You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
Face ApplicationsLearn how to use Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV for face applications, including face recognition, facial landmarks, liveness detection, and more using my face application guides.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to blur and anonymize faces using OpenCV and Python. Today’s blog post is inspired by an email I received last week from PyImageSearch reader, Li Wei: Hi Adrian, I’m working on a research…
