A Simple Convolutional Neural Network Summary for Binary Image Classification With Keras.

Convolutional neural networks (CNN's) are the main deep learning tool to use for image processing. I recently used a CNN for my latest student project here at Flatiron and got to have a look at how they work and how they differ from dense neural networks, in addition to how they perform better when working with images and python. In my project, I was able to classify patient x-ray images to determine whether they had pneumonia or not. There are also many other uses for image processing in the medical field and in other fields of work and study. Next, we'll try to show the simplest, most basic breakdown of some of these steps so that you can get on your way to building a CNN for image classification with Keras.
