Computer Vision Applications
This course provides an introduction to machine learning for computer vision with a focus on practical applications relevant to industry teams. In this course, we will “reverse-engineer” a number of applications, such as traffic flow analysis, digital medicine, optical character recognition, and video analytics. We will discuss the fundamental machine learning principles required to build these applications, focusing on practical tools instead of algorithmic details. You will build these applications from scratch, using open-source tools that cover the full stack of modern machine learning, from datasets to deployment. By the end of the course, you will have built a portfolio of computer vision applications that you can reference or share with your team and colleagues.
Course taught by expert instructors
Abubakar Abid
Machine Learning Team Lead at Hugging Face
Abubakar has been building machine learning models for over a decade. He did his PhD at Stanford in deep learning applied to medical images and videos. During his PhD, he developed Gradio (www.gradio.dev), an open-source Python library for creating GUIs for machine learning models. Since Gradio’s acquisition by Hugging Face, Abubakar continues to lead the Gradio team and also teaches machine learning at Hugging Face and beyond!

Course success stories
Learn together and share experiences with other industry professionals
The concepts and tools covered are highly relevant to industrial applications of computer vision, the projects are fun and help to solidify learnings, and the quality of instruction is very high.
I entered this course with a basic knowledge of the fundamentals of machine learning, and by the time I finished I felt confident enough to start tackling computer vision projects on my own. This was a great crash course in both computer vision as well as modern deep learning workflows.
Abubakar is amongst the best teachers I’ve ever had. I was entirely new to machine learning yet he was able to distill complicated concepts clearly and effectively. I felt everywhere else was teaching me just the surface, but Abubakar was able to tie the theory, practice and intuition together.
The course was amazing. The content was great, the projects were not only hands on, but also practical applications that I could send to my friends. And also this course set the foundations for me to develop other projects. I also liked a lot that we used huggingface and other pretty new technologies that are not normally part of other ML online courses that I've seen.
This course is a perfect course for one yearning to build AI vision applications. I had lot of fun learning and working through the project in this course!
It has been my pleasure to be Abubakar Abid's student as he has taught visual algorithms. Abubakar is an excellent educator with a great ability to explain complex concepts in a simple and intuitive manner, something that has made learning enjoyable for me. Not only is he very highly capable from the technical aspects, but he is also an outstanding communicator
