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 how to use OpenCV and the cv2.threshold function to apply basic thresholding and Otsu thresholding. A dataset for this topic enables us to understand the effect of different thresholding techniques on different types of…
