Ask HN: OpenCV or OpenGL

For machine learning neither OpenGL and OpenCV will help you very much. OpenGL is a 3D graphics library, OpenCV is a Computer Vision Library. OpenCV handles things like detecting faces or objects in an image or video feed. Machine learning is the process of teaching a computer to detect specific types of objects in graphics, or to understand say how a tv or movie script is written. The goal of machine learning is to teach a machine to do something like write a movie script based on hundred of other movie scripts. If your end goal is to learn about Machine Learning then I would suggest you look at something like Google's Tesnsor Flow instead. OpenGL and OpenCV wont help you at all really. However they may be required to feed data into your Machine Learning system.

Any chance you could lend me a hand with some C++ code? If so, shoot me a message: ar@pm.me. Thanks!

you should learn vulkan/cuda or deep learning at this point, in my opinion.

What are your goals?
