Preface

We received feedback from people who bought the first edition of the book and also from experts in the topic while working on the second edition of the book.

We added three new chapters and one new appendix. When the first edition was written, machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) were not yet mainstream. Today, problems that cannot be solved by using traditional image processing and computer vision techniques are being solved using ML and DL. So we added one chapter on neural network and another chapter on convolutional neural network (CNN). In these two chapters, we discuss the mathematical underpinnings of these two networks. We also discuss solving these two networks using Keras, a ML / DL library.

We also added a new chapter ...
