Insight of the Week
The Ultimate Guide to Image Recognition Technology
Computer vision is like teaching computers to understand pictures. One important job it does is recognizing what’s in a picture, and putting things into categories. Humans are naturally great at this because when we look at something, we not only identify what’s in it, but we also understand the context and relate different things. However, for computers, this is a big challenge that needs a lot of processing power. Despite this, the global market for image recognition is estimated to reach $10.53 billion in revenue by the end of the year.
