intermediate Python • basics of deep learning • basics of Keras and OpenCV
skills learned
build a VGG16 deep learning architecture in Keras • use custom image data generators in Keras • train VGG16 model on two different types of medical image datasets (X-ray, CT) • tune VGG16 model hyperparameters to improve performance
In this liveProject, you’ll build a VGG16 deep learning model from scratch to analyze medical imagery. A VGG16 is a deep convolutional network model which has shown to achieve high accuracy in image based pattern recognition tasks. You’ll then train your model on X-ray and CT datasets, and plot validation loss, and accuracies vs. epochs. You’ll build an important familiarity with the functional blocks of a DL model, how data must be formatted, and which layers to use to solve your problems.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
This liveProject is for intermediate Python programmers. To begin this liveProject, you will need to be familiar with:
TOOLS
Intermediate Python 3.x and Jupyter notebooks
Basics of Keras and OpenCV
TECHNIQUES
Basics of deep learning and image classification
features
Self-paced
You choose the schedule and decide how much time to invest as you build your project.
Project roadmap
Each project is divided into several achievable steps.
