In the previous chapter, we learned that as the number of images available in the training dataset increased, the classification accuracy of the model kept on increasing, to the extent that a training dataset comprising 8,000 images had a higher accuracy on the validation dataset than a training dataset comprising 1,000 images. However, we do not always have the option of hundreds or thousands of images, along with the ground truths of their corresponding classes, in order to train a model. This is where transfer learning comes to the rescue.
