OpenCV机器学习（影印版）

　　《OpenCV机器学习（影印版）》首先介绍了统计学习的基本概念，例如分类和回归。介绍完所有的基础知识之后，就开始探究如决策树、支持向量机、贝叶斯网络等算法，学习如何将它们与其他OpenCV功能综合运用。你的机器学习技能会随着书中内容的进度一同提高，直到准备好学习当前热门的主题：深度学习。在《OpenCV机器学习（影印版）》的结尾，你可以根据现有的源代码构建或是从头开发自己的算法来解决自己碰到的机器学习问题！

　　迈克尔·贝耶勒是华盛顿大学神经工程和数据科学专业的博士后，主攻仿生视觉计算模型，用以为盲人植入人工视网膜（仿生眼睛），改善盲人的视觉体验。他的工作属于神经科学、计算机工程、计算机视觉和机器学习的交叉领域。他也是2015年Packt出版的《OpenCV with Python Blueprints》一书的作者，该书是构建高级计算机视觉项目的实用指南。同时他也是多个开源项目的积极贡献者，具有Python、C/C++、CUDA、MATLAB和Android的专业编程经验。他还拥有加利福尼亚大学欧文分校计算机科学专业的博士学位、瑞士苏黎世联邦理工学院生物医学专业的硕士学位和电子工程专业的学士学位。当他不“呆头呆脑”地研究大脑时，他会攀登雪山、参加现场音乐会或者弹钢琴。
