Some say math is useless in real life. I say: try training a nonlinear model with five samples. Have a look at this.

Learn how polynomial fitting reveals the relationship between model complexity and data requirements in machine learning. Understand why non-linear models demand more data - with real-world examples and Python code.

Wrote a Python script to automate a task I didn’t feel like doing manually. It worked beautifully — for about a week. Since then, it’s become this fragile code that breaks every time something slightly unexpected happens. So now, instead of doing the task manually, I spend twice as long fixing the automation that was supposed to save me time. Truly living the dream. But hey, at least I can say I “automated” it. 🙃

Just smile, nod, and pretend it was all part of the plan 😎
Next step? Investigate it, pray that you understand, and hope it doesn’t break again.

Edge detection is the foundation of many computer vision tasks, helping identify boundaries and object structures in an image. Here's how to get started using OpenCV in Python: 👇

🔸 1. Import Libraries
Start by importing cv2 (OpenCV) and optionally matplotlib.pyplot to display your images inline if you're using a notebook.

🔸 2. Read & Resize Image
Use cv2.imread() to read your image. Resizing ensures consistent input across different images for testing.

🔸 3. Convert to Grayscale
Edge detection works on intensity changes, so convert the image to grayscale using cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY).

🔸 4. Apply Gaussian Blur
Blurring smooths out noise and small variations, making the edge detection cleaner:
cv2.GaussianBlur(gray_img, (5,5), 0)

🔸 5. Use Canny Edge Detector
Apply the powerful cv2.Canny() function to highlight the edges.
You can experiment with threshold values to fine-tune results.

✨ Whether you're working on object detection, segmentation, or just trying to understand image features — edge detection is a great place to start!

Ever built something that actually feels smart?
Object tracking lets you do just that.

Here’s what you can build with just a we**am, Python, and OpenCV:

🎯 Face-Following We**am
Make your camera follow your face during video calls or recordings.

🚗 Vehicle Tracking System
Analyze road traffic or build the foundation of a license plate reader.

🐕 Pet Monitor
Set up a simple home system to track your pet’s movement.

🎮 Hand-Controlled Games
Track hand gestures to control simple games or apps—just using your we**am.

🧠 Learn CV by Doing
Object tracking is one of the fastest ways to learn how computer vision works in the real world.

New blog with full code and walkthrough is live.
📍Link in bio.
Tag me if you try any of these—I'd love to see what you build.
