Key benefits

  • Implement solutions to 50 real-world computer vision applications using PyTorch
  • Understand the theory and working mechanisms of neural network architectures and their implementation
  • Discover best practices using a custom library created especially for this book

Description

Deep learning is the driving force behind many recent advances in various computer vision (CV) applications. This book takes a hands-on approach to help you to solve over 50 CV problems using PyTorch1.x on real-world datasets. You’ll start by building a neural network (NN) from scratch using NumPy and PyTorch and discover best practices for tweaking its hyperparameters. You’ll then perform image classification using convolutional neural networks and transfer learning and understand how they work. As you progress, you’ll implement multiple use cases of 2D and 3D multi-object detection, segmentation, human-pose-estimation by learning about the R-CNN family, SSD, YOLO, U-Net architectures, and the Detectron2 platform. The book will also guide you in performing facial expression swapping, generating new faces, and manipulating facial expressions as you explore autoencoders and modern generative adversarial networks. You’ll learn how to combine CV with NLP techniques, such as LSTM and transformer, and RL techniques, such as Deep Q-learning, to implement OCR, image captioning, object detection, and a self-driving car agent. Finally, you'll move your NN model to production on the AWS Cloud. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to leverage modern NN architectures to solve over 50 real-world CV problems confidently.

Who is this book for?

This book is for beginners to PyTorch and intermediate-level machine learning practitioners who are looking to get well-versed with computer vision techniques using deep learning and PyTorch. If you are just getting started with neural networks, you’ll find the use cases accompanied by notebooks in GitHub present in this book useful. Basic knowledge of the Python programming language and machine learning is all you need to get started with this book.

What you will learn

  • Train a NN from scratch with NumPy and PyTorch
  • Implement 2D and 3D multi-object detection and segmentation
  • Generate digits and DeepFakes with autoencoders and advanced GANs
  • Manipulate images using CycleGAN, Pix2PixGAN, StyleGAN2, and SRGAN
  • Combine CV with NLP to perform OCR, image captioning, and object detection
  • Combine CV with reinforcement learning to build agents that play pong and self-drive a car
  • Deploy a deep learning model on the AWS server using FastAPI and Docker
  • Implement over 35 NN architectures and common OpenCV utilities

Great book! You get a lot of tutorials on the internet but nothing beats a structured learning path .

The authors have done a great job in introducing CV and DL to tackle problems head-first. All the mechanics and techniques relevant to the current CV problems are available in the book. The book has easy to understand theory and implementable code along with each sub-section.I had to solve CV problem related to satellite imagery during my final semester internship (B.Tech). The documentation on the same was scarce and I ended up buying the kindle ebook. The only difficult part for me to understand was that which section in book was relevant to my problem. After figuring that out, the rest was relatively easy. Although the coding examples in the book were entirely different from my problem, the tools and techniques are the same for the most part.For someone finds a CV-DL problem on his/her hands, I highly recommend this book. I was able to solve my problem statement satisfactorily and graduated with great grades in the final internship semester. Most importantly, I learned a lot. The advanced tools and techniques that are available today will blow your mind.

If you are someone who wants to quickly get started to apply deep learning to computer vision , and are new to DL, this book will get you hands on with required theory and then coding for the same, in relatively short time.It covers range of topics from classification , object detection. Segmentation, GANs, etc.Beautifully illustrated, theories are explained with examples, you get to train your own code on datasets, hoe to improve model performance etc.Author has done a very good job, my sincere thanks to them, I got to learn a lot regarding Using Deep learning in Computer vision....Do buy this book, you won't regret it...The amount of knowledge it imparts is priceless....

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.
