Chapter 7: AI Tools for Computer Vision
Abstract: AI tools for computer vision range from foundational libraries like OpenCV , TensorFlow , and PyTorch for building models, to specialized platforms like Roboflow or Viso Suite for end-to-end management, plus cloud services (Google Vision AI) and hardware accelerators (NVIDIA CUDA) for deployment, enabling tasks like object detection, segmentation, facial recognition, and OCR across various industries. Foundational Libraries & Frameworks OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library): A massive, open-source library for real-time computer vision tasks, supporting C++, Python, Java, with algorithms for tracking, facial recognition, and more. TensorFlow (Google): Powerful framework for deep learning, offering tools to build complex vision models for image classification, object detection, and segmentation. PyTorch (Meta): Developer-friendly framework, excellent for research and...
