll test by uploading a batch of images: if 90 %+ are labeled correctly and the overlay aligns within 5 % pixel tolerance, I’ll sign off. Let me know the frameworks you prefer (Python/FastAPI, Node/Express, etc.) and the approximate timeline you need.
