Apache Spark Deep Learning Cookbook

Getting ready

Once again much of the heavy lifting is already done for us. We will use a popular Python package, augmentor, that is frequently used with machine learning and deep learning modeling to generate additional versions of existing images distorted and augmented for variety. 

The package will first have to be pip installed using the following script: pip install augmentor

We should then have confirmation that the package is installed, as seen in the following screenshot:

We will then need to import the pipeline class from augmentor:

• from Augmentor import Pipeline
