Dog breed image classification using transfer learning

Course Description

Learn to build image classification  engine with using Transfer Learning. Transfer learning is a techqniuqe where model learned from one task can be applied to another task with little bit of fine tuning.

Andrej Karpathy, AI director at Tesla has one said "Dont try to be hero just because you want to". What this means although you could develop image classification from scratch, doing it would take several days and requires huge computing resources and big dataset. A lot of smart researchers have already spent lot of time building really good image classification networks like VGGNET, RESNET, Inception V3. These networks have been trained on imagenet animal dataset. If your dataset requires a different type of image classification, you could just start with these networks and fine tune them on your smaller dataset. This saves significant time and resources.
