Object Detection

Definition

Object detection is a core task in computer vision that not only identifies objects present in an image but also precisely locates them, typically using bounding boxes. YOLO and Faster R-CNN are the leading object detection algorithms.

Usage Example

Autonomous vehicles use real-time object detection to identify pedestrians, vehicles, and traffic signs.

Image Segmentation

Image segmentation divides an image into multiple regions with semantic meaning. It includes semantic segmentation (pixel-level classification) and instance segmentation (distinguishing individual objects of the same class), and is widely used in medical imaging analysis and autonomous driving.
