Convolutional Neural Networks

Definition

Convolutional Neural Networks, or CNNs, are a type of artificial intelligence algorithm for processing visual data. These networks utilize specialized layers, such as convolutional layers and pooling layers, to automatically detect hierarchical patterns within images, video, or other grid-like data. Their architecture allows them to learn spatial features directly from raw input, making them highly effective for tasks like image recognition, object detection, and computer vision applications. CNNs have significantly advanced capabilities in machine perception.
