In the previous chapter, we discovered how to classify images using a standard multilayer perceptron (MLP) and a convolutional neural network (CNNs). During classification tasks, we predict the class of the entire image and do not care what kind of objects are in the image. In this chapter, we will detect objects and their locations within the image.

The learning objectives of this chapter are as follows:

• We will explore some of the popular deep learning algorithms used in object detection.

• We will train our own object detection ...
