ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks" by Alex Krizhevsky, Ilya Sutskever, and Geoffrey Hinton (2012) This paper introduced the deep convolutional neural network (CNN) called AlexNet, which achieved a breakthrough in the ImageNet challenge, revolutionizing the field of computer vision. "Mask R-CNN" by Kaiming He, Georgia Gkioxari, Piotr Dollar, and Ross B. Girshick (2017) This paper introduces Mask R-CNN, an extension of Faster R-CNN for object detection and instance segmentation. It has become one of the most cited papers in modern computer vision. "YOLO: You Only Look Once" by Joseph Redmon, Santosh Divvala, Ross B. Girshick, and Ali Farhadi (2016) This paper presents the YOLO (You Only Look Once) algorithm, a fast and efficient method for real-time object detection. "U-Net: Convolutional Networks for Biomedical Image Segmentation" by Olaf Ronneberger, Philipp Fischer, and Thomas Brox (2015) This paper proposes U-Net, a CNN architecture for semantic segmentation in medical images. It has been widely used for segmentation tasks across various domains. "SIFT: Scale-Invariant Feature Transform" by David Lowe (1999) This classic paper introduced SIFT, an algorithm for detecting and describing local features in images, which has been a cornerstone for tasks like object recognition and matching. "Deep Learning for Computer Vision" by Rajalingappaa Shanmugamani (2017) This book provides a comprehensive introduction to computer vision using deep learning techniques. It's helpful for both beginners and those looking to delve deeper into applications.
