Not many people know this about me, but my wife and I met online when she was 18, and I was 20. It wasn’t a dating website/app like Match, eHarmony, Tinder, etc. … instead, it was Last.fm, a website that…

Optical character recognition, or OCR for short, is used to describe algorithms and techniques (both electronic and mechanical) to convert images of text to machine-encoded text. We typically think of OCR in terms of software. Namely, these are systems that:…

In this tutorial, you will learn how to implement face recognition using the Eigenfaces algorithm, OpenCV, and scikit-learn. Our previous tutorial introduced the concept of face recognition — detecting the presence of a face in an image/video and then subsequently…

In this tutorial, you will learn how to perform face recognition using Local Binary Patterns (LBPs), OpenCV, and the cv2.face.LBPHFaceRecognizer_create function. In our previous tutorial, we discussed the fundamentals of face recognition, including: The difference between face detection and face…

In this tutorial, you will build a basic Automatic License/Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system using OpenCV and Python. An ANPR-specific dataset, preferably with plates from various countries and in different conditions, is essential for training robust license plate recognition systems,…
