Answer the following :
1. What is Computer Vision?
Ans : Computer Vision (CV), is a domain of AI that depicts the capability of a
machine to get and analyse visual information and predict some decisions
about it. This process involves image acquiring, screening, analysing,
identifying and extracting information.
2. Name some applications of computer vision.
Ans : Face recognition, Face filters, Google lens (image search), Self Driving
cars, Medical imaging, in retail sales, Google translation apps
3. Explain any two applications of Computer vision.
Ans :1) Facial Recognition - Face recognition is a method of identifying or
verifying the identity of an individual using their face in photos, video, or in
real-time.
2) Face filters : Face filters are the image editing tools that uses artificial
intelligence and augmented reality to modify the style of one’s image.
3) Google search by image – is an AI app used to search information using
images.
4) Self driving cars - is a car that is capable of travelling without human input
and uses a combination of sensors, cameras, radar and AI to travel between
destinations.
5) Google translation app – helps the users to visually translate printed text
into different languages.
6) Medical imaging - This application is used to read and convert 2D scan
images into interactive 3D models that enable medical professionals to gain a
detailed understanding of a patient’s health condition.
7) CV in Retail selling – helps in managing inventory, better customer
experience, object detection, layout management, maintain Self-checkout and
cashier-less stores etc.
4. List out the different computer vision tasks.
Ans : The tasks used in a computer vision application are, a) for single object
– classification, classification + localization b) for multiple objects – Object
detection, instance segmentation
5. What is classification in CV?
Ans : Image Classification problem is the task of assigning an input image one
label from a fixed set of categories. It has a large variety of practical
applications.
6. What is Classification and localization?
Ans : This is the task which involves both processes of identifying what object
is present in the image and at the same time identifying at what location that
object is present in that image. It is used only for single objects.
7. Define Object detection.
Ans : Object detection is the process of finding instances of real-world objects
