Ever wanted to master Image Processing techniques from scratch! This session is for you. Zero to HERO: Image Processing Techniques is a beginner-friendly two part series by Vivek Raja P S, Data Scientist @ NexStem & AWS Machine Learning HERO. In this series, we will learn the basic concepts of Image Processing and then work on building highly efficient Image Processing Algorithms in Tensorflow. Session Dates: Zero to HERO: Image Processing Techniques -Part 1: Date & Time: Dec 5, 2021, 7:00pm onwards Zero to HERO: Image Processing Techniques Part 2: Date & Time: Dec 11, 2021, 7:00pm onwards The Agenda of the series (Part 1 & Part 2): What is Image Processing and why it is important? What all the challenges we face while implementing the same? Understanding how to work in Image Data Analytics Problem Machine Learning Steps Finding your Data source Collecting & Organizing the dataset Loading your dataset in memory efficient manner Standardizing the dataset Creating a simple CNN model to understand Image Classification Analysing why simple CNN model wasn’t able to give better result Understanding different layers in CNN Optimizer and Loss Function Algorithms Creating a CNN model without Pre-processing Understand why CNN model overfitted on data Exploring ways to prevent overfitting Pre-processing Techniques – Morphological and Augmentation Understanding how Dropout regularization works Creating and training CNN model Visualizing and analyzing the results Understanding Transfer Learning Approach Why Transfer Learning is best for quick and decent results? How to fine-tune Transfer Learning model? Comparing Results Pre-requisites: A curious mind to learn new technology and concept Basic understanding of Machine Learning (but not compulsory) About the Speaker: Vivek Raja works as Data Scientist at NexStem | CortexBCI Inc. where he develops machine learning enabled brain-computer interface hardware and software platforms, and architects cloud solutions.
