You Only Look Once (YOLO): Unified, Real-time Object Detection
Object detection is a fundamental task in computer vision that involves identifying and locating objects of interest within an image or video. Unlike image classification, which assigns a single label to an entire image, object detection provides both the category and the precise location of objects by outputting bounding boxes around them. This dual capability makes it a crucial technology for a wide range of applications, including autonomous driving, medical imaging, and augmented reality.
