Data Augmentation with Python

This is the code repository for Data Augmentation with Python, published by Packt.

Enhance deep learning accuracy with data augmentation methods for image, text, audio, and tabular data

What is this book about?

Data is paramount in AI projects, especially for deep learning and generative AI, as forecasting accuracy relies on input datasets being robust. Acquiring additional data through traditional methods can be challenging, expensive, and impractical, and data augmentation offers an economical option to extend the dataset.

This book covers the following exciting features:

Write OOP Python code for image, text, audio, and tabular data
Access over 150,000 real-world datasets from the Kaggle website
Analyze biases and safe parameters for each augmentation method
Visualize data using standard and exotic plots in color
Discover 32 advanced open source augmentation libraries
Explore machine learning models, such as BERT and Transformer
Meet Pluto, an imaginary digital coding companion
Extend your learning with fun facts and fun challenges

Following is what you need for this book: This book is for data scientists and students interested in the AI discipline. Advanced AI or deep learning skills are not required; however, knowledge of Python programming and familiarity with Jupyter Notebooks are essential to understanding the topics covered in this book.

With the following software and hardware list you can run all code files present in the book (Chapter 1-9).

Software and Hardware List

This book to be a hands-on journey. It will be more effective to read a chapter, run the code on the Python Notebook, re-read the chapter’s part that confused you, and jump back to hacking the code until the concept or technique is firmly understood.

Software required	OS required
Python	Chrome, Edge, Safari, or FireFox browser on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
Jupyter Notebook (Python Notebook)
Python standard libraries, Panda, Matplotlib, and Numpy
Python image, text, audio, and tabular data augmentation libraries.

The default online Jupyter Notebook is the Google Colab. You need a Google account. For other online Jupyter Notebook, like Kaggle, Microsoft, or other online Jupyter Notebook, you need sign up or have an account to their services.

We also provide a PDF file that has color images of the screenshots/diagrams used in this book. Click here to download it.

🤠 Get to Know the Author

Duc Haba is a lifelong technologist and researcher. He has been a programmer, Enterprise Mobility Solution Architect, AI Solution Architect, Principal, VP, CTO, and CEO. The companies range from startups and IPOs to enterprise companies.

Duc’s career started with Xerox Parc, researching and building expert systems (ruled-based) for copier diagnostic, and skunk works for the USA DOD. Afterward, he joined Oracle, following Viant Consulting as a founding member. He dove deep into the entrepreneurial culture in Silicon Valley. There were slightly more failures than successes, but the highlights are Viant and RRKidz. Currently, he is happy working at YML.co as the AI Solution Architect.

The book is only possible with the support of my family, fellow researchers, and a gang of professionals at Packt Publishing. Above all else, I hope you enjoy reading the book and hacking the Python Notebook as much as I enjoyed writing it.
