In this course, you’ll be learning about Computer Vision as a field of study and research. First we’ll be exploring several Computer Vision tasks and suggested approaches, from the classic Computer Vision perspective. Then we’ll introduce Deep Learning methods and apply them to some of the same problems. We will analyze the results and discuss advantages and drawbacks of both types of methods. We'll use tutorials to let you explore hands-on some of the modern machine learning tools and software libraries. Examples of Computer Vision tasks where Deep Learning can be applied include: image classification, image classification with localization, object detection, object segmentation, facial recognition, and activity or pose estimation.

In this module we will first review the challenges for object recognition in Classic Computer Vision. Then we will go through the steps of achieving object recognition and image classification in the Classic Computer Vision pipeline.
What's included
3 videos2 readings1 quiz
In this module we will compare how the image classification pipeline with neural networks differs than the one with classic computer vision tools. Then we will review the basic components of a neural network. We will conclude with a tutorial in Tensor flow where we will practice how to build, train and use a neural network for image classification predictions.

Frequently asked questions
A cross-listed course is offered under two or more CU Boulder degree programs on Coursera. For example, Dynamic Programming, Greedy Algorithms is offered as both CSCA 5414 for the MS-CS and DTSA 5503 for the MS-DS.
· You may not earn credit for more than one version of a cross-listed course.
· You can identify cross-listed courses by checking your program’s student handbook.
· Your transcript will be affected. Cross-listed courses are considered equivalent when evaluating graduation requirements. However, we encourage you to take your program's versions of cross-listed courses (when available) to ensure your CU transcript reflects the substantial amount of coursework you are completing directly in your home department. Any courses you complete from another program will appear on your CU transcript with that program’s course prefix (e.g., DTSA vs. CSCA).
· Programs may have different minimum grade requirements for admission and graduation. For example, the MS-DS requires a C or better on all courses for graduation (and a 3.0 pathway GPA for admission), whereas the MS-CS requires a B or better on all breadth courses and a C or better on all elective courses for graduation (and a B or better on each pathway course for admission). All programs require students to maintain a 3.0 cumulative GPA for admission and graduation.
Yes. Cross-listed courses are considered equivalent when evaluating graduation requirements. You can identify cross-listed courses by checking your program’s student handbook.
You may upgrade and pay tuition during any open enrollment period to earn graduate-level CU Boulder credit for << this course/ courses in this specialization>>. Because << this course is / these courses are >> cross listed in both the MS in Computer Science and the MS in Data Science programs, you will need to determine which program you would like to earn the credit from before you upgrade.
MS in Data Science (MS-DS) Credit: To upgrade to the for-credit data science (DTSA) version of << this course / these courses >>, use the MS-DS enrollment form. See How It Works.
MS in Computer Science (MS-CS) Credit: To upgrade to the for-credit computer science (CSCA) version of << this course / these courses >>, use the MS-CS enrollment form. See How It Works.
If you are unsure of which program is the best fit for you, review the MS-CS and MS-DS program websites, and then contact datascience@colorado.edu or mscscoursera-info@colorado.edu if you still have questions.
