Machine Learning with Open CV and Python

OpenCV is a library of programming functions mainly aimed at real-time computer vision. This course will show you how machine learning is great choice to solve real-word computer vision problems and how you can use the OpenCV modules to implement the popular machine learning concepts.

The video will teach you how to work with the various OpenCV modules for statistical modelling and machine learning. You will start by preparing your data for analysis, learn about supervised and unsupervised learning, and see how to implement them with the help of real-world examples. The course will also show you how you can implement efficient models using the popular machine learning techniques such as classification, regression, decision trees, K-nearest neighbors, boosting, and neural networks with the aid of C++ and OpenCV.
