Image classification and object detection have gained widespread use in recent years. Content categorization and monitoring, disease diagnosis from medical images, identifying terrain in satellite images, and detecting road elements for self-driving cars are classification problems at their core. PyTorch is a popular framework for these tasks—offering a useful mix of user-friendliness, deep learning functionalities, customization, and optimization.

In this course, you will cover the fundamentals of classification and object detection models and apply them to actual datasets using PyTorch. You’ll learn popular architectures and how to implement and fine-tune them for better results. Finally, you’ll learn to convert models to ONNX and OpenVINO to deploy in edge devices.

By the end of this course, you will have acquired the necessary skills to be able to use PyTorch for image identification and object detection in real-world applications

Using PyTorch for Image Classification and Object Detection

Which is the correct term for predicting the coordinates of an object?

Which is the correct term for predicting the coordinates of an object?

Which can be used for the same problem definition with multiclass classification?

Which can be used for the same problem definition with multiclass classification?

They are identical terms, without having any difference between each other.

Region of interest is used in classification, bounding box is for object detection.

Regions of interest refer to region proposals that the model produces, whereas bounding boxes are specific regions selected from within the regions of interest.

Bounding boxes refer to region proposals that the model produces, whereas regions of interest are specific regions selected from within the bounding boxes.

What is the difference between the region of interest and bounding boxes?

What is the difference between the region of interest and bounding boxes?

Since object detection involves object localization tasks along with classification, it’s more complicated than image classification.


Bounding box prediction is a linear regression problem.

Object recognition and object detection are the same.


For linear regression problems, the softmax function is the best choice.

**(Select all that apply.)** Which statement is _true_?

(Select all that apply.) Which statement is true?

Softmax regression is used for classification.

Binary classification is used only for two classes.

One-stage detectors don't predict the location of the object.

Two-stage detectors first classify the objects and then propose the regions.
