Description
This course covers the fundamentals of Python programming, as well as an introduction to using image-processing techniques to identify a human face in live video recordings. It will be taught by myself through my desktop, and I will be coding from scratch, and step by step to insure that no ambiguity is present.
This course will start out with a brief overview of Python basics such as variables, for and while loops, boolean statements, functions and more. After becoming familiar with Python, we will dive into some image-processing concepts and start on our Python script to detect human faces!
This course is intended for anyone who wants to quickly pick up Python and start working on an interesting, applicable project instead of drudging along a twenty-hour tutorial. My videos are short, hands-on, interactive and engaging, so you'll come out happy and enthusiastic with a large amount of gained knowledge.
Who this course is for:
- Anyone interested in high-level programming
- Anyone interested in Image Processing and Artificial Intelligence
- Anyone interested in the Python programming language
Instructor
Hello,
I am a Software Engineer working in the Bay Area. I enjoy programming in Python, C++, and Java, and love programming Android applications. My goal is to not only educate myself in programming languages and the concepts behind them, but to educate others as well.
