About the Course

This course will walk you through a hands-on project suitable for a portfolio. You will be introduced to third-party APIs and will be shown how to manipulate images using the Python imaging library (pillow), how to apply optical character recognition to images to recognize text (tesseract and py-tesseract), and how to identify faces in images using the popular opencv library. By the end of the course you will have worked with three different libraries available for Python 3 to create a real-world data-analysis project. The course is best-suited for learners who have taken the first four courses of the Python 3 Programming Specialization. Learners who already have Python programming skills but want to practice with a hands-on, real-world data-analysis project can also benefit from this course. This is the fifth and final course in the Python 3 Programming Specialization....

This last course is much more challenging than the prior four, but provides a very good launch pad for taking what you've learned and getting you actually using the skills in building Python code.

This course gave great insight in how to approach a new library which I believe is one of the most powerful skills a programmer can have. Keep up the great work that you guys have been doing.

This course makes you figure stuff out on your own, which is important. However, I do think there is a lot of stuff skipped, and I do think there are better methods than what is presented here. All in all, it can angry some to pay for a course where there is little actual teaching/showing what to do.

This is a lab, not an academic course. It does not present in-depth knowledge of these modules,. You'll learn as well from other sources, like pyimagesearch.com which has far more explanations on opencv and training models.. Not quite a waste of time, but a dissapointment.

I personally liked much more other courses of the specialization. There are no intermediate exercises in this one, and I find the instructor not as effective as the previous ones. All in all, it gives a good approximation of what it means to struggle with daily projects.

Not good compared to previous courses in this specialisation. Lots of omissions (such as selecting a library not available for Windows). At least the omissions encouraged us to self-educate more in order to fix the errors, but that's not how a course should be taught.

Previous courses of this specialization were best taught.

But in this course the instructor moves forward throughout the course very quickly , It was difficult to move with this pace.

Although from this course we also learn something new but in difficult manner.

It was difficult not because there is a learning involved. Seems that Image libraries are not documented well. This course could be planned better. May be choice of final project - business application use case along side OCR will make it better.

thanks Atul

please explain deeply and please teach some projects then give project as assignment to students.

we don't have enough knowledge about how to create project and actually how its work.

you give lot of practice exercises easily but give a project like hell.

Muito diferente dos cursos anteriores do programa que focaram no ensino da linguagem e não de biblioteca específica. Na minha visão este curso não deveria ser parte do programa, mas ser ofertado para quem queira trabalhar com visão computacional.

Very different than previous courses in the specialization. Tooling switched to Jupyter lab and pace increases significantly. Final project is quite challenging with some frustrating tooling issues upon submission of the code.

These course is more difficult with less theory, I think the course should be in a certain increasing level of project , not like only one project with high difficulty. Anyways the instructor is good and really Hard working

I hope to improve the materials of this course to make it cover the the assignments and project questions, where I made more effort to find the solutions by searching in web instead of using the included materials.

I understand the concept of the capstone project but there are too many issues outside of the course itself (setting Jupyter notebook, submitting project) to make it really enjoyable for a beginner

The weakest of the 5 blocks.

It is not as well prepared with exercises and practices like the other 4 based on runstone environment.

Nevertheless, the contents are super interesting and useful!

The material is interesting. But the course needs some work. It's basically lots of information, little practice or exercises, and one big project at the end.

The way of teaching is less effective relative to the previous courses in this specialization.

The final assignment submission can be better. Please improve it.

Me parece que el salto de dificultad respecto a los cursos 1-4 es muy alto. La materia es mucho más compleja y se imparte demasiado rápido para mi gusto.

Good for learning about API's. I've never been interested in Jupyter Notebooks. The assignments weren't straightforward and the peer reviewers ...

The content is very very insteresting, however the way is presented is not the best. Much better the courses 1 to 4 in organization and metodology.

A little unclear about how to get our hands wet on these libraries. The notebook environment keeps having bugs that slow down the learning process.

Not very well maintained over time. Small errors here and there that make it an unnecessary challenge to complete the course.

Good experience of coding But the videos are too fast to understand overall good course

I woud prefer a course with more hours, to have the codes explained in a detailed pace.

Courses 1 to 4 of this were very well made and structured. This one not so much.

The content is good, the way the training organized needs to be improved.
