Deep Learning based Background Removal from Images using TensorFlow and Python

In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to use deep learning to remove background from images with TensorFlow. In short, we’ll use DeepLabV3+, a semantic segmentation based model to extract the background and foreground mask from the image. We are going to use these masks to extract the Continue Reading

VGG16 UNET Implementation in TensorFlow

In this article, we are going to implement the most widely used image segmentation architecture called UNET. We are going to replace the UNET encoder with the VGG16 implementation from the TensorFlow library. The UNET encoder would learn the features from scratch, while the VGG16 is already trained on the Continue Reading
