What is Image Segmentation?

In this article, I will take you through a brief explanation of Image Segmentation in Deep Learning. I will only explain the concept behind the image segmentation here in this article. If you want to go through the practical part of Image Segmentation you can see it's tutorial here. In Image segmentation, each pixel is classified according to the class of the object it belongs to (e.g., road, car, pedestrian, building, etc.), as shown in the figure below. Note that different objects of the same class are not distinguished.
