COMPUTER VISION (CV)
Computer Vision is a very popular field of AI that trains a computer to understand and interpret the visual
world. Human vision starts at the “eyes” but machine uses digital images from a camera for vision.
Deep learning models and machines accurately identify and classify objects that act according to what they see,
using digital images from camera.
According to Fei-Fei Li, Computer Vision is defined as “a subset of mainstream artificial intelligence that deals with
the science of making computers or machines visually enabled, i.e., they can analyse and understand an image.”
Applications of Computer Vision
From recognizing to analysing the live action of a football game, Computer Vision not only challenges but also
surpasses human visual abilities in various areas. Let us understand some of the real time uses of Computer
Vision.
Self-driving cars use computer vision to examine their surroundings and plan its path. Drones can use computer
vision to examine the health of crops and alert the farmers of the crop's condition. In the healthcare industry,
computer vision can be used to check the patient's image and determine the ailment. Computer Vision is also
used for security and surveillance systems.
Artificial Intelligence
ADVANTAGES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
It is a widely known fact that, the capabilities of the
human mind vary from time to time, situation to situation,
their surroundings, and physical and mental exertion.
Whereas, AI on the other hand, has no such limitation
and can function efficiently even under harsh conditions.
Similarly, AI also has some other advantages over human
intelligence.
Process Automation
Humans have the tendency to get bored while performing repetitive tasks, which can hamper their productivity.
Such tasks can be done by intelligent machines without any external intervention, allowing humans to engage in
more demanding and creative tasks.
