Course Overview
TOPComputer Vision solutions are becoming increasingly common, making their way into fields such as health, automobile, social media, and robotics. Hands-On Computer Vision with Tensorflow is a hands-on course that thoroughly explores TensorFlow, the brand-new version of Google's open source framework for machine learning. You will understand how to benefit from using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for visual tasks.

TOPWhat You'll Learn
TOPThis “skills-centric” course is about 50% hands-on lab and 50% lecture, with extensive practical exercises designed to reinforce fundamental skills, concepts and best practices taught throughout the course. Working in a hands-on learning environment, led by our Computer Vision expert instructor, students will learn about and explore how to
- Build, train, and serve your own deep neural networks with TensorFlow and Keras
- Apply modern solutions to a wide range of applications such as object detection and video analysis
- Run your models on mobile devices and web pages and improve their performance.
- Create your own neural networks from scratch
- Classify images with modern architectures including Inception and ResNet
- Detect and segment objects in images with YOLO, Mask R-CNN, and U-Net
- Tackle problems faced when developing self-driving cars and facial emotion recognition systems
- Boost your application’s performance with transfer learning, GANs, and domain adaptation
- Use recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for video analysis
- Optimize and deploy your networks on mobile devices and in the browser
