Introduction to image classification

In this chapter, we will deal with image data. Before studying how image data quality can affect the results of a machine learning experiment, we need to understand how images are used in a machine learning experiments.

There are many methods to use images in machine learning experiments, and we won’t go through all of them as this would constitute a whole course in itself. In this course, we will only focus on a very simple method to use image data for classification.
