You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
I publish a brand new Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV tutorial every Monday at 10AM EST. Here you'll find my most recent tutorials and guides.
In this tutorial, you will learn about face recognition, including: How face recognition works How face recognition is different from face detection A history of face recognition algorithms State-of-the-art algorithms used for face recognition today Next week we will start…

In this tutorial, you will learn about smoothing and blurring with OpenCV. We will cover the following blurring operations Simple blurring (cv2.blur) Weighted Gaussian blurring (cv2.GaussianBlur) Median filtering (cv2.medianBlur) Bilateral blurring (cv2.bilateralFilter) By the end of this tutorial, you’ll be…
