Google could soon 'see' like humans with its image recognition program

As humans, we can distinguish between different objects easily - such as dogs wearing hats, or between oranges and bananas in a bag - but for computers this has been typically much more difficult. A team of Google researchers has developed an advanced image classification and detection algorithm called GoogLeNet, which is twice as effective than previous programs. It is so accurate it can locate and distinguish between a range of object sizes within a single image, and it can also determine an object within, or on top of, an object, within the photo. A team of California-based Google researchers developed GoogLeNet, that uses an advanced classification and detection algorithm to identify object. The software recently placed first in the ImageNet large-scale visual recognition challenge (ILSVRC).
