Convolutional Neural Networks, or CNNs, extract information from images with the help of sequential pooling and convolutional layers. This deep-learning network feeds the extracted data into single or several connected layers for classification or prediction. Although CNN architectures vary based on the job or issues they are meant to solve, a standard Convolutional Neural Network has these components: Input layer Convolutional layers Pooling layers Normalized layers Fully linked layers Dense layers Applications of Convolutional Neural Networks in the AI Industry 1. Image Classification In healthcare, retail, and security industries, CNN is used to classify images by identifying and recognizing objects or faces. 2. Object Surveillance Widely used in autonomous vehicles, robots, and high-tech surveillance systems, convolutional neural networks detect objects in an image or video to track their movements over a particular period of time. 3. Image Segmentation CNN breaks down images into individual components. For example, it can study medical images and identify different parts of the human body, which is why CNN is widely used in biotechnology and healthcare. 4. Natural Language Processing (NLP) In Natural Language Processing, CNNs are used for text classification and sentiment analysis. CNN’s NLP ability makes it indispensable in advertising, e-commerce, and social media. 5. Style transfer In artistic applications, CNN can transfer the style from one image to another. For instance, CNN can transform a painting into a photo format. 6. Speech Recognition In applications that require speech recognition- especially in call centers, voice assistants, and the automotive industry, CNNs help convert speech to text and help recognize various accents. 7. Recommender Systems In e-commerce, finance, and entertainment, CNNs analyze user data to make personalized customer recommendations.

Computer vision is a branch of Artificial Intelligence used to develop techniques that enable computers to process visual input from JPEG files or camera videos and images. Applications of Computer Vision 1. Object Tracking Computer vision enables the detection of videos and images by machines. With this detection, devices can provide real-time identification and tracking of objects. This object tracking by computer vision is used extensively in robotics, security systems, and autonomous vehicles. 2. Augmented reality Augmented reality experiences are created with computer vision to overlay digital information over the real world. Computer vision in augmented reality is used in various applications such as gaming, training, and education. 3. Robotics Computer vision enables robots to interact and move around in their environment, making them more autonomous and capable. 4. Facial recognition Facial recognition technology widely applied in security systems, and law enforcement uses computer vision to recognize facial features and identify individuals. 5. Visual search Using computer vision, users can find relevant information faster by assisting machines to recognize and identify products, objects, and places within images and videos. 6. Autonomous systems Many autonomous systems like self-driving cars, robots, and drones use computer vision to understand their surroundings and make decisions accordingly. 7. Medical imaging Diagnostic tests such as CT scans, MRI scans, and x-rays are powered by computer vision. By analyzing medical images, computer vision facilitates a more accurate diagnosis of the disease.

COCO is a large-scale segmentation, captioning, and object detection dataset. This dataset compiles ninety objects such as sports balls, dogs, cats, horses, persons, cars, etc. COCO was invented to aid computer applications like semantic and instance segmentation, image classification, visual answering, and object detection. Applications of COCO 1. Object detection COCO trains and tests object detection models that can identify and locate multiple objects in an image and assign labels. 2. Semantic segmentation COCO is used to semantically segment images and assign labels to each pixel. When trained on COCO, models can be categorized into different regions and given various labels like person, tree, flower, etc. 3. Instance segmentation Instance segmentation comprises semantic segmentation and object detection. COCO trains instance and segmentation models to identify and categorize individual objects in a complete image and assign labels. 4. Captioning COCO-trained models caption images by generating natural language descriptions of the object and the various activities in the picture.
