Image Processing Using Pulse-Coupled Neural Networks

Migrate from pandas and scikit-Learn to PySpark to handle vast amounts of data and achieve faster data processing time. This book will show you how to make this transition by adapting your skills and leveraging the similarities in syntax, functionality, and interoperability between these tools. Distributed Machine Learning with PySpark offers a roadmap to data scientists considering transitioning from small data libraries (pandas/scikit-learn) to big data processing and machine learning with PySpark. You will learn to translate Python code from pandas/scikit-learn to PySpark to preprocess large volumes of data and build, train, test, and evaluate popular machine learning algorithms such as linear and logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines, Na鴳e Bayes, and neural networks. After completing this book, you will understand the foundational concepts of data preparation and machine learning and will have the skills necessary to apply these methods using

Gain insights into image-processing methodologies and algorithms, using machine learning and neural networks in Python. This book begins with the environment setup, understanding basic image-processing terminology, and exploring Python concepts that will be useful for implementing the algorithms discussed in the book. You will then cover all the core image processing algorithms in detail before moving onto the biggest computer vision library: OpenCV. You’ll see the OpenCV algorithms and how to use them for image processing. The next section looks at advanced machine learning and deep learning methods for image processing and classification. You’ll work with concepts such as pulse coupled neural networks, AdaBoost, XG boost, and convolutional neural networks for image-specific applications. Later you’ll explore how models are made in real time and then deployed using various DevOps tools. All the concepts in Practical Machine Learning and Image Processing are explained using r
