Image augmentation techniques.

Flip50% of horizontal and vertical flip on all images.

AffineTranslation: move each image −20 to +20% per axis
Rotation: rotate each image by −30 to 30 degrees
Scaling: zoom in each image by 0.5 to 1.5 times

MultiplyMultiplication of each image by a random value sampled from [0.8, 1.2].

Linear contrastChange contrast by equation
127 + alpha  (v-127)
V: pixel value
Alpha: samples from [0.6, 1.4]

Gaussian blurBlur the images using Gaussian kernel with standard deviation sampled from the interval [0.0, 3.0].
