Image Frames Available For Political Ad Image Analysis Pilot

We've updated Friday's dataset "Computers Watching Ads: Deep Learning Meets Campaign 2016" to include the actual image frames analyzed. Each political television advertisement was split into a sequence of frames, one per second, using "ffmpeg" and analyzed through Google's Cloud Vision API. Thanks to the Internet Archive, we've now made all of those still image frames available for download from the Archive's website. The JSON download file has been updated to include URLs to the image frame files now.
