Alberto Fernndez Villn is a software engineer with more than 12 years of experience in developing innovative solutions. In the last couple of years, he has been working in various projects related to monitoring systems for industrial plants, applying both Internet of Things (IoT) and big data technologies. He has a Ph.D. in computer vision (2017), a deep learning certification (2018), and several publications in connection with computer vision and machine learning in journals such as Machine Vision and Applications, IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, Sensors, IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, IEEE Latin America Transactions, and more. As of 2013, he is a registered and active user (albertofernandez) on the Q&A OpenCV forum.

Chapter 10

  1. In the context of machine learning, there are three main approaches and techniques: supervised, unsupervised, and semi-supervised machine learning.
  2. Supervised learning problems can be further grouped into regression and classification problems. A classification problem happens when the output variable is a category, and a regression problem is when the output variable is a real value. For example, if we predict the possibility of rain in some regions and assign two labels (rain/no rain), this is a classification problem. On the other hand, if the output of our model is the probability associated with the rain, this is a regression problem.
  3. OpenCV provides the cv2.kmeans() function, implementing a k-means clustering algorithm, which finds centers of clusters and groups input samples around the clusters. k-means is one of the most important clustering algorithms available...
