The Present And Future Of Computer Vision

Computer vision technology of today is powered by deep learning algorithms that use a special kind of neural networks, called convolutional neural network (CNN), to make sense of images. These neural networks are trained using thousands of sample images which helps the algorithm understand and break down everything that's contained in an image. These neural networks scan images pixel by pixel, to identify patterns and "memorize" them. It also memorizes the ideal output that it should provide for each input image (in case of supervised learning) or classifies components of images by scanning characteristics such as contours and colors. This memory is then used by the systems as the reference while scanning more images.
