Using OpenCV ANN MLP to Train a Model on Iris Flower Dataset

Even though OpenCV is mainly a Computer Vision Library, it still contains a large set of very powerful mathematical functions, optimization algorithms and even GUI utilities that can be useful in other applications as well. Besides the fact that it’s open source and has a very permissive license, the emphasis on speed and performance which has always been the main goal of OpenCV, makes it even more appealing for commercial grade applications. That was my main motivation behind writing this post, and I want to walk you through it with a classical machine learning example, that is training a multilayer perceptron to classify Iris Flower Dataset entries.
