You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
Image ProcessingImage processing is the cornerstone in which all of Computer Vision is built. Follow my image processing guides to learn the fundamentals of Computer Vision using the OpenCV library.
In this tutorial, we’ll learn about a step-by-step implementation and utilization of OpenCV’s Contour Approximation. When I first chanced upon the concept of Contour Approximation, the first question that hit me was: Why? Throughout my journey in Machine Learning and…

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…
