Object Detection with Deep Learning or Machine Learning
Object detection is a computer vision task that involves identifying and locating objects within an image or video. It combines image classification and localization to detect multiple objects and assign labels to them. Deep machine learning techniques, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Transformers, are widely used for object detection due to their high accuracy and performance. Here are the steps in ArcGIS Pro for object detection using a pre-trained mod
