Computer vision is an exciting field of computer science where the overarching goal is to draw inferences from digital media. The objective is to develop techniques that can train computers to understand the content of digital images and videos and replicate the capability of human vision. With the advent of deep learning (DL) algorithms and the availability of high-performance computation mechanisms, there has been a significant increase in the use of computer vision in a variety of industries, such as healthcare, retail, autonomous vehicles, robotics, facial recognition, and many more. In this chapter, we will demonstrate some interesting and commonly used applications of DL in the field of computer vision.
In this chapter, we will cover the following recipes:
- Object localization
- Face recognition
