Chapter 5: Computer Vision Case Study

This chapter details a computer vision case study using the SAS programming language.

One of the world’s foremost medical research centers seeks to build a computer vision model to automatically extract and summarize an understanding of metabolic pathways from an image depicting the structure. That is, understanding the geometric sequence created by a series of chemical compounds and arrows. The images are parsed from research papers or journals.

This case study details a solution that involves creating a two-stage computer vision model. The first stage relies on an object localization (detection) model. An image classifier is used in the second stage to classify the orientation of an extracted arrow. ...
