Google Colaboratory and Python: Deep Learning basics for CV tasks
summary
Hands-on Colab walkthrough using Google Colaboratory with GPU access, OpenCV and matplotlib for image I/O and augmentation, and TensorFlow/Keras to build a small CNN (Conv2D 32→Conv2D 64, MaxPool, Dropout 0.25, Flatten, Dense 512, softmax 10). Trains on the CIFAR-10 dataset (60,000 32×32 color images, 10 classes), gets ~71% test accuracy after 5 epochs from scratch and ~84% validation accuracy after 5 epochs using a ResNet pretrained on ImageNet via transfer learning. Includes notes on data prep, augmentation, confusion matrices and a YOLO demo clip to try at home.
