recognition vs classification
The field of recognition or pattern recognition is concerned with the automatic discovery of regularities in data through the use of computer algorithms and with the use of these regularities to take actions such as classifying the data into different categories. An example of pattern recognition is classification, which attempts to assign each input value to one of a given set of classes. However, pattern recognition is a more general problem that encompasses other types of output as well, for example, regression.
大意就是:
识别是对数据(比如图像)进行寻找规律、抽取特征,然后应用所得到的规律和特征实现某些目的(如分类、回归)的过程。所以分类只是识别的一个具体例子。
图像识别的定义
图像识别,是指利用计算机对图像进行处理、分析和理解,以识别各种不同模式的目标和对象的技术。
Image recognition is the ability of a computer powered camera to identify and detect objects or features in a digital image or video. It is a method for capturing, processing, examining, and sympathizing images.
Image recognition technology works by detecting salient regions, which are portions that contain the most information about the image or the object. It does this by isolating the most informative portions or features in a selected image and localizes them, while ignoring the rest of the features that may not be of much interest.

============================
Image recognition, a subcategory of Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence, represents a set of methods for detecting and analyzing images to enable the automation of a specific task. It is a technology that is capable of identifying places, people, objects and many other types of elements within an image, and drawing conclusions from them by analyzing them.
Photo or video recognition can be performed at different degrees of accuracy, depending on the type of information or concept required. Indeed, a model or algorithm is capable of detecting a specific element, just as it can simply assign an image to a large category.
So there are different “tasks” that image recognition can perform:
- Classification. It is the identification of the “class”, i.e. the category to which an image belongs. An image can have only one class.
- Tagging. It is also a classification task but with a higher degree of accuracy. It can recognize the presence of several concepts or objects within an image. One or more tags can therefore be assigned to a particular image.
- Detection. This is necessary when you want to locate an object in an image. Once the object is located, a bounding box is placed around the object in question.
- Segmentation. This is also a detection task. Segmentation can locate an element on an image to the nearest pixel. For some cases, it is necessary to be extremely precise, as for the development of autonomous cars.
