In machine learning, more data means better models. But what do you do when data is scarce, expensive, or hard to collect? The answer is data augmentation. This book shows you how to generate synthetic data that can help your models generalize better, reduce overfitting, and perform well on unseen examples. Data Augmentation Techniques is a hands-on guide for expanding your datasets with a variety of augmentation methods across different domains-images, text, audio, and more.

In machine learning, more data means better models. But what do you do when data is scarce, expensive, or hard to collect? The answer is data augmentation. This book shows you how to generate synthetic data that can help your models generalize better, reduce overfitting, and perform well on unseen examples. Data Augmentation Techniques is a hands-on guide for expanding your datasets with a variety of augmentation methods across different domains-images, text, audio, and more. You'll learn how to apply techniques like geometric transformations, cropping, flipping, and color variation for image data; word embeddings, paraphrasing, and back-translation for text; and pitch shifts and noise addition for audio. The book dives into both classical and advanced augmentation strategies, including generative models like GANs and VAEs for creating realistic synthetic data. With practical, real-world examples in Python using libraries like TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras, and OpenCV, you'll gain the skills to transform your datasets and unlock the full potential of your machine learning models. You'll also learn how to handle imbalanced datasets, generate labeled data for rare classes, and evaluate the impact of augmented data on model performance. By the end of this book, you'll have the techniques and tools to augment data across domains, improve model accuracy, and make your machine learning systems more robust and scalable. Buy this book now and start expanding your datasets with powerful augmentation techniques that help your models succeed.
