Can't express my feelings when you get some of the awesome courses on internet for free of cost 🙏
same, thanks to all these cool guys i never had to buy a course when i wanted to learn something new.
Free Code Camp is the best!
Couldn’t agree more! We’re living in the matrix and everyone watching took the blue pill (or whichever one was the right choice lol)
Really?
@@foryoutube1975 lol that is what i thought too,
omg your courses get released a moment after i start learning a new stuff! GREAT CONTENT! THANKS FCC!
I was just clicking on random videos on YT and I somehow landed on this course and GOD THANK YOU! Learned a lot and lots of things here that I could've learned nowhere better. Thank you for this course, although there were somethings in the last part of this course that I was not able to understand but I got a glimpse of how things are and how they work, I'll definitely learn them.
Thank you guys for making such quality videos that has helped millions. I've benefited a lot from your previous tutorials and I'm excited to learn opencv as well! Thank you!!
Thanks for all your efforts, spent times, and open source-free courses. Indeed, I've started OpenCV through that course, and it's been a superb starting point for me. And there are also different kinds of courses related to Data Science and am gonna benefit from them as well. Am grateful to know a such channel and a such course..
Hi Jason, I have been going through many courses for OpenCV (Not that I didn't understand them) but I should say even though the course is fast-paced but well explained and especially Chapter BITWISE operations Awesome!..keep it going very well explained and practically show.
OMG I love this, soooo straight to the point and clear. I wish all tutorials were like yours!!!!!
One of the best courses i've taken, thank you for this !
This is a goldmine of a resource. I have 3+ years experience with image processing in MATLAB. Totally into Python now and enjoying this awesome tutorial.
Hi aniruddh can i get your contact / email please? Have some work in your domain its urgent
Which is better to start with? Python or MATLAB for ML?
@@dremr2038 From my experience, Matlab does not offer as much dynamism and flexibility, so I would definitely go with the former. I've used both but once I made the transition to Python, there was no looking back!
@@dremr2038 python is so good for ML, I don't think it has any rivals other than maybe R
Can't express how grateful I am for this amazing content. Thanks guys
I was desperately looking for an OpenCV tutorial and I saw this like a hero :)
The exact thing I've been looking for Thanks a lot
Just finished it's awesome course... It goes like begginer to advance.. Thank you ;)
Absolute lifesaving course! in the span of a few hours I was able to do my own computer vision projects! Sidenote : the cat pictures were a bit too cute and sometimes distracting haha.
Damn, never felt this confident on anything after just finishing the course. Kudos to you guys for bringing out this gem of a tutorial and channel as well. And all of it FREE OF COST🙏🙏
I've been waiting for this kind of tutorial here thank you
thanks for the amazing lesson best opencv course ever!
Yeeaah. I'm just starting my TFG about Image Processing with Python and this comes out. Love FCC!

Thank you for the interesting content. The error in the face recognizer is due to 3:04:44 It should be for (x, y, w, h) in face_rects: faces_roi = gray[y:y+h, x:x+w] instead of: for (x, y, w, h) in face_rects: faces_roi = gray[y:y+h, x:x+h]
Just gonna thank this channel and Sir you are the best teacher I have ever come across
Finally, a 2020 updated opencv tutorial on the internet
You got that right boi
2:08:26 - actually everything was OK. You don't need to pass masked image to calcHist mask parameter. You can just pass white circle instead, as you did first time. You can compare both histogram plots and make sure, they are identical. It worked because cats-in-a-circle image is identical to white circle in bitwise operations (if those cats have no zero valued pixels in the circle region)
The course has been really confusing at times. Thankfully, I did the same before following him so I agree with your findings
you are right.
It's amazing when you find the right tutorial all for free, Thanks Jason
I just comment so it reaches more people, because this helps THAT lot. Thank you for making this, and for making this free! It's greatly appreciated!
Been needing this video since last christmas! lol Thank you! -- +9999pts for linking up concepts to examples in the video. Something abt the documentation just gets my mind wandering until I've forgotten what it was I was looking for in the first place. ;D
WAS WAITING FOR THISSS!!!!!

Perfect OpenCV course to start off! 👍🏼
Great Job, by the far it is the best video of OpenCV I have seen... keep sharing more please
This is exactly what i'm looking for, thank you !
this is nuts that this is free!
this course is so incredibly useful for me , thank you so much.
You are the best, thanks a lot, it helped a lot for my internship project.
Thank you for this course.
Wow! More content in this than in my semester long Computer Vision course. Thanks!
This is one great tutorial I have come across, thanks for the effort and time put into this.
Thanks for the tutorial! A great way to start understanding open cv and computer vision. Well done!
2:41:06 Tutorial is awesome, the explanations are much better than other tutorials I have tried, only ran into one real issue so far and that was during the "Face detection with Haar Cascades". When referencing the xml file, I found out I needed to implement the full path to the file in order to get it working properly, just thought I would throw that out there in case anyone else runs into a similar problem.
Hi, Does this course go deep into utilizing artificial intelligence?
Thanks a lot !
Are you talking about how to solve the xml parsing error that happens? because yes i'm suffering from that currently. What do you mean by full path? because my xml file is saved in the same directory as my face detection file
@@chinmayganguly457 I had the same issue. Just look at your explorer tab (it's on the left in VSCode), right click on your xml and then click 'Copy Path' (or 'Copy Relative Path', it also worked for me)
Yeah, same situation, in my case was because I created a file inside "resources" to have more order, so VS Code needed me to give the exact file path to run haar_face.xml. Thanks for the tip
Hey I see your effort. You all are putting so much effort and time in these videos. I think if you make the roadmaps videos like if you want to become a android developer watch this playlist in which you can mention all the videos that are related to the android development. Yes I know that you already had created playlists but they are kinda incomplete and are not roadmaps videos. And one more suggestion make a playlist of roadmaps videos for different learning paths like you had created pytorch and tensorflow tutorials if they both are mentioned in a roadmap video of data scientist and a pdf in description as if anyonnes wants to print and want the learning steps so he/she can download the pdf. I hope you will like my suggestion. Even I follows your tutorials but i didn't know whether the tutorial is for my path or not and then after researching and learning my own I find that you had made the tutorials but I was not able to identify that the tutorial is helpful or not. So if you do this it will save so much time and everyone will know what to do next. Thanks For Reading My Suggestion :)
Nice!
u must check code with harry in that case. only if you know hindi
@@TechWithRushabh Yes know that but they have more audience than Code With Harry. So if they did this it will help more people.
@@RajvirSingh1313 Yea I know that would be cool.
@@TechWithRushabh Even I am learning c++ from him!
thank you very much for this free course! you helped lots of students.
Thank you for making this available for everyone, really appreciate the good work!
The tutorial is great. Everything is explained in a great way. The only thing that I felt could be improved is by using some constants instead of just writing them again and again like you did in draw.py. You could've specified constant like STARTING_POINT, ENDING_POINT, COLOR and many more which would've made the code much more readable and could've also reduced the tutorial length. I would be making a pull request for this soon. Thank you for this amazing tutorial :)
If you are using intellisense, it will also pop up what each parameter is! But yeah I agree, magic numbers are never good
3:27:20 if you're following along with pycharm from tensorflow.python.keras.utils.np_utils import to_categorical should be used instead of from tensorflow.keras.utils import to_categorical
2:44:26 When The Face was Detected This moment gave me the most happiness to be able to detect a face. THANK YOU FOR THIS COURSE
I wish I could like your efforts as many times as I watch your videos. God bless you guys.
讲的非常详细， I like this video.
1:30:00, I try a little tweak here by using ones() instead of zeros(), then multiple blank by 255, so I can get a white canvas. The results are interesting cause it display sort of CMYK.
Excellent quality. Impressive making. Thank you.
Omg dude you are amazing, thx for sharing your knowledge with us!
"train_gen = datagen.flow(x_train, y_train, batch_size=BATCH_SIZE)" gives a ValueError: "`x` (images tensor) and `y` (labels) should have the same length. Found: x.shape = (80, 80, 1), y.shape = (11047, 10)"
That was a nice course for starting machine learning but please look at (3:38:00) . We're larning to reach a conclusion . So why the model cannot work correctly?
Thanks for these extremely helpful videos man!
This video is really good for learning new things related to computers..🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💮..good job guys....I learned almost the concepts...and making a project now..
Thank you for your effort. I' am going to watch it later: not that easy to reserve almost 4 hours :)
3:29:55 - `x` (images tensor) and `y` (labels) should have the same length - People who are getting this error, convert the list x_train and y_train to numpy arrays x_train=np.array(x_train) y_train=np.array(y_train)

Completed this in two weeks, what an amazing course! For the computer vision part on kaggle, you might have to use your own model, i recommend convolutional layers. The model used by the tutor is out of date and you might encounter roadblocks. Good thing is, every other line of code works well with any model of choice. Really enjoyed this course and i look forward to doing advance stuff from here!
Borned to teaching code!!!....excellent methods and speech...thanks for give us a lot against none trading off fee.....keep on that way my friend!!!
Awesome video, thanks a lot! One very important question: how may I display those small explainations/suggestions of the parameters I can put into the functions? For example: I type in "cv.rectangle(" but there is no popup that shows which parameters I can put into the functions. In your case it's very nice and clearly visible! Do I need a vs code addon for opencv? Thanks in advance!
I had the same issue as well but a stackoverflow post had the solution. Apparently sometimes the path to the file with those suggestions is in chinese and they don't show in the editor. All you had to do is use "from cv2 import cv2 as cv" rather than "import cv2 as cv", this fixed the issue for me, try it once.
pylance ;)
Hi Jason, Your course is very detailed and oriented towards practical application of concepts taught. Loved it. I have a personal project which could really benefit from your skills. I am not sure if you do freelance work or are interested to have a listen... Please let me know if i can reach you somehow to discuss this further...
Tiết là anh ta quá bận để trả lời bạn:))
Omg, having awesome tutorials free of cost, much much better than what programming learners expect.
This is really helpful. Thank you so much.
Okay, here's the shortcut I found about VS Code: Ctrl + '/' -> Comments out a line Alt + Up/Down Arrow -> To move text up and down And this is personalized: Alt + D -> Duplicates the lines Please share your shortcuts as well.
Thanks, I was looking for some free course for image processing for computer vision👌👌
I never learned bitwise operation his much easily ❤️❤️
A well compiled video of opencv examples! :)
The way he said Bleaaaa(blur), I fell for his channel
I stucked an error at 3:30:00 and i surrendered to resolve. Finally, your Github resume back again together with "Fix Sklearn ImportError" which is inside simpsons.py then i follow the github to import sklearn.model_selection as skm and change x_train, x_val, y_train, y_val = caer.train_val_split(featureSet, labels, val_ratio=.2) to split_data = skm.train_test_split(featureSet, labels, test_size=.2) x_train, x_val, y_train, y_val = (np.array(item) for item in split_data) So far, I don't find error at all. Thanks a lot

Hi Jason! Great work and i've had a blast following your course! In the module "Face detection with Haar cascades" i'm having trouble with Visual studio code reading the xml file. The error says "You don't have an extension for debugging XML. Should we find a XML extension in the Marketplace?" Then i click "Find XML extension" and download a few of the options i get here, but neither seem to work out for me. Do you have any advice?
Every videos is top notch and the explanation was so good

Ho man! You did a wonderful job about this free Open CV course, easy and smooth to follow up step by step. Thanks a lot!
This video is a great help to start computer vision. Thank you so much
Hi, I am using OpenCV in Ubuntu 20 and it is kinda weird to say but it is somewhat different from what is being shown in the video. When I hover my mouse over the image, I can see the X-Y coordinates as well as the R, G, B values of those pixels. Also, there are some hidden buttons that allow me to zoom in, zoom out, and save the image. Anybody else experiencing the same?
Thank you so much! One question: Do I need to "normalise" the input image before send it into model.prediction in the Simpsons demo?
Depends what you mean by normalise. To train effectively, your input images will need to be structurally similar - this means that if one input image is 640x320, *all* the other images must be 640x320. If you expose one image to mean subtraction, it would be wise to do the same for the rest of the images. Hope this helps! Cheers :)
great job so far in 1:11 now and love the content also just realized how amazing these image manipulation softwares are amazing EDIT: Into advance section now and the true power of openCV is here awesome and awesome tutorial
Thanks alot free code camp for providing such a wonderful comprehensive tutorial on openCV
3:09:05 a 110% "pretty sure there's an error somewhere" .... 3:39:15 "...definitely not the best model that we could've asked for..." this is learning the blind way, nothing replaces reading a good book, more cartesian, more precise.
You mean that reading books are much better, please suggest a book then plz
in arabic we have a proverb, make better or keep silent, I dont judge ur ability to do so but his work is great and I found it amazing , any books for suggestion!!!
What is the extension to display those short descriptions of the functions?
Kite AI Code AutoComplete, I think
You can use "help()" and pass in the function. for example "help(print)" Also, you can use "?? print" or any function you have in mind.
thank you Freecode camp i was waiting for this kind of videos thanks
I bought a course to learn OpenCV from this website but it was money wasted. The whole thing was filled with too much theory like what is RGB? What is BGR? How do images work? I lost interest so quickly. I LOVE how you are to the point. Your pacing is also perfect. I have never watched anything with 1.0x speed before. THANK YOU for making this course! This video is priceless.
Hey, got an error when creating the image training generator on line: train_gen = datagen.flow(x_train, y_train, batch_size=BATCH_SIZE) Not sure why it gave the error below ValueError: `x` (images tensor) and `y` (labels) should have the same length. Found: x.shape = (80, 80, 1), y.shape = (11047, 10, 10)
I'm having the same error
You can just continue and it will work
How close is this to the technology to the large scale commercial organsations are using such as Facebook, Apple etc? What percentage are the commercial organisations getting when they run their image identification systems?

same here
Hey, I know this is late but thought I would post here in case anyone else gets the issue. It's because of a library update - you need to convert them from python arrays to numpy arrays. Here is the code, run it after doing caer.train_val_split x_train = np.array(x_train) y_train = np.array(y_train)
You will also need to do this to the x & y_val lists too

Good and entertaining video series. The last video gave me a good lol in the middle of the night here. I think I woke up my neighbors thinking about one of the ”classic quotes from known and unknown programmers”: ”Despite the fact that it doesn´t work - How do you like it?” No affence man.
In Face Recognition section, at 3:07:45 , in my case, model is always recognizing image with confidence of 0.0 . Could anyone please help me? Please?
How many images are you using to train your model?? If you use more images then confidence would also increase.
Same problem, but i assume the confidence is actually 100.0 and there is a problem due to data type because i always get the correct result.
I don't feel like this is a tutorial, it's more like going through documentation really fast.
