You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
In this tutorial you will learn how to detect low contrast images using OpenCV and scikit-image. Whenever I teach the fundamentals of computer vision and image processing to students eager to learn, one of the first things I teach is:…
