AI for Video: A Complete Guide to Intelligence in Video Products: From Models and Inference to Computer Vision, Speech, Search, and Generative Video
Computer vision is usually the first AI layer on raw frames, and its accuracy sets the ceiling for every feature built on top. This volume covers computer vision in detail: detection, tracking, segmentation, pose and OCR, plus the lifecycle of an AI feature and the deployment topologies for edge and cloud. Written by Nikolay Sapunov, CEO at Fora Soft.
