Achieving computer vision with deep learning

To start with, let's understand the term deep learning. It simply means multilayered neural networks. The multiple layers enable deep learning to be an enhanced and powerful form of a neural network. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been in existence since the 1950s. They have always been designed with two layers; however, deep learning models are built with multiple hidden layers. The following diagram shows a hypothetical deep learning model:

Deep learning model—High level architecture

Neural networks are heavy on computation, therefore the central processing unit (CPU) that can be enabled with a maximum of 22 cores is generally thought of as an infrastructure blocker until recently. This infrastructure limitation also limited the usage of neural networks to solve real-world problems. However, recently, the availability...
