📌 What is a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)?

CNNs are a specialized type of Artificial Intelligence designed for Image Recognition and Visual Pattern Detection. They excel in processing grid-like data (e.g., images) by using Convolutional Layers to automatically learn spatial hierarchies.

🔍 Key Components of CNNs

  • Convolutional Layers: Apply filters to detect edges, textures, and patterns.
  • Pooling Layers: Reduce spatial dimensions (e.g., Max Pooling).
  • Fully Connected Layers: Classify features into final outputs.
  • Activation Functions: Introduce non-linearity (e.g., ReLU).

📈 Applications of CNNs

  • Object Detection (e.g., in self-driving cars)
  • Image Classification (e.g., MNIST, CIFAR-10 datasets)
  • Medical Imaging (e.g., tumor detection)
  • Natural Language Processing (via 1D convolutions)
