Deep learning for computer vision
Computer vision enables the properties of human vision on a computer. A computer could be in the form of a smartphone, drones, CCTV, MRI scanner, and so on, with various sensors for perception. The sensor produces images in a digital form that has to be interpreted by the computer. The basic building block of such interpretation or intelligence is explained in the next section. The different problems that arise in computer vision can be effectively solved using deep learning techniques.
Classification
Image classification is the task of labelling the whole image with an object or concept with confidence. The applications include gender classification given an image of a person's face, identifying the type of pet, tagging photos, and so on. The following is an output of such a classification task:
The Chapter 21,Image Classification, covers in detail the methods that can be used for classification tasks and in Chapter 22, Image Retrieval, we use the classification...
