Semantic Image Segmentation for Autonomous Driving

Have you ever pondered about how seamlessly we can drive a car, and why is it so difficult to get a computer to drive a car? It's because our minds are highly evolved and complex and embedding this complexity into a computer is challenging. And today we will cover a tiny fraction of our journey towards achieving self-driving cars. The task I will be discussing in this post is called semantic segmentation. Segmentation as the name suggests is the act of dividing something into separate parts.
