Object Detection​

Object Detection is a computer vision task in which the goal is to detect and locate objects of interest in an image or video.
It involves identifying the position and boundaries of objects, and classifying them into different categories.

Person Detection​

Person Detection is based on object detection systems that can classify detected objects as human.
It is used in many sectors: security, insurance, nursing, health, and production.

Face Detection​

Facial Detection is the task of identifying faces in a photo or video against a database.
It begins with detection (distinguishing faces) and continues with identification.

Pose Estimation​

Pose Estimation detects the position and orientation of a person or object.
Usually done by predicting keypoints like hands, head, elbows, etc.
