Computer vision is an area of artificial intelligence that deals with visual perception. Azure AI Vision includes multiple services that support common computer vision scenarios.

Prerequisites

Before starting this workshop, you should already have:
  • Familiarity with Azure and the Azure portal.
  • Experience programming with C# or Python. If you have no previous programming experience, we recommend you complete the Take your first steps with C# or Take your first steps with Python learning path before starting this one.

Outline

Module 1: Analyze images
With the Azure AI Vision service, you can use pre-trained models to analyze images and extract insights and information from them.
  • Introduction
  • Provision an Azure AI Vision resource
  • Analyze an image
  • Generate a smart-cropped thumbnail
  • Exercise - Analyze images with Azure AI Vision
  • Knowledge check
  • Summary
Module 2: Classify images
Image classification is used to determine the main subject of an image. You can use the Azure AI Custom Vision services to train a model that classifies images based on your own categorizations.

Thinking about Onsite?

If you need training for 3 or more people, you should ask us about onsite training. Putting aside the obvious location benefit, content can be customised to better meet your business objectives and more can be covered than in a public classroom. Its a cost effective option. One on one training can be delivered too, at reasonable rates.

Submit an enquiry from any page on this site and let us know you are interested in the requirements box, or simply mention it when we contact you.
