Installation To work with OpenCV from python, you need to install it first: pip install opencv-python Reading Images from file After we import cv2 we can directly work with images like so: import cv2 img = cv2.imread(“doc_brown.png”) For showing the image, it is recommended to use matplotlib import matplotlib.pyplot as plt img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)…
A cool new feature made its way into Python 3.7: Data classes. When You’ve already read my article about Lombok the concept isn’t so new at all: With the new decorator @dataclass You can save a huge amount of time because the methods __init__() __repr__() __eq__() are created for you! from dataclasses import dataclass @dataclass…
Since Python 3.6 there is neat way to put variables into string, called f-strings: name = “joern” age = “37” print(f”My name is {name} and I’m {age}”)
After trying a couple of times to get into a Management 3.0 training I finally had the chance to participate in a two day course in Nuremberg.
Too confused of the confusion matrix? Let me bring some clarity into this topic! Let’s take the example from Precision and Recall: y_true = [“dog”, “dog”, “non-dog”, “non-dog”, “dog”, “dog”] y_pred = [“dog”, “non-dog”, “dog”, “non-dog”, “dog”, “non-dog”] When we look at the prediction we can count the correct and incorrect classifications: dog correctly classified…
With numpy you can easily create test data with random_integers and randint. numpy.random.randint(low, high=None, size=None, dtype=’l’) numpy.random.random_integers(low, high=None, size=None) random_integers includes the high boundary while randint does not. >>> import numpy as np >>> np.random.random_integers(5) 4 >>> np.random.random_integers(5, size=(5)) array([5, 3, 4, 1, 4]) >>>np.random.random_integers(5, size=(5, 4)) array([[2, 3, 3, 5], [1, 3, 1, 3],…
In the realms of Data Science you’ll encounter sooner or the later the terms “Precision” and “Recall”. But what do they mean? Clarification Living together with little kids You very often run into classification issues: My daughter really likes dogs, so seeing a dog is something positive. When she sees a normal dog e.g. a…
One part of my bucket list for 2018 is finishing the Udacity Course UD120: Intro to Machine Learning. The host of this course are Sebastian Thrun, ex-google-X and founder of Udacity and Katie Malone, creator of the Linear digressions podcast. The course consists of 17 lessons. Every lesson has a couple of hours of video…
Lesson 2 of the Udacity Course UD120 – Intro to Machine Learning deals with Naive Bayes classification.
The term Support Vector Machines or SVM is a bit misleading. It is just a name for a very clever algorithm invented by two Russians. in the 1960s. SVMs are used for classification and regression. SVM do that by finding a hyperplane between two classes of data which separates both classes best.
