Study Notes
Computer Vision
-
Definition: A field of artificial intelligence that enables computers to interpret and understand visual information from the world.
-
Key Concepts:
- Image Processing: Techniques to enhance or manipulate images for analysis (e.g., filtering, edge detection).
- Feature Extraction: Identifying and describing key attributes of images, such as shapes and textures.
- Object Detection: Locating and classifying objects within an image or video (e.g., YOLO, SSD algorithms).
- Image Classification: Assigning a label to an entire image based on its content (e.g., identifying cats vs. dogs).
- Semantic Segmentation: Dividing an image into parts and classifying each part (e.g., differentiating foreground from background).
-
Applications:
- Autonomous Vehicles: Using cameras and sensors to navigate and respond to the environment.
- Medical Imaging: Analyzing X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans for diagnosis.
- Facial Recognition: Identifying or verifying individuals based on facial features.
- Augmented Reality: Integrating digital information with the real world through visual overlays.
-
Techniques:
- Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs): A deep learning architecture particularly effective for image-related tasks.
- Transfer Learning: Reusing pre-trained models on new tasks to save time and resources.
- Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): Using two neural networks to generate new images based on learned distributions.
-
Challenges:
- Variability: Handling changes in lighting, perspective, and occlusions in images.
- Data Quality and Quantity: Need for large, diverse datasets for training effective models.
- Interpretability: Understanding how models arrive at decisions can be complex.
-
Future Trends:
- Real-time Processing: Enhancing the speed and efficiency of computer vision applications.
- Integration with Other AI Fields: Combining computer vision with natural language processing for more contextual understanding.
- Ethical Considerations: Addressing privacy concerns and biases in image recognition systems.
