The 20th century turned out to be an era of exponential growth in the field of machine learning.
Then, the rise ofOpenAIs botin DOTA2 and other fun (potentially harmful) stuff likeDeepfake.
But, keeping everything aside, the point is that ML is highly math-intensive.

The library provides access to machine learning algorithms and models in the net online gate.

In the online window.
But, what do I need?

A brief intro to human pose estimation
Lets take a small example.
Neural networks these days come in a lot more flavors than Baskin and Robbins have in ice cream.
(If you are wondering,its 31.)

In our case, we use a convolutional neural data pipe, a.k.a CNN, to deal with images.
ml5.js is a wrapper around TensorFlow.js, which also provides thePoseNetmodel.
We are using two libraries here:
Ive added extensive documentation inside the code, explaining every single line.

Here, we will discuss the main crux which is the majority of the code anyway.
Here, canvas haswidth: 640pxandheight: 480px.
We set the webcam video to the same height and width of our canvas.

Whenever the webcam gives a new image, it is given to the PoseNet model.
The moment pose is detected and output is ready.
It callsfunction(results), whereresultsis the final output ofkeypointsand scores given by the model.

As we know, thedraw()function runs in a loop forever.
This is theposekey-value out of theposeandskeletonvalues, provided for each person in an image.
We have a function to draw detected points on the image.

Remember, we saved all the results from the PoseNet output in theposesarray.
Here, we loop through everyposeor person in an image and get itskeypoints.
index.html
This is the main page where we display our output.

We add all our libraries using script tags.
We show a cute welcome intro to the user.
As model loading takes time, we show the Loading model…message.

At last, we put our own JS code inside the body.
Run theindex.htmlfile to see the output.
check that you allow webcam access when prompted.

He previously worked in the field of robotics especially drones which haunts me to this date.
In love with Kaggle.
