Computer Vision is one of the most rapidly developing fields of artificial intelligence, enabling systems to analyze images and videos as well as, and sometimes better than, humans. This course will help you not only understand the basics of CV but also deeply study modern models and learn to apply them in production.
What is computer vision and why it is needed
Computer vision trains systems to "see" and interpret visual data: identifying objects, tracking movement, recognizing faces, highlighting areas in an image, and even reading text. It is the key technology behind:
- autopilots and driverless cars;
- medical diagnostics;
- surveillance systems and facial recognition;
- robotics and production automation;
- tools for marking and analyzing visual data.
The main goal is to convert pixel data into structured information, making decisions based on visual context.
What you will learn at the bootcamp
During the course, you will explore modern computer vision architectures, including Vision Transformers and the SAM segmentation model from Meta, and learn to apply them in real projects.
Key skills and competencies
- Deeply understand how Vision Transformers process images.
- Analyze the structure and mathematics of the attention mechanism.
- Use Meta SAM for segmentation based on textual requests.
- Visualize results and assess segmentation quality.
- Combine detection and segmentation models into unified pipelines.
- Create scalable CV projects in Python.
- Deploy computer vision models in AWS.
- Design production-ready AI systems for real products.
Practical focus of the course
The course is focused on applying technologies: each lesson ends with a practical assignment, culminating in a complete CV project ready for deployment in production.
Industry tools and frameworks
- PyTorch and TensorFlow;
- Hugging Face Transformers;
- OpenCV and torchvision;
- toolkits for working with segmentation and detection;
- AWS S3, Lambda, EC2 for model production.
Learning outcome
Upon completion of the bootcamp, you will not only understand how modern computer vision models are structured but also be able to independently build, optimize, and deploy complete CV systems in a cloud infrastructure.
