INTRODUCTION
You probably already know that deep learning and machine learning are a broad computer science branch, which studies the design and architecture of models that can learn. Deep learning is a broad subfield of MI or machine learning which is entirely inspired by neural networks that are inspired by human or biological neural networks.
One specific type of artificial neural network is the CNN or convolutional neural network, that is commonly referred to as ConvNet. It is a type of a feed-forwards deep neural network. You probably already know that feed-forward neural networks are the quintessential deep learning algorithms referred to as MLPs or multi-perceptron. They are called feed-forwards as information contained in them flows right through the models. They are called feed-forward as there are no feedback connections and the outputs of the algorithm are fed back into itself.
Convolutional neural networks are entirely inspired by the human or biological visual cortex. The cortex contains very small regions of cells, which are highly sensitive to certain areas of the human visual field. This main idea of CNNs was to expand upon an experiment that was performed by Hubel and Wiesel back in 1962. In this experiment, Hubel and Wiesel showed that specific brain neurons can be fired or activated when there is the presence of edges of very specific orientation such as horizontal or vertical edges.
For instance, certain neurons when exposed to vertical sides times show a horizontal edge. The two scientists, Hubel and Wiesel, later found that these neurons were, in fact, well ordered in columnar fashion, so together they were able to produce correct visual perception. The Hubel and Wiesel idea of a specialized component contained inside a system that has specific tasks, is the main concept used in convolutional neural networks.
When it comes to the broad field of computer vision, CNNs have been one of the most important innovations. Convolutional neural networks have performed much better than those traditional computer vision techniques and tools. CNNs have also proven to be amazingly successfully in many other computer vision areas like object detection, image classification, segmentation, and face recognition. CNNs are doing great in
