Object Detection

Object Detection is a computer vision task that combines image classification and localization, identifying what objects are in an image and outputting bounding boxes around their coordinates.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bounding box in object detection?

A rectangular box defined by coordinates `[x_min, y_min, x_max, y_max]` outlining the location of the detected entity.

What is YOLO in object detection?

You Only Look Once (YOLO) is a popular object detection algorithm that processes the entire image in a single forward pass, making it fast enough for real-time video frames.
