In simple terms, classification is the organization or arrangement of objects, documents, etc., in categories based on their features. When the same concept is applied to images, it is referred to as Image Classification. However, basic Image Classification is an application of Machine Learning, a field of Artificial Intelligence, which was invented to bridge the gap between computer vision and human vision. By categorizing images based on their features, and storing this information in a database, we allow the system to automatically detect an object from its image the next time it encounters it.
Image classification using deep learning is revolutionizing business operations across various sectors. From the education sector to improving medical imagery, strengthening security systems, and even expediting maintenance tasks in the aviation sector, all crucial operations are utilizing this technology today. Thus, in this blog, let’s learn how image classification based on deep learning works, and how it can contribute to making your life simpler. Let’s get started.
