Object Detection & Semantic Segmentation Primer — Reading "What Is Where" From an Image
Object Detection draws boxes around things; Semantic Segmentation colors in every pixel by meaning. From the difference between the two, through Instance and Panoptic Segmentation, the lineage from R-CNN to YOLO, DETR and DINO, all the way to their 3D point-cloud counterparts — a systematic tour of the fundamentals of scene understanding.
