Using Image Data Augmentation to Train a Better ML Model

Run Time: 18 Minutes

In this IoT Central MicroSession with Edge Impulse, learn the process of performing data augmentation on an image dataset, which includes flipping, translating, zooming, rotating, and adding noise. This process generates modified copies of the original data. See how to train a convolutional neural network (CNN) on Edge Impulse with the augmented dataset and demonstrate how it is more accurate than a model trained on the original data.
