From Image Classification to Object Detection
Learn about the connection between image classification and object detection.
Image classification vs. object detection
While the image classification problem focuses on classifying the images, in object detection, there might be more than one object we’re searching for. Our task is to find all of them placed in the most appropriate boxes with their belonging classes. Therefore, our goal is relatively more complex than image classification. We have to first detect the objects by locating them with bounding boxes, then classify them to decide which class this box (thing) belongs to.
