  • Overcome the challenges faced while automating different aspects of driving using modern Python libraries and architectures

Description

Thanks to a number of recent breakthroughs, self-driving car technology is now an emerging subject in the field of artificial intelligence and has shifted data scientists' focus to building autonomous cars that will transform the automotive industry. This book is a comprehensive guide to use deep learning and computer vision techniques to develop autonomous cars. Starting with the basics of self-driving cars (SDCs), this book will take you through the deep neural network techniques required to get up and running with building your autonomous vehicle. Once you are comfortable with the basics, you'll delve into advanced computer vision techniques and learn how to use deep learning methods to perform a variety of computer vision tasks such as finding lane lines, improving image classification, and so on. You will explore the basic structure and working of a semantic segmentation model and get to grips with detecting cars using semantic segmentation. The book also covers advanced applications such as behavior-cloning and vehicle detection using OpenCV, transfer learning, and deep learning methodologies to train SDCs to mimic human driving. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to implement a variety of neural networks to develop your own autonomous vehicle using modern Python libraries.

Who is this book for?

If you are a deep learning engineer, AI researcher, or anyone looking to implement deep learning and computer vision techniques to build self-driving blueprint solutions, this book is for you. Anyone who wants to learn how various automotive-related algorithms are built, will also find this book useful. Python programming experience, along with a basic understanding of deep learning, is necessary to get the most of this book.

What you will learn

  • Implement deep neural network from scratch using the Keras library
  • Understand the importance of deep learning in self-driving cars
  • Get to grips with feature extraction techniques in image processing using the OpenCV library
  • Design a software pipeline that detects lane lines in videos

Being an avid learner of self-driving cars, I read many research papers to learn the basic concept of Autonomous cars. Those papers are a mostly advanced concept that made me realize to look into a book that can break down the advanced concept. Finally, I found this book. The authors explained every section very well. The good thing about the book is it has practical implementation with many self-driving car projects. Besides, Learners can grab the idea of different neural networks.Summary: I highly recommend this book for the readers who wants to learn Self Driving Cars from basic to advanced level.

This book keeps you engrossed with charts, graphs and pictures, not to mention, plenty of code to get stated with. Without delving too much into the mathematical details, this book manages to give you the fundamental principal and the breath of technical know-how required to embark into the field of self-driving-car.Pros: 1. Very well structured. 2. Plenty of code, charts, graphs to keep the reader interested. 3. General introduction without getting into the nitty gritty helps the reader to get the overall picture without being lost into the specifics.Cons: 1. I would agree with other reviewers about their critic of the book not having a end-to-end project connecting the sections.While this is an introductory book, a section dedicated to discussing some of the latest research with deep learning in self-driving-cars could have ushered a more intrigued reader. Kudos to the authors for taking the time to write the book.

It is a very well written book that introduces beginners like myself to the various technologies used in autonomous vehicles. I got an understanding of the make up of what goes into designing a self driving car & how standards are still evolving due to complexities, differences in hardware, and computational aspects. I particularly enjoyed reading Section 2 about "Computer Vision Techniques" and Section 3 about "Behavioral Cloning".#deeplearning #ai #machinelearning #artificialintelligence #computervision #selfdrivingcars #autonomousvehicles #autonomous

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How is Early Access delivered? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is currently only available as a PDF or through our online reader. As we make changes or add new chapters, the files in your Packt account will be updated so you can download them again or view them online immediately.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
