Convolutional Neural Networks

A Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) is a form of artificial neural networks in machine learning. We will first inspect the CNN, and then move on to the RNN. A CNN has proven to be very reliable and accurate at image classification, and is used in IoT deployments for visual recognition, especially in security systems. It is a good starting point to understand the process and mathematics behind any artificial neural network. Any data that can be represented as a fixed bitmap (say, a 1024 x 768 pixel image in three planes). A CNN attempts to classify an image to a label (for example, cat, dog, fish, bird) based on an additive set of decomposable features. The primitive features that compose image content are built ...
