Understanding Image Recognition and Object Detection"_

 Image recognition and object detection are similar techniques and are often used together. Image recognition identifies which object or scene is in an image; object detection finds instances and locations of those objects in images.  Common object detection techniques are Faster R-CNN and YOLOv3. Why Image Recognition Matters ?       Image recognition can speed up tedious tasks and process images faster or more accurately than manual image inspection. Image recognition is a crucial technique in many applications, and is the main driver in deep learning applications like: Visual Inspection: Identifying parts as defective or non-defective in manufacturing can quickly inspect thousands of parts on an assembly line. Image Classification: Categorizing images based on the image content. This is especially useful in applications such as image retrieval and recommender systems in e-commerce. Automated Driving: The ability to recognize a stop sign or a pedestrian in an ...
