[Deep Learning]
Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).
A neural network architecture designed for processing grid-like data such as images.
In-depth explanation
01CNNs use convolutional layers that apply learnable filters across input data to detect local patterns like edges, textures, and shapes. Pooling layers reduce dimensionality while preserving important features. The hierarchical structure allows CNNs to learn increasingly abstract representations, making them powerful for computer vision tasks.
