Description:

Computer Vision applications typically employ numerical analysis that is very similar to and in some cases borrows from Data Science topics - algorithms such as RANSAC for point detection in an image for instance. This discussion will cover the combination of computer vision, pattern recognition and data science into an image processing pipeline that is designed to help deter fraudulent account access. In particular this pipeline acts as a "weak classifier" among an ensemble of classifiers that are used to determine whether or not an image is valid or whether it is likely to be fraudulent.
