classAug

classAug is a Python library designed to facilitate data augmentation for machine learning tasks, particularly in the context of image classification. It provides a flexible and user-friendly interface for applying a variety of common image transformations to datasets. The primary goal of classAug is to help improve the robustness and generalization performance of classification models by artificially increasing the diversity of the training data.

The library offers a range of augmentation techniques, including geometric transformations such as rotations, translations, scaling, and flipping, as well as color-based augmentations like brightness, contrast, and saturation adjustments. Users can typically define a sequence of augmentations to be applied randomly to each image during the training process. This allows for the creation of modified versions of existing images, exposing the model to different perspectives, lighting conditions, and other variations that it might encounter in real-world scenarios.

classAug is often integrated into deep learning workflows, where it can be used to pre-process data before it is fed into a neural network. Its design emphasizes ease of use and compatibility with popular deep learning frameworks. By making data augmentation more accessible, classAug aims to empower researchers and developers to build more resilient and accurate image classification models without requiring extensive manual data collection or complex augmentation pipeline construction.
