A practical guide to understanding the core machine learning and deep learning algorithms, and implementing them to create intelligent image processing systems using OpenCV 4Key FeaturesGain insights into machine learning algorithms, and implement them using OpenCV 4 and scikit-learnGet up to speed with Intel OpenVINO and its integration with OpenCV 4Implement high-performance machine learning models with helpful tips and best practicesBook DescriptionOpenCV is an opensource library for building computer vision apps. The latest release, OpenCV 4, offers a plethora of features and platform improvements that are covered comprehensively in this up-to-date second edition.You'll start by understanding the new features and setting up OpenCV 4 to build your computer vision applications. You will explore the fundamentals of machine learning and even learn to design different algorithms that can be used for image processing. Gradually, the book will take you through supervised and unsupervised machine learning. You will gain hands-on experience using scikit-learn in Python for a variety of machine learning applications. Later chapters will focus on different machine learning algorithms, such as a decision tree, support vector machines (SVM), and Bayesian learning, and how they can be used for object detection computer vision operations. You will then delve into deep learning and ensemble learning, and discover their real-world applications, such as handwritten digit classification and gesture recognition. Finally, you'll get to grips with the latest Intel OpenVINO for building an image processing system.By the end of this book, you will have developed the skills you need to use machine learning for building intelligent computer vision applications with OpenCV 4.What you will learnUnderstand the core machine learning concepts for image processingExplore the theory behind machine learning and deep learning algorithm designDiscover effective techniques to train your deep learning modelsEvaluate machine learning models to improve the performance of your modelsIntegrate algorithms such as support vector machines and Bayes classifier in your computer vision applicationsUse OpenVINO with OpenCV 4 to speed up model inferenceWho this book is forThis book is for Computer Vision professionals, machine learning developers, or anyone who wants to learn machine learning algorithms and implement them using OpenCV 4.
