This project is a sign language alphabet recognizer using Python, openCV and tensorflow for training InceptionV3 model, a convolutional neural network model for classification.
The framework used for the CNN implementation can be found here:
Simple transfer learning with an Inception V3 architecture model by xuetsing
This project uses python 3.5 and the PIP following packages:
- opencv
- tensorflow
- matplotlib
- numpy
- pipenv shell
- pipenv install
To train the model, use the following command (see framework github link for more command options):
python3 train.py \
--bottleneck_dir=logs/bottlenecks \
--how_many_training_steps=2000 \
--model_dir=inception \
--summaries_dir=logs/training_summaries/basic \
--output_graph=logs/trained_graph.pb \
--output_labels=logs/trained_labels.txt \
--image_dir=./dataset
If you're using the provided dataset, it may take up to three hours.
To test classification, use the following command:
python3 classify.py path/to/image.jpg
To use webcam, use the following command:
python3 classify_webcam.py
