How did famous tennis players respond to the Djokovic visa saga?

Sportsmanship in Tennis as revealed by Artificial Intelligence Software.What famous tennis players REALLY think and FEEL? As Sigmund Freud remarked: “No mortal can keep a secret. If his lips are silent, he chatterswith his fingertips; betrayal oozes out of him at every pore.” What do the famous tennis players really think about the number one tennis player Novak Djokovic? Here you are going to find out what Artificial Intelligence says about emotions that tennis players…

#009 The Singular Value Decomposition(SVD) – illustrated in Python

Highlight: In this post, we will talk about the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). We will see that is the continuation of the Linear Algebra post about eigenvectors and eigenvalues. Well, it is probably one of the most important algorithms in Linear Algebra, math, and engineering. Applications are immense, starting from Image processing, Computer vision, up to industrial applications, such as Google rank algorithm. O.K., you probably heard about SVD already. So, let’s start! Tutorial Overview:…

#004 OpenCV projects – How to extract features from the image in Python?

Highlights: In this post, we are going to show how to detect distinct features in an image. We will describe the important properties of these features (keypoints) and we will learn how we can use them to better understand the structure and the content of an image. Furthermore, we will talk about the most common algorithms that can be used for feature detection. So, let’s begin. Tutorial overview: What are keypoints? Detecting corners with Harris…

#011 How to detect eye blinking in videos using dlib and OpenCV in Python

We already learned what facial landmarks are and how to detect them. Now we are ready to expand that knowledge and put it into the practice to solve other similar problems. In this post we are going to explain how we can detect and count eye blinking in videos. To develop an eye blinking detector, we need to detect facial landmarks of the eyes, and then we need to calculate the aspect ratio between these…

#010 How to align faces with OpenCV in Python

Highlight: In this post we are going to demonstrate how to apply face alignment using OpenCV and Python. Face alignment is one important step that we need to master before we start to work on some more complicated image processing tasks in Python. So, let’s see what face alignment is and why this method is necessary if we want to achieve higher accuracy in face recognition algorithms. Tutorial Overview: What is face alignment? Face alignment…
