Image Classification Tools

Tools and libraries designed for image classification tasks.

Supported Solution Fields​

When to Use​

  • When you need to classify images into categories
  • When you have labeled image datasets for training
  • When you want to implement custom image classifiers

When Not to Use​

  • When you need a general-purpose solution
  • When you lack sufficient labeled data
  • When you need real-time predictions

Tradeoffs​

  • Feature Engineering: Requires good feature representation
  • Cold Start Problem: New categories may not be effectively classified

Commercial Implementations​

  • Keras

    • High-level neural networks API
    • Supports image classification with various architectures

  • OpenCV

    • Open-source computer vision library
    • Supports image processing and classification

Common Combinations​

  • Object detection systems
  • Facial recognition systems
  • Medical image analysis
