# Computer Vision

**Computer Vision** is a field of Artificial Intelligence that enables machines to interpret and understand visual information from the world, such as images and videos.

Its goal is to replicate human visual perception using algorithms and models.

Common Computer Vision tasks include:

* Image classification
* Object detection
* Face recognition
* Image segmentation
* Video analysis

Computer Vision primarily uses Deep Learning models, especially Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs).
