Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are a class of deep neural networks that are particularly effective for analyzing visual imagery. They are widely used in various fields such as image recognition, object detection, and natural language processing.
Key Concepts
- Convolutional Layers: These layers apply various filters to the input image to extract features such as edges, textures, and shapes.
- Pooling Layers: These layers reduce the spatial dimensions of the input, which helps in reducing the computational complexity and capturing the most important features.
- Fully Connected Layers: These layers connect every neuron in the previous layer to every neuron in the current layer, allowing the network to learn complex patterns.
Example
Here is an example of a simple CNN architecture:
Input -> Convolutional Layer -> Pooling Layer -> Convolutional Layer -> Pooling Layer -> Fully Connected Layer -> Output
