Identifying Playing Cards May 2018

Developed in python using computer vision techniques

Studied the similarity between cards as a heat map of their similarity matrix for insight

Steps involved image smoothing, edge detection from edge map to extract the boundaries of the card, identifying objects using hough transform and nally, template matching

Two approaches were used and compared for accuracy and speed, rst used the whole card as templates, and second approach used the number and the suite of the card and parsed them separately for a 2 step template matching.
