Chapter 9. Image Tagging
A picture may be worth a thousand words to us humans, but to a computer, a picture provides just a few descriptions, if that. In fairness, image data is incredibly complex to a machine, and it’s taken many advances in artificial intelligence to get where we are today. While computers may be lacking in picture recognition, they excel in their speed and scale of analysis.

By the end of this chapter, you will learn the fundamentals of computer vision and its relationship to artificial neural networks. You will also see examples of how organizations leverage object recognition for problem solving and data-driven analytics. Finally, you will be familiar with the benefits and limitations of image tagging within Power BI and confidently apply it to a real-world dataset of AirBnB listings for building a novel report.
