A neural network can also be used to recognize images. Image recognition (image classification) is one of the most important branches of artificial intelligence. Computer vision is actually a visual pattern recognition technology. It is widely used by banks to process checks and by post offices to recognize addresses. There are many areas (self-driving cars, face recognition, and so on) where image recognition is extremely important.

At the same time, image recognition is one of the most difficult disciplines ...
