Opening

Hey everyone. Today I want to show you something surprisingly simple: how a tiny 3×3 grid of numbers can transform a jumble of pixels into something a machine can recognize. We’ll break down what convolutions actually do, why they matter, and how they became the foundation of computer vision.

Closing

That’s the heart of the convolution revolution - simple filters, repeated many times, learning to extract meaning from pixels. Thank you for listening

Ever seen one of these?

Select all the squares with traffic lights - to prove you're human. But the crazy part? A robot is grading your work. Yep, sometimes just a simple convolution network with nothing but a little bit of math and few filters could reliably figure out if you are a human and not a robot.

Conclusion

So the next time you’re clicking boxes to prove you’re human, remember:
the machine on the other end is ‘seeing’ through stacks of tiny filters - and that simple math is what makes modern vision possible.

Why can't computers just see?

  • Images essentially are just a HUGE pile of numbers (for computers)
  • Light, angle, sizes constantly change. We can't just compare image of known object to our unknown image
  • We are looking for a way to detect PATTERNS across images

This would give machine just as much information as you could gain from it
