Education

The OpenCV Library
Main article: OpenCV

The OpenCV Library is a Computer Vision Software Library.

Learning OpenCV

Originally published in 2006, the book Learning OpenCV (O'Reilly) serves as an introduction to the library and its use. An updated version of the book, which covers OpenCV 3, was published by O'Reilly Media in 2016.

Publications

Bradski has published a wide variety of articles in computer science on the topics of computer vision and optimization. The following are his most highly cited works:[4]

  • 2016 Learning OpenCV 3: Computer Vision in C++ with the OpenCV Library with Adrian Kaehler, O'Reilly Media.[5]

gollark: Except the Cult of Transistor. Though we're considering allying with the diode people.
gollark: No.
gollark: Maybe I should petition to be a diode atheist and have a transistor cult.
gollark: ... so you can make a transistor out of several diodes, then, or...?
gollark: I don't believe in this "diode cult". It doesn't actually exist.
