Deep learning cat detection API using OpenCV

Following the same approach we performed in the previous example-Minimal face API using OpenCV, we are going to create a deep learning API using OpenCV. More specifically, we will see how to create a deep learning cat detection API. The cat_detection_api project codes the web server application. The main.py script is responsible for parsing the requests and for building the response to the client. The code of this script is as follows:

# Import required packages:from flask import Flask, request, jsonifyimport urllib.requestfrom image_processing import ImageProcessingapp = Flask(__name__)ip = ImageProcessing()@app.errorhandler(400)def bad_request(e):    # return also the code error    return jsonify({ ...
