To become an expert in computer vision, start with foundational topics like image processing, feature extraction, and traditional computer vision techniques (e.g., edge detection, filtering, and keypoint detection). Then, delve into machine learning and deep learning, focusing on models such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformers for vision tasks. Master frameworks like OpenCV, PyTorch, and TensorFlow, which are essential for implementing and experimenting with computer vision algorithms. Familiarity with datasets like ImageNet, COCO, and Open Images is important for training and evaluating models. Advanced topics include 3D vision, stereo imaging, SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), and multimodal learning. Staying updated with the latest research and participating in projects or competitions can also accelerate your expertise.
