Deep Learning for Computer Vision

By: Rajalingappaa Shanmugamani

Overview of this book

Deep learning has shown its power in several application areas of Artificial Intelligence, especially in Computer Vision. Computer Vision is the science of understanding and manipulating images, and finds enormous applications in the areas of robotics, automation, and so on. This book will also show you, with practical examples, how to develop Computer Vision applications by leveraging the power of deep learning. In this book, you will learn different techniques related to object classification, object detection, image segmentation, captioning, image generation, face analysis, and more. You will also explore their applications using popular Python libraries such as TensorFlow and Keras. This book will help you master state-of-the-art, deep learning algorithms and their implementation.

Chapter 2. Image Classification

Image classification is the task of classifying a whole image as a single label. For example, an image classification task could label an image as a dog or a cat, given an image is either a dog or a cat. In this chapter, we will see how to use TensorFlow to build such an image classification model and also learn the techniques to improve the accuracy.

We will cover the following topics in this chapter:

  • Training the MNIST model in TensorFlow
  • Training the MNIST model in Keras
  • Other popular image testing datasets
  • The bigger deep learning models
  • Training a model for cats versus dogs
  • Developing real-world applications
