Body Segmentation

Lab Assignment from AI for Beginners Curriculum.

In video production, for example, in weather forecasts, we often need to cut out a human image from camera and place it on top of some other footage. This is typically done using chroma key techniques, when a human is filmed in front of a uniform color background, which is then removed. In this lab, we will train a neural network model to cut out the human silhouette.

We will be using Segmentation Full Body MADS Dataset from Kaggle. Download the dataset manually from Kaggle and unzip in into current directory.

Let's see how images in the dataset look like:
