What Is YOLO Object Detection?
YOLO or You Only Look Once is a real-time object detection algorithm. Image classification applications fall under convolutional neural networks. YOLO is one of the most effective and popular methods and that is thanks to the most innovative ideas from the computer vision research community.
Simple image classification and Object Detection are quite different and pose an exciting challenge for this community. Object detection is mostly associated with self-driving cars and video surveillance. This method is concentrating on a speed-oriented solution rather than an accuracy-oriented solution.
Let’s start with Image classification to understand the concept of object detection.
Image classification assigns an image to an object which can be a car, dog, or bus. Thus, it only answers the question: What is in the image? It only works on…
