When you have created a machine learning model, you will retrain that model when new data is available. But when I recently added a couple of images to the training set of my own ML.net model, I was faced with the following exception:
System.InvalidOperationException: 'The asynchronous operation has not completed.'
The application did work for weeks, so what has changed? And more importantly, how to fix this situation?

But when using a repository as part of your CI/CD pipeline, you might have lots of versions that are not used by anyone anymore. So, what if you want to clean the repository automatically?
In this article, I will show how the delete images by tag, using PowerShell and the Docker Registry HTTP API V2.

The problem is, if you don't run any tests, the parser task will fail. There are no configuration settings to influence this behavior or to disable the task conditionally. I could disable the task manually, but that would affect all other branches at the same time.
So, I found it was time to create a quick work around.

There can be reasons why you might not want to use the online REST endpoint and you could prefer an offline model.
To work with machine learning in .NET, we can use ML.NET. There are several tutorials how to use this framework. But none of them combine the use of the Bitmap class with a downloaded ONNX model from the custom vision portal.
In this article I will walk through the steps to set up an application to classify bitmaps using a custom vision model with ML.NET.

There can be reasons why you might not want to use the online REST endpoint. For example, when processing images from a video feed, performance, connectivity, security, and costs might be considerations why you could prefer an offline model.
To work with machine learning in .NET, we can use ML.NET, an open source and cross-platform framework. There are several tutorials how to use this framework. But none of them combine the Bitmap class with a downloaded ONNX model from the custom vision portal.
In this article I will walk through the steps to set up an application to classify bitmaps using a custom vision model with ML.NET.

TypeInitializationException: EntryPointNotFoundException: Unable to find an entry point named 'OrtGetApiBase' in DLL 'onnxruntime'.
Searching for the error online did not yield any solutions.
After solving the problem, I wanted to share the solution for anyone else running into the same exception.
