    Study Notes

    Image Classification / Regression and More

    • Image Classification involves assigning discrete labels to images (e.g., categories, tags)
    • Examples include face recognition, emotion detection, object identification
    • Regression involves assigning continuous values, representing an underlying function or property (e.g., age estimation, depth estimation)
    • Examples like age prediction from faces, object localization

    • Images are multidimensional arrays (tensors)
    • Each element is a pixel, representing light intensity at a specific area
    • Gray-scale images contain a single value for intensity
