What Is Object Detection?
This article was originally published at MathWorks’ website. It is reprinted here with the permission of MathWorks. 3 Things You Need to Know Object detection is a computer vision technique for locating instances of objects in images or videos. Object detection algorithms typically leverage machine learning or deep learning to produce meaningful results. When humans

“Object Detection for Embedded Markets,” a Presentation from Imagination Technologies
Paul Brasnett, PowerVR Business Development Director for Vision and AI at Imagination Technologies, presents the “Object Detection for Embedded Markets” tutorial at the May 2019 Embedded Vision Summit. While image classification was the breakthrough use case for deep learning-based computer vision, today it has a limited number of real-world applications. In contrast, object detection is
