Matthew Rever

Matthew Rever received his PhD. in electrical engineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. His career revolves around image processing, computer vision, and machine learning for scientific research applications. He started programming in C++, a language he still uses today, over 20 years ago, and has also used Matlab and most heavily Python in the past few years, using OpenCV, SciPy, scikit-learn, TensorFlow, and PyTorch. He believes it is important to stay up to date on the latest tools to be as productive as possible. Dr. Rever is the author of Packt's Computer Vision Projects with Python 3 and Advanced Computer Vision Projects.

Google Brain im2txt captioning model

Google Brain im2txt was used by Google in a paper 2015 MSCOCO Image Captioning Challenge, and will form the foundation of the image captioning code that we will implement in our project.

The Google's GitHub TensorFlow page can be found at https://github.com/tensorflow/models/tree/master/research/im2txt.

In the research directory, we will find the im2txt file, which was used by Google in the paper, 2015 MSCOCO Image Captioning Challenge, which is available for free at https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.06647. It covers RNNs, LSTM, and fundamental algorithms in detail.

We can check how CNNs are used for image classification and also learn how to use the LSTM RNNs for actually generating sequential caption outputs.

We can download the code from the GitHub link; however, it has not been set up to run easily as it does not include a pre-trained model...
