Normal Bayes Classifier for Image Segmentation Using OpenCV
The Naive Bayes algorithm is a simple but powerful technique for supervised machine learning. Its Gaussian variant is implemented in the OpenCV library.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to apply OpenCV’s normal Bayes algorithm, first on a custom two-dimensional dataset and subsequently for segmenting an image.
After completing this tutorial, you will know:
- Several of the most important points in applying the Bayes theorem to machine learning.
- How to use the normal Bayes algorithm on a custom dataset in OpenCV.
- How to use the normal Bayes algorithm to segment an image in OpenCV.
Kick-start your project with my book Machine Learning in OpenCV. It provides self-study tutorials with working code.
Let’s get started.
