Last Updated on July 5, 2019 Computer vision is perhaps one area that has been most impacted by developments in deep learning. It can be difficult to both develop and to demonstrate competence with deep learning for problems in the field of computer vision. It is not clear how to get started, what the most important techniques are, and the types of problems and projects that can best highlight the value that deep learning can bring to the field. On […]

Last Updated on July 5, 2019 The field of computer vision is shifting from statistical methods to deep learning neural network methods. There are still many challenging problems to solve in computer vision. Nevertheless, deep learning methods are achieving state-of-the-art results on some specific problems. It is not just the performance of deep learning models on benchmark problems that is most interesting; it is the fact that a single model can learn meaning from images and perform vision tasks, obviating […]

Last Updated on June 12, 2020 Computer vision is a subfield of artificial intelligence concerned with understanding the content of digital images, such as photographs and videos. Deep learning has made impressive inroads on challenging computer vision tasks and makes the promise of further advances. Before diving into the application of deep learning techniques to computer vision, it may be helpful to develop a foundation in computer vision more broadly. This may include the foundational and classical techniques, theory, and […]

Last Updated on July 5, 2019 Andrew Ng is famous for his Stanford machine learning course provided on Coursera. In 2017, he released a five-part course on deep learning also on Coursera titled “Deep Learning Specialization” that included one module on deep learning for computer vision titled “Convolutional Neural Networks.” This course provides an excellent introduction to deep learning methods for computer vision applications for those practitioners that are already familiar with the basics of deep learning. It does not […]

Last Updated on July 5, 2019 Computer Vision, often abbreviated as CV, is defined as a field of study that seeks to develop techniques to help computers “see” and understand the content of digital images such as photographs and videos. The problem of computer vision appears simple because it is trivially solved by people, even very young children. Nevertheless, it largely remains an unsolved problem based both on the limited understanding of biological vision and because of the complexity of […]

Last Updated on July 5, 2019 The Stanford course on deep learning for computer vision is perhaps the most widely known course on the topic. This is not surprising given that the course has been running for four years, is presented by top academics and researchers in the field, and the course lectures and notes are made freely available. This is an incredible resource for students and deep learning practitioners alike. In this post, you will discover a gentle introduction […]
