Object Detection

Object detection is a computer vision task that finds objects in an image or video, drawing a box around each one and saying what it is.

What is Object Detection?

It goes further than image classification, which only labels the whole image. Real-time detectors such as the YOLO family are used in vehicles, drones, robots and retail analytics.

How it works

A model predicts bounding-box coordinates and class probabilities for candidate regions, then removes overlapping duplicates.
