The discussion in this book will provide readers deep understanding about the backpropagation neural networks architecture and its parameters. The readers will be guided to understand the steps of the backpropagation neural networks for image classification through case example. The readers will be guided to create their own neural networks class and build their complete applications for data image classification.
The final objective of this book is that the readers are able to realize each step of the multilayer perceptron neural networks for image classification. In Addition, the readers also are able to create the neural networks applications which consists of two types of applications which are command window based application and GUI based application.
Here are the material that you will learn in this book.
CHAPTER 1: This chapter will guide you in preparing what software are needed to realize the backpropagation neural networks using Python GUI. The discussion in this chapter will start from installing Python and the libraries that will be used, installing Qt Designer, understanding and using Qt Designer to design the application UI, and the last is about how to create a GUI program using Python and Qt Designer.
CHAPTER 2: This chapter discusses the important parts in the backpropagation neural networks algorithm which includes the architecture of the backpropagation neural networks, the parameters contained in the backpropagation neural networks, the steps of the backpropagation neural networks algorithm, and the mathematical calculations of the backpropagation neural networks.
CHAPTER 3: This chapter discusses in detail the mathematical calculations of fruit quality classification using the backpropagation neural networks which includes the feature extraction process of fruit images, data normalization, the training process, and the classification process. The feature extraction method used in this case is GLCM (Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix). The image features that will be used in this case are energy, contrast, entropy, and homogeneity.
CHAPTER 4: This chapter discusses how to implement the backpropagation neural networks algorithm for fruit quality classification using Python. This chapter will present the steps to create your backpropagation neural networks class and to define the functions that represent each process of the backpropagation neural networks. This chapter will also present the steps to create a class for image processing. And in final discussion you will be guided to create your backpropagation neural networks application from scratch to classify the quality of fruit.
CHAPTER 5: This chapter will discuss how to create a GUI based application for fruit quality classification using the backpropagation neural networks algorithm. This chapter will discuss in detail the steps for designing the application UI by using Qt Designer, the steps for creating a class for the backpropagation neural networks GUI based application, and how to run the GUI based application to classify the fruit data.
Hamzan Wadi was born in Turida on May 1990. After completing college with interest in Cryptography, he founded the Institute for Programming Education and Training. This institution is projected to be able to accommodate young generation in West Nusa Tenggara to develop their talents in the world of computing and informatics. Besides actively teaching, he also became an IT consultant and software developer. He has developed a number of SME (Small and Medium Enterprise) web sites based on ASP.NET, PHP, and JSP. The author is also developing corporate-level database applications using ORACLE, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server. The author is also actively conducting research on digital signal processing, image processing, and video processing which combined with data science and machine learning.
