scene understanding

Scene understanding is the technology that enables computers to interpret and analyze visual information from images or videos. It involves recognizing objects, their locations, relationships, and the overall context within a scene. This helps machines grasp what is happening, such as identifying cars on a street, pedestrians, or signs, much like humans do when observing an environment. Scene understanding is fundamental for applications like autonomous vehicles, robotics, and surveillance, allowing systems to make informed decisions based on the environment they perceive.
