About the Topic

The recent introduction of Deep Learning has disrupted the field of Computer Vision. In this talk, we will give a step-by-step walkthrough of using Keras Deep Learning Framework to analyze camera images and tell apart if a particular driver is well-behaved or is distracted (e.g. texting, drinking, reaching behind, etc). Our approach achieved Top 4% in the StateFarm Distracted Driver competition organized by Kaggle.
